Objective: An initial exploration of the available conceptualizations of privilege in Aotearoa/New Zealand with the goal of developing a more in-depth qualitative study, incorporating kaupapa Maori and public health framings. Design: Interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of key informants that span the academic, community development, health service provision, and activist sectors. Participants were selected from multiple networks for their expressed interest and insight into the concept of privilege and its importance to analyses of social justice. Results: Six key themes emerged that include the invisibility of privilege; the weighting of different variables; individual vs group privilege; class; the active aspects of privilege; and links between privilege and Pakeha culture. Conclusion: Participants' constructions of privilege emphasize the multifaceted complexity and discursive ambiguities of the ways in which the concept is utilized within our political economy to account for disparity and covertly reproduce the status quo of Pakeha advantage.
Race/Ethnicity offers a critical intervention in contemporary thinking on race and ethnicity by recognizing and responding to shared challenges. Through a multidisciplinary approach, a concern with race and ethnicity on the global scale, and a willingness simultaneously to engage theory, practice, and other forms of knowledge, the journal offers new ways for scholars, activists, and practitioners to exchange vital information, perspectives, and insights. It publishes comprehensive investigations in the global field of race and ethnic studies and promotes scholarship that robustly investigates the dynamics of racialized operations of power, its impediments to and facilitation of democratic practice and policy, and analysis of mechanisms by which different human destinies are intertwined. All issues are topical and feature a classic field piece and original essays that map the evolution of scholarly engagement with the theme. It is a joint publication of The Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity and the Office of Minority Affairs, both at The Ohio State University, and Indiana University Press.
