Read article at Massey Research Online:

Interactions based on cultural practices have heralded a new era of the 鈥榲irtual marae鈥� (places of gathering) where language, customs, and whanaungatanga (relationships) are practiced daily on social networking sites (SNS). Ms O鈥機arroll investigated the tensions that Maori face as they negotiate virtual spaces and navigate new territories of SNS, highlighting the pressures on kanohi ki te kanohi (face鈥搕o-face) practice. Through mainly qualitative exploration of these data, the domains of rangatahi (Maori) usage, whanaungatanga, tuakiritanga, and tikanga were traversed in order to interrogate the contemporary ideas and trajectory of kanohi ki te kanohi values. Ms O鈥機arroll鈥檚 study highlights the range of issues that Maoridom must grapple with in order to guide SNS usage in cultural contexts that consider kanohi ki te kanohi values and the future of marae.
