Download or read book The Encyclopedia of Caribbean Religions written by Patrick Taylor and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2013-04-30 with total page 1185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Caribbean Religions is the definitive reference for Caribbean religious phenomena from a Caribbean perspective. Generously illustrated, this landmark project combines the breadth of a comparative approach to religion with the depth of understanding of Caribbean spirituality as an ever-changing and varied historical phenomenon. Organized alphabetically, entries examine how Caribbean religious experiences have been shaped by and have responded to the processes of colonialism and the challenges of the postcolonial world. Systematically organized by theme and area, the encyclopedia considers religious traditions such as Vodou, Rastafari, Sunni Islam, Sanatan Dharma, Judaism, and the Roman Catholic and Seventh-day Adventist churches. Detailed subentries present topics such as religious rituals, beliefs, practices, specific historical developments, geographical differences, and gender roles within major traditions. Also included are entries that address the religious dimensions of geographical territories that make up the Caribbean. Representing the culmination of more than a decade of work by the associates of the Caribbean Religions Project, The Encyclopedia of Caribbean Religions will foster a greater understanding of the role of religion in Caribbean life and society, in the Caribbean diaspora, and in wider national and transnational spaces.

Download or read book Migration Social Identities and Regionalism within the Caribbean Community written by Oral I. Robinson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-08 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a theoretical and substantive analysis of intra-Caribbean migration, perception of regionalism, and the construction of identities among Caribbean nationals. Through a multi-methods study in the 15 member countries of the Caribbean community, Oral Robinson explores how intra-Caribbean migrants experience living within different member countries, and how these experiences and perceptions influence ideas about citizenship, belonging, and identity. Responding directly to the lack of scholarship on how Caribbean nationals feel about integration and/or free movement within their own countries and other Caribbean countries, this volume attempts to understand Caribbean societies historically, theoretically, and methodologically; proposes bases of social identities in the Caribbean; and examines how intra-Caribbean migrants negotiate their identities and narrate their lived experiences as intra-Caribbean migrants. The book offers policy solutions based upon its findings, reconciling practice, theory, and migration policies in the Caribbean.

Download or read book LEGIT ACTS ILLEG ENC written by Mindie Lazarus-Black and published by Smithsonian Books (DC). This book was released on 1994-06-17 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Legitimate Acts and Illegal Encounters examines three hundred years of social life on the Caribbean islands of Antigua and Barbuda to demonstrate the importance of law and the state in the creation of West Indian societies. Moving from the periods of slavery and emancipation under British colonial rule to recent independence, Mindie Lazarus-Black argues that the continuing struggle between lawmakers and the nonruling class has shaped the distinctive character of creole kinship, class, and gender." "Lazarus-Black analyzes historical and social transformation on the islands, using a theoretical framework drawn from Foucault's distinction between "systems of legalities" (the signs, symbols, and rituals of law) and "systems of illegalities" (common breaches of codes or explicit tolerance of illicit behaviors). She documents the differences between local behavior and Antiguan law under slavery; the impact of family, labor, and poor laws on kinship relations in the post-emancipation era; and, in contemporary times, how men and women use the law in ways lawmakers never imagined - as when women take men to court as a form of ritual shaming. Her research reveals that the same laws used by ruling classes as tools for punitive definitions have served lower classes as instruments of both defense and resistance. Legal strictures, she shows, have been used to keep the master class within its own written limits, to check elites' assumptions about the social world, and to push for a "justice" born of the experiences of the powerless." "As this book demonstrates, the investigation of law and judicial processes is as central to the history and the anthropology of the powerless as it is to that of the elites. The author's interdisciplinary analysis of the dynamics of and between domination and resistance in creole society will inform students of anthropology, history, law and society, Caribbean studies, and women's studies."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Black Ranching Frontiers written by Andrew Sluyter and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVIn this groundbreaking book Andrew Sluyter demonstrates for the first time that Africans played significant creative roles in establishing open-range cattle ranching in the Americas. In so doing, he provides a new way of looking at and studying the history of land, labor, property, and commerce in the Atlantic world./div DIVSluyter shows that Africans’ ideas and creativity helped to establish a production system so fundamental to the environmental and social relations of the American colonies that the consequences persist to the present. He examines various methods of cattle production, compares these methods to those used in Europe and the Americas, and traces the networks of actors that linked that Atlantic world. The use of archival documents, material culture items, and ecological relationships between landscape elements make this book a methodologically and substantively original contribution to Atlantic, African-American, and agricultural history./div
