The interrelationships between contemporary political & economic changes in Aotearoa/New Zealand & the articulation between gender, ethnic, & class identities in New Zealand society are examined. Postcolonial politics in New Zealand has criticized the hegemonic role of the descendants of European colonizing settlers, & class & gender concerns have typically been subordinated to those of ethnicity. Identity politics has evolved, pitting white against Maori. Increasing participation of nonwhites in political & government activities is increasing the heterogeneity, as well as the tensions, of civil society. The politicization of women & the development of local versions of feminism are discussed. Internationalization of the New Zealand economy is creating conditions in which cross-sectional forms of resistance based not on common identity, but on shared purpose, are required. 57 References.

Consistent with an ongoing experience of neo-liberal experimentation, tertiary sector reform in New Zealand is being driven by the ambition to re-create universities in a qualitatively new form. We argue that, through calculative practices, New Zealand universities are being positioned and are positioning themselves in the neo-liberalizing spaces of university education. In turn, these calculative practices are giving rise to new views of the university and altering the behaviours of staff and students. We draw attention not only to the constitutive power of calculative practices, but also to the political contestations that surround them. Our conclusion is that, because of these contestations, the spaces and subjectivities of the neo-liberalizing university are multiple and contradictory. The attempted reinvention of New Zealand universities will have varied effects and give rise to multiple political forms.

This paper argues for moving away from a linear understanding of feminism which assumes that past feminism produces present and future feminism as a response to its previous waves. Instead, we argue for embracing the multiplicity and simultaneity of contemporary feminisms, taking inspiration from Elizabeth Grosz's writings on futurity and Cindi Katz's work on resistance, resilience and reworking. Drawing on Katz's framing, we review three analytically distinct ways to conceptualise feminist politics and consider how feminist geographers are asking new questions of familiar domains, as well as finding gender formations and political possibilities in unexpected empirical sites.

ABSTRACTWe test experimentally whether decisions in 2 × 2 games with mixed equilibria depend on the co‐player being nature or a human agent. Controlling for social preferences, we find differences in decisions in the chicken game and battle of the sexes but not for stag hunt and matching pennies. We attribute these to subjects' perception of the other's intentionality and disapproval avoidance in particular.
