The Effects of Social Policy Upon the Tongan Family

A story of two worlds, the impact of Social Policy upon Tongan-born parents and their New Zealand- born youth

Beschreibung

The unforseen effect of policies on families. As a practitioner and an inside-reasearcher within my own Tongan community I know and understand that the family is who you identify with and how others identify you. This book provides a socio-historical overview of Tongan culture from the creation myth to the introduction of the modern Tonga, the monarchy, the migration of the Tongan-born parents to New Zealand and an illustration of the conflicting worlds that exist between the New Zealand-born youth and their Tonga-born parents
