摘要
Sport has influenced our national identity, as well as the identities of many who have participated in it. Although contemporary sporting cultures are often reflective of wider society, scrutiny of New Zealand sport, particularly rugby union, as one of our oldest and most popular national sports, can reveal a closer link to our imperial history. Sports in New Zealand have provided a platform for social mobility for many Maori athletes. However, along with the achievements that have been available as a result of sporting prowess, there have also been more negative ramifications, including social control and constructed sporting and cultural identities. With a focus on two particular case studies from New Zealand's sporting history, this article will discuss certain nuances of cultural politics in the realm of New Zealand sport.
