Download or read book Belize and Its People written by Godfrey Mwakikagile and published by Continental Press. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author looks at Belize and its people to provide a general picture of the country and its ethnic diversity and how different ethnic groups interact as members of a multicultural society. Some of the main subjects covered include group identity - Creole, Mestizo, Garifuna and so on - and the role it plays in determining relations between members of different ethno-cultural groups in a country which stands out probably as the most ethnically diverse in Central America. The work is also a general introduction to Belize from a historical and geographical standpoint and has previously been published under another title, "Belize and Its Identity: A Multicultural Perspective." Although it's written for the general public, some students and scholars may find it to be useful in different areas of study. It's well-documented with scholarly references and citations from many sources which go beyond the interest of the general reader and can even be used as a college text on Belize, providing useful insights into the complexities of a multicultural society.

Download or read book Belize and Its Identity written by Godfrey Mwakikagile and published by New Africa Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is about Belize from a historical and contemporary perspective. Once known as British Honduras, Belize is the only English-speaking country in Central America. And it's only one of two such countries in Latin America. The other one is Guyana in South America which was also once ruled by Britain. The author looks at the different racial and ethno-cultural groups which collectively constitute Belize, a country founded by British settlers and African slaves more than 300 years ago. The work is a general introduction to Belize. It's also about life in Belize and how the different groups interact with each other in this multicultural society. He examines Belize's multicultural character and identity and how members of different groups interact at different levels of national life - as individuals, as an integral part of an ethnic or cultural group, and as an integral part of the nation. How important is group identity? Is Belize a melting pot? Has it ever tried to be one if it's not one already? Are ethnic relations good or bad? How do immigrants fit in? Are there "true" Belizeans? Who is a native Belizean and who is not? How have competing claims to native status affected ethnic and racial relations? How many ethnic and racial groups are in Belize? Are there ethnic enclaves in Belize? Is Belize also an Afro-Caribbean nation although it's in Central America? Is it more black than Spanish? What is the dominant culture in Belize and why? Those are some of the subjects addressed in the book. Members of the general public including those going to Belize may find this work to be useful. It may also help some students learn a few things about the country.
Download or read book Current Developments in Anthropological Genetics written by Michael Crawford and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the previous two volumes in this series were based upon methodol ogy, theory, and the relationship between ecology and population structure, this book can be viewed as an in-depth case study. The population genetics of a multitude of diverse groups geographically distributed throughout the world was examined in the first two volumes. In contrast, this volume focuses upon a single ethnic group, the Black Caribs (Garifuna) of Central America and St. Vincent Island, and explores the interrelationships among the ethnohistory, sociocultural characteristics, demography, morphology, and genetic structure of the group. This volume offers a broad and intensive treatment of the Black Caribs and their interactions with surrounding populations. My interest in the genetics of the Black Caribs was sparked by an accidental meeting in Amsterdam, Holland, in March 1975. A conversation with Nancie Gonzalez at the Applied Anthropology Meetings revealed the "truth-is-stranger than·fiction" history of the Black Carib peoples of the Caribbean. This was a popUlation with a small-sized founding group and a unique biological success story. Nancie Gonzalez was particularly interested in estimating the Carib Indian admixture in the contemporary Garifuna popUlation. Given my previous experi ence in estimating Spanish and African admixture in the Tlaxcaltecan population (whose gene pool consisted predominantly of Indian alleles), a group that appeared to be primarily African with some Indian admixture was of great interest. Aside from the ethnohistorical interest, I believe that such a population may add conSiderably to our understanding of the inheritance of complex morphological traits.
