Cultural Safety - The Outcome not the Intentions Way, Karena This paper addresses the proposed name change of a nursing and midwifery course from Te Tiriti Waitangi/Institutional Racism to 'Cultural Safety'.

This programme includes an intensive process of historical and cultural self examination for students, and teaches revisionist history. The authors contrast the cultural safety model with trans cultural nursing which does not require students to examine their own cultural realities, attitudes and behaviors nor the impact these have on others.

Definition and analysis of White racism Steinberg, D "Racism has become a prominent subject these days. It has been "discovered" in much the same way as Captain Cook "discovered" NZ - it had had a factual existence for a long time previously. Suddenly racism becomes a word on everyone's lips; concern with racism becomes a national phenomenon." This paper looks at the distinctions between prejudice and bigotry and racism.
