The treatment of scrofula by the ceremony of the royal touch between the 11th century and the 18th century in England is considered in historical perspective. Similar treatments for an analogous clinical situation have been encountered in clinical ethnopsychiatric practice in the New Zealand Maori. A theory of origin for ceremonies of the royal touch is proposed in the light of these clinical observations.

In this paper, the author presents an historical perspective on the New Zealand labour market, placing the present employment crisis into its post-war perspective. The structural recession which commenced in the mid-1980s has placed huge stresses on the working age population. Just as the 1930s depression had a long-term impact on female workforce participation, the present crisis can be expected to permanently modify labour supply trends. The analysis focuses on income effects, with particular reference to responses to expectations of and changes in household incomes.

<p>This study is a qualitative content analysis of the magazines and newspapers produced on New Zealand troopships between 1914 and 1920. It begins with an account of the troopships, the printing of the magazines and the individuals involved. The bulk of the study is concerned with a thematic analysis of the troopship publications from a cultural historical perspective. These themes are; troopship life, army life, attitudes to war, national identity, race and gender. The content analysis and interpretation considers the magazines as media products of a particular social group and examines the ways in which this group represented itself. The roles of official discourse, propaganda and resistance in the troopship publications are analysed and the interactions between these and the functions of the publications are explicated. The conclusion assesses the publications' position in the context of discussions of cultural rupture and continuity and finds that they emphasise the latter.</p>
