title: Rejoinder

authors: Kelly, Martin

abstract: Our paper (Kelly et al., 1999) set out to have points recognized as ‘needing to be addressed’ on the agendas of institutions currently providing accounting education. We believe that many institutions are continuing to fail to respond to recognized problems. We are grateful to the Commentators for recognizing our purpose. They note that our paper:
1. raises some important issues which need to be urgently addressed (Commentator 1);
2. illuminates why it is dif  cult to implement change even when there is a consensus to do so (Commentator 2);
3. provides a very important theme which has been neglected by many accounting educators (Commentator 3).

title: Piahana Hou: a Ngati Rahiri rangatira

authors: Hart, Philip

abstract: Piahana Hou, as the half-brother of Karauna Hou, had an illustrious ancestry, but to Pakeha he was known as, briefly, the skipper of a river steamer and, for most of his life, as a labourer. His interests in several blocks of land enabled him to obtain money through selling some of his holdings, but he never became prosperous. He had minimal involvement in mining at Te Aroha.
Piahana came to prominence not as a rangatira but as a drunk, who was even involved in a bar fight at Te Aroha. Despite this weakness, his high status meant that hundreds attended his splendid tangi. Unlike some other rangatira, he did not use his status to play an important role in either Maori or Pakeha society.

title: Refusal of orders: The case of William Douglas Home

authors: Smith, Ron C.

subjects: Douglas Home

abstract: Based largely on the William Douglas Home court martial documents of 1944 and the three autobiographies that Douglas Home wrote, this article is an examination of the widely accepted principle that soldiers who are given orders that are ‘manifestly unlawful’ (Nuremberg) have an obligation to refuse them.  The peculiarities of the case in terms of the personality and social status of the accused and its uniqueness (Douglas Home is the only prosecution from amongst some three million persons serving in the British forces in World War Two) raise significant questions about this obligation.
