Impacts (environmental, economic and social and political and relational) following the creation of tourism destinations. Issues that surround the sustainable development of tourism destinations. French Pacific (Tahiti and its Islands, New Caledonia, Wallis and Futuna) tourism issues. My research interests lie in analysing the geographic context within which tourism destinations are developed. Certain destinations I have found fascinating because of their particular contexts: why would an American entertainment company believe that its product could succeed in a foreign environment and why would it be helped by that country's government? The project seemed to be an abysmal failure 20 months after its opening but its owners could not afford to shut it down. What was really happening? That question led to some of the articles I have published and to others that are still gestating. Another resort, which has been financially successful, has had to deal with a public relations hassle and with protracted litigation from surrounding townships. Foxwoods Casino Resort's contextual relations are very different from those of Disneyland Paris but have been just as fascinating to study. In the case of Foxwoods (located in Connecticut), two cultural groups have diverging perspectives that have proven more difficult to reconcile than in the case of Disneyland Paris.
