Matthew Palmer and Dean Knight's new book, The Constitution of New Zealand: A Contextual Analysis, makes its principal aim clear on its first page: to provide a "realist" account of New Zealand's "anachronistic" yet "rich" and "charming" constitution.1 The focus is explicitly on understanding and contextualising the performance of constitutional life, not the dry study of constitutional text. This approach seeks to set the book apart from other recent texts on New Zealand constitutional law, but it also makes plain the authors' intellectual orientation. The first section of this review provides an overview of what is an accessible and thoughtful contribution to New Zealand constitutional scholarship. The second section considers what a "constitutional realism" account actually is and what, if anything, that perspective adds to our thinking about New Zealand constitutional law.
