Treaty Principles in Legislation: What NZ Needs to Understand
What does the Treaty of Waitangi actually require of our laws? Samuel Carpenter from Laidlaw College and Charm Skinner from the Salvation Army NZ join us to unpack the complexities of reviewing government legislation through the lens of the Treaty. We go beyond the "what" and "how" to explore the question many New Zealanders are still wrestling with: the fundamental "why" behind our Treaty obligations.

The Hidden Game: Complex Relationship Between US, China and Russia
There's been a train of global leaders heading to Beijing, where Chinese President Xi Jinping is playing host to a changing axis of power.
An International Relations specialist says America has declined in the esteem of its allies as well as its adversaries. Professor Robert Patman explains that while the Trump Administration's departure from US foreign policy benefits Russia and China, the surface diplomacy belies deeper security and trade tensions between the three superpowers.
