My doctoral research explores how actors employ contested meanings of citizenship and decolonisation in the debate over voting rights in New Caledonia. Drawing on archival research and interviews with political leaders and activists, I explore how the right to vote is shaped competing discourses of belonging, rights and identity stemming from New Caledonia's history as a settler colony of France. |
