Editor's Note: The following film documentary is conveniently presented in 18 parts, each covering a different sub-topic and each ranging in length from approximately 6 to 10 minutes. The segments can be viewed in their entirety or according to the viewer's interest, by title. They examine geopolitics and New Zealand's national security and foreign policy from multiple perspectives. The documentary was aired on New Zealand's Rialto TV in 2005. It was produced by Scott Ewing, a New Zealand journalist and producer and guest writer on Axis of Logic. Because it addresses national defence in New Zealand, one might think this documentary is irrelevant for other nations. Not so. It has relevance for every person and country who has interest in the need, purpose and nature of national defence systems.
