About this research
This project explored how Māori migrants, while striving for greater economic development, have nonetheless been able to maintain a distinctive Māori identity. A particular focus of the research was how these overseas Māori groups see the relationship between their cultural identity as Māori and their pursuit and achievement of economic success. The project looked at how these overseas communities and individuals perceive their relationship to ‘home’ and the new forms of Māori governance structures that have emerged in the last twenty years in New Zealand, as well as investigating the novel forms of community governance structures that they themselves have created.

Since the 1950s, the advancements in second language acquisition and grammar theories in English language studies has had a profound impact on its own description that has made it less syntactically-driven and more communicatively-oriented. This has the potential to influence language description moving it from a purely structurally-focused orientation to a more semantically-focused one that is more suited to the pedagogic context.
Nevertheless, in the case of the Māori language, its description continues to be dominated by structural linguistics that was prevalent in the 19th and early 20th centuries, making no concessions to the possibility of a semantic analysis and this, in turn, is reflected in grammar books and textbooks on te reo.
