Polynesian lagoons are part of economic, environmental and social networks that are highly complex, particularly given the interactions between different actors who do not necessarily share the same interests. The traditional practice of rāhui is a system of periodic non-exploitation used in Polynesian society which is today undergoing a certain revival. It has some similarities to what Nobel prize winning economist Elinor Ostrom has called the Common Pool. One of the aims of this book is to examine the relationship between this tradition and new forms of management of the lagoon through the concept of the commons. The book is made up of six chapters. The first two are focused on the rāhui in ancient Tahiti, and its return in modern times. The next three focus on case studies and the learnings that can be drawn from them from the point of view of commons management. The final chapter looks at the technical operationality of the notion of the Common Pool in French Polynesia and raises the question of environmental financing.
