What Will Happen?. 330 $aThe "Tahiti" that most people imagine -- white-sand beaches, turquoise lagoons, and beautiful women -- is a product of 18th century European romanticism and persists today to serve as the bedrock of Tahiti's tourism industry. This postcard image, however, masks a different, less known reality. French Polynesia remains a colony of France in the 21st century and was the site of France's nuclear testing program for nearly thirty years. The dreams and desires, which the tourism industry promotes, distract from the medical nightmares and environmental destruction caused by nuclear testing. Tahitians see the burying of a bomb in their land as deeply offensive. For them, the land abounds with ancestral fertility and genealogical identity, providing them with a constant source of both physical and spiritual nourishment. The imagined and lived perspectives of Tahiti seem incompatible, yet are intricately intertwined in the political economy of French Polynesia. This book engages with questions about the ways in which power entangles itself in place-related ways. How does colonialism perpetuate and exploit these images? How can nuclear weapons testing exist in a place that is promoted as a pristine paradise? How and why is 'Tahiti' crafted by a tourism industry whose goal is to create desire? How is this imagined product embraced, ignored, or sabotaged by Tahitians? The author uses interpretive frameworks of both Tahitian and European scholars, drawing upon ethnographic details that include ancient chants, picture postcards, antinuclear protests, popular song lyrics, and the legacy of Paul Gauguin's art, to provide fresh perspectives on colonialism, tourism, imagery, and the anthropology of place. 410 0$aCulture, place, and nature. 606 $aEthnology$zFrench Polynesia$zTahiti (Island) 606 $aHuman geography$zFrench Polynesia$zTahiti (Island) 606 $aCulture and tourism$zFrench Polynesia$zTahiti (Island) 606 $aGeographical perception$zFrench Polynesia$zTahiti (Island) 606 $aPostcolonialism$zFrench Polynesia$zTahiti (Island) 607 $aTahiti (French Polynesia : Island)$xSocial life and customs 607 $aTahiti (French Polynesia : Island)$xForeign relations$zFrance 607 $aFrance$xForeign relations$zFrench Polynesia$zTahiti (Island) 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aHuman geography 615 0$aCulture and tourism 615 0$aGeographical perception 615 0$aPostcolonialism 676 $a996.2/11 686 $a8,2$2ssgn 700 $aKahn$b Miriam$0866677 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817204303321 996 $aTahiti beyond the postcard$94077694 997 $aUNINA
