Abstract
The restructuring of the national economy of New Zealand in the last decade of the 20th century left its mark on education generally, with some quite specific consequences for geographical education in the secondary sector. This review of commentaries and research on geographical education considers debates about curriculum development, the changing assessment regime and the influence of geography educators on contemporary pedagogy.
