| Riassunto: | This article proposes to examine the contemporary discourse of pro-independence leaders in relation to the challenges faced by customary representatives of the kanak people at the end of the Noumea Accord, namely the hiatus between their desire to achieve full sovereignty, and alternatives arising after the three successive refusals at the end of the referendum period. We identify an overlap between two distinct strategies: on the one hand, regaining sovereignty through independence; on the other, legal claims based on the indigenous status benefiting from specific arrangements and leading to a more local form of sovereignty. Beyond the apparent opposition, both strategies actually complement each other. This article is based on a diversified corpus including field observations made between 2017 and 2024 in New Caledonia, and on nine semi-structured interviews conducted with three flnks actors, two pro-independence trade unionists, and four actors from civil and customary society. |
