Sommario/riassunto |
|
Provides a measure of, as well as a model for, scholarship on globalization in the Caribbean. Highlighting social and cultural aspects of the region, these essays examine cultural phenomena in their creolized forms - from sports and religion to music and drink, from racial inequality and feminist activism to indebtedness and economic uncertainty. |
