Exile to Paradise: Savagery and Civilization in Paris and the South Pacific, 1790-1900
Alice Bullard
The conservative government of the young Third Republic portrayed the Communards as savage destroyers of civilization. The Communards were depicted as plagued by original sin. Their punishment was an odd one: some 4500 revolutionaries were exiled to the South Pacific colony of New Caledonia.
