description In the French West Indies, the use of spaces and territories raises numerous and complex questions and problems. Both depend on the particular characteristics of the environment and the context of islands, and on parameters specific to the local context, including identity factors. The historical and socio-cultural constraints are indeed often critical. This results in situations that proceed, or conversely generate, attitudes and behaviours that still lie in the field of non-law, whether will full or suffered.The needs of any kind (occupation, use, exploitation, valuation, etc.) for land areas for the benefit of different and often conflicting private interests, stumble also many obstacles, especially when they are mobilized for tourism. They are due as much to the limited size of the territories, as to the increasing scar-city of available land. The negative impacts are exacerbated by the demands of environmental conservation that face the requirements of planning policies and tourism, which tend to overlap and oppose in tourist urbanization of coastal areas, which are spaces as coveted as fragile .
