Date2001Shelf Number324.9 ARABarcode3 3001 00081382 3DescriptionA Directed Study supervised by Dr.Patrick Barratt University of Waikato, Tauranga 2001.

From 1876 to 1938, Tauranga experienced slow growth and was represented in Parliament by individuals with diverse personalities and political affiliations. The text delves into key election campaigns, electoral behavior, and changes in franchise to illustrate the political evolution of the area. The challenges Tauranga faced, such as isolation and public land demand, are examined in relation to the effectiveness of parliamentary representation in securing governmental aid. The growth of party politics is also explored, highlighting the rise and decline of the Liberal Party, the impact of industrial strife and World War I, and the eventual ascendance of the Labour Party in 1935.CreatorArabin, ShirleyFormatBookPhysical Description35 leaves ; 30 cm.
