註釋

"Remaking the Tasman World explores New Zealandѫs most important and extensive relationship ئ with Australia ئ on a variety of levels over the past century. The authors present a combined narrative about a ѵTasman worldѫ, a working region defined by a history of traffic in ideas, policies, objects and people. This wide-ranging, fresh analysis focuses on myriad ѵcommunities of interestѫ that have spanned the Tasman Sea for over a hundred years, yet have largely been ignored by national histories. The concept of Australasia ئ the British world south of Asia ئ may have become old hat, but a Tasman world still operated, and in an increasing rush from the 1960s. From early maps of Australasia to accounts of shared state experiments, of a trans-Tasman business world, sport and Anzac bonds, the authors unearth a common past and reorder it in a history infused with wit and insight. They also look forward, envisioning a fresh start for a trans-Tasman community facing the 21st century."--Publisher's website.
