The New Zealand State and Educational Reforms: "Competing" Interests.
Gordon, Liz
Comparative Education, v28 n3 p281-91 1992
Describes market reforms in New Zealand education from 1984 when the Labour government had control, to the present system under the National government. Prior to reforms, New Zealand had an equitable homogeneous system. Reforms have led to inequality, particularly to the disadvantage of Maori people, and may have lowered educational standards. (KS)
