The French-Speaking Pacific: Population, environment and development issues
Edited by CHRISTIAN JOST
Brisbane: Boombana Publications, 1998
(272 pages, 243 x 174 mm, PB, ill., ISBN 1 876542 02 0) This volume is an important contribution to our understanding of the geography of the Pacific Island countries. It consists of a series of studies on the French-speaking Pacific Territories (Vanuatu, New Caledonia, French Polynesia, Wallis and Futuna), the greater part of which are the fruit of entirely new and original work. It then both constitutes an in depth presentation of these territories, their particularities, their problems, and contains much food for thought in its analyses of the natural (terrestrial and marine) and the human (socio-cultural and economic) environments of these islands. French research on the Island Pacific has long been substantial and often of exceptionally high quality. It has markedly been transformed by the appearance, in the 1980s and 1990s, of a new generation of Pacific geographers whose scholarship has developed within the Islands themselves rather than having been transposed from other parts of the tropical world. This is a key publication for geographers, a unique resource for teachers, a reference for all those concerned with the question of effectively managing the future of the Pacific Islands. It will also prove invaluable to professionals in many fields who have research, cultural or trade interests in the region. For the general public, it is a much needed complement to commonly available tourist-oriented presentations of the Islands.

    Introduction
    Have you ever heard of Tahiti? When did I first hear the name Tahiti? Was it in a pirate film? A brochure for a tropical island pleasure cruise? Geography lessons back at school? I can’t remember. As for the name "French Polynesia", that came to my attention at the time of the recent French nuclear testing on Mururoa atoll in Tuamotu.
    Greetings, fellow "Frenchmen"!
    In my ignorance, I thought Pacific islands were independent, member states of the Commonwealth, or else belonged to the United States. Half of my own country is also a French dependency (the other half being a Spanish one) so I was curious to know how my "fellow" (!) citizens were doing under the care of our common metropolitan protectors. So I have updated my knowledge of the political distribution of the Oceanic area, looking up facts in atlases, browsing through the Internet and reading the few books and encyclopaedias on the subject that I could get hold of in the Basque Country. (I recommend "The Flight of the Amokura" by Richard Benton.)
