EDITORIAL | I Like The Richardson Building

EDITORIAL | I Like The Richardson Building Some of you will hate me for what I’m about to write. But it has to be said. The best building on the Otago campus is not the clocktower.

New Zealand challenged by Māori academics to decolonise its legal training

Now it looks like that project is being picked up in earnest. Moves are happening at multiple levels. Political commentators have noted how Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has appointed Māori and Pasifika MPs to cover the justice-related portfolios in her second-term Cabinet.

Poto Williams is Police Minister, while Kris Faafoi replaces Andrew Little as the Justice Minister. These are symbolic top-level steps, if nothing else. However, decolonisation is a broad project. And flying slightly under the radar has been a call by Māori law academics for a grassroots reform of legal training.
