Item Open Access Exclusive Dealing in New Zealand Alcoholic Beverage Markets(Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, 1998) Mulcare, TimThis paper analyses exclusive dealing in New Zealand alcoholic beverage markets. Various explanations were used to argue against statutory prohibitions on exclusive dealing in New Zealand alcoholic beverage markets at the turn of the twentieth century. These markets were probably the first in New Zealand where exclusive dealing was used.Item Open Access The Political Economy of Six O'clock Closing(Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, 1999) Mulcare, TimPublic bars in New Zealand traded from nine o'clock a.m. to six o'clock p.m. from Monday to Saturday between 1917 and 1967 despite the fact that demand was concentrated on five out of six trading days in the hour before closing. The statutory closing of bars at six o'clock p.m. in 1917 was initially a wartime regulation to restrict consumption of a narcotic; this paper suggests that it was extended because it was favoured by key interest groups namely trade unions hotel owners and prohibition organisations.
