French elections reverberate in New Caledonia

    Research output: Contribution to specialist publicationGeneral Article

    Abstract

    You might wonder whether the result of the recent second round of French departmental elections with Nicolas Sarkozy taking credit for the UMP's win of 67 departments, trouncing Francois Hollande's Socialists, who got 34 has anything to do with Australian regional interests. History has shown the destabilising effect that events in France can have on the French Pacific territories, our near neighbours, particularly New Caledonia just off the Queensland coast
