Book Synopsis Identity, Ethnicity and Culture in the Caribbean by : Ralph R. Premdas
Book excerpt: " This volume pulls together an interesting collection of essays on culture, ethnicity and identity. Some contributors have focused on calypso, popular music, and carnival as sites of inter- ethnic rivalry in the context of forging a national identity in a global setting. Others have examined the role of competitive elections, jobs in the public service,schools, mixed marriages and dancing as arenas of culture conflict and power quest" -- Book cover.
