Abstract
In New Zealand, "traditional" Maori identity has been legitimated and encouraged mainly in the political and judicial trend of "Maori Renaissance" and "retribalization". However from the analysis of the fieldwork among the Maori teenagers living in the city, it comes clear that they re/construct and maintain alternative Maori identity which is multi-layered and characterized by new cultural marks.
