ECONOMIC REFORMS IN NEW ZEALAND
L. STEFANCHUK, Candidate of Historical Sciences WHY THEIR STUDY AND ANALYSIS CAN BE USEFUL FOR RUSSIA New Zealand is a relatively young country, it appeared on the world map in the first half of the XIX century. It was created as a migrant colony of Great Britain and for a long time was actually its agricultural farm. Today it is a developed industrial and agricultural state with a population of 4 million people, 610 thousand of whom are descendants of indigenous Maori people.
