Abstract

This short paper is a synoptic account of a still embryonic research program on industrial relations in French Pacific Territories; a region where labour relations have not been the focus of academic attention. Field work started in 2011 and is ongoing. The first step of the research was inductive and essentially aimed at identifying what would be the relevant research questions to be raised. I will discuss emergent research questions after presenting initial observations stemming from the first round of interviews conducted in New Caledonia and Polynesia.
