This study is largely based on 93 interviews conducted in the 1990s with current or ex-New Zealand Jews of widely differing backgrounds. Ch. 5 (pp. 85-99) discusses antisemitism (as do pp. 15-18, 28-30 in ch. 1). Jews in New Zealand (who in 1991 numbered 3,048 or 0.1% of the total population) generally have kept a low profile. Most of the interviewees view present-day antisemitism as slight, despite some anti-Jewish Christian attitudes. Four types of antisemitism are noted: ignorant, petty (e.g. jokes), political (including anti-Zionist and anti-Israel), and malicious (including vandalism and Holocaust denial). Local Jews have been cautious in responding to antisemitism, though there has been some effort to speak out. While the identities of survivors and their descendants have been strongly affected by the Holocaust, those of other new Zealand Jews have not. Commemoration of the Holocaust has been much more modest than in Australia or in Israel. Some Jews continue to feel that "'it' could happen again, even in New Zealand".

"Why New Zealand? Some had heard of Australia, but New Zealand? For me it was absolutely the right decision - there was nowhere further away from Germany." - Hansi Silberstein *** Police hold placards in front of Jewish shops, emblazoned with the words "Don't buy from Jews." Others put up signs to identify places where Jews are to be denied entry. Jewish shop owners are terrorized into relinquishing their businesses. Homes are visited by the Gestapo, who take family members away. The year is 1933 and this is life in the Fuhrer's Germany. In the ensuing years, it is clear, nowhere in Europe is safe. But how can people find a way to escape 'fortress Europe' and where are they to go? Promised New Zealand is the true tale of Jewish citizens who fled the Nazi terror in Europe for a safe haven on the opposite side of the world in New Zealand. This narrative skillfully interweaves the lives of 24 Jewish exiles - including Viennese philosopher Karl Popper, German author Karl Wolfskehl, and the

Beyond Betrayal delves into New Zealand's pioneering history, and asks why such promising partnerships descended into decades of distrust. After the Treaty of Waitangi was signed, a succession of governors resisted missionary advice, despite their local knowledge and peacemaking skills, and influenced a raft of misunderstandings that provoked violent outbreaks across the country. The rise of Maori prophetic movements, and an intense desire for Maori to have a unified political voice, saw allegiances split between those supporting the government and those frustrated at failed Treaty promises. The pressure to surrender tribal lands had the same impact – a shattered economy and a dispossessed people. The thrilling follow-up to Keith Newman's bestselling Bible & Treaty, Beyond Betrayal looks behind the events that led to the first Maori land protests, and follows the unfolding drama through the stories of the early missionaries and Maori heroes of the faith. These dramatic and heartrending tales of injustice, sacrifice and redemption form an important and often misunderstood backdrop to the wider New Zealand story – one of the most turbulent periods in our history, told with skill, sensitivity and heart.
