註釋
New Zealanders ended the twentieth-century by electing a Labour-Alliance government led by Prime Minister Helen Clark. The 1999 election was the second under the country's proportional representation system, MMP, and was held after three years of colourful and controversial politics that left many disenchanted. This book looks at the campaign, how people voted and why, and the formation of the minority centre-left coalition. It highlights the key election issues and the leadership contest between Jenny Shipley and Helen Clark, as well as the referenda on the size of Parliament and on the justice system. Based on the post-election conference held at Victoria University, this book includes contributions from the country's leading journalists and political scientists, as well as representatives from all the parties which won seats in Parliament.
