Maori Prophetic Movements as Sites of Political Resistance: A Critical Analysis. Rangiwai, B. Te Kaharoa, November, 2017. ![Maori Prophetic Movements as Sites of Political Resistance: A Critical Analysis [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper doi abstract bibtex This article will argue that Māori prophetic movements were sites of political resistance where Māori prophets resisted colonisation and developed syncretic theologies that gave their followers a sense of hope within a tumultuous colonial environment. The movements of four Māori prophets will be discussed in chronological order: Te Atua Wera and the Nākahi movement; Te Ua Haumēne and the Pai Mārire or Hauhau movement; Te Kooti’s Ringatū movement; and Rua Kēnana and the Iharaira movement. This article will critically analyse these Māori prophetic movements as sites of religious and political resistance to show how Māori prophets challenged colonisation and land loss.
