Follow-up to Peace, Power and Politics

There is to be a follow-up to the Peace, Power and Politics in Asia Conference held in Wellington earlier this year.

On August 17 and 18 a conference on New Zealand's foreign policy will be held at the University of Waikato, Hamilton.

The conference aims to examine fully all aspects of foreign policy in the light of the changing world situation. It will be a "critical" conference presenting views uncongenial to the popular press.

Topics for discussion include alternatives for New Zealand and the consequences of re-alignment; the implications of the communique of the Peace, Power and Politics conference.

It will also seek to obtain unambiguous statements from the three major political parties.

One overseas speaker, Professor Duvilliers, a French authority on Asian history, is expected to attend.

Fee for the conference is available to students at $2.50. Meals and refreshments will be available. Further information is obtainable from the Secretary/Treasurer, P.O. Box 559, Hamilton.
