  abstract = {{T}his paper is a shortened and updated version of a previous report on {F}rench {P}olynesia's econonomy ({B}lanchet 1985), and is a descriptive overview rather than a comprehensive survey. {T}he main objective of the paper has been to bring together data, complemented by extensive explanatory information, to provide material for the assessment of the evolution of {F}rench {P}olynesia's economy up to 1990. {I}n order to complement the earlier report, the paper devotes substantial attention to developments during the 1980s. {T}he most important factors shaping the economy of the territory have been political in nature. {T}he drastic transformation and problematic adjustment to the outside world of what was formely a relatively insignificant, small, colonial-style economy, was brought about by {F}rench metropolitan policies on defence (essentially, the decision to set up a nuclear testing site in the territory). {T}his report is chronological in its presentation. {I}t examines the territory's key economic characteristics in each decade from the early 1960s onwards},
