This document discusses Maori tribal organization in pre-colonial and post-colonial New Zealand. It describes the three levels of Maori social structure: whanau (family), hapu (sub-tribe), and iwi (tribe). It notes how tribal organization began to change after British colonization, with many Maori moving to cities and tribal power reducing, though iwi still exist and Maori now often try to reconnect with their heritage.
