Due to frequent splintering, there are around twenty political parties or organizations in New Zealand which follow socialist or communist policies, none of which have an uncontested claim to dominance. As such, it is often difficult to gain a clear picture of socialist parties in New Zealand - mergers, splits, and renamings leave the situation confused. Furthermore, many of the parties have conflicting accounts of various events.

—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
“Teasing is universal. Anthropologists have found the same fundamental patterns of teasing among New Zealand aborigine children and inner-city kids on the playgrounds of Philadelphia.”
