The Caribbean Postcolonial

Meer over het boek

The book delves into the complex history of cultural hybridity in the Caribbean, examining its implications for social equality and its representation in postcolonial studies. It questions why certain hybrid identities are celebrated while others are marginalized, and investigates the allure of hybridity for both nationalist and post-nationalist movements. By analyzing the interplay between Afro-Caribbean and Indo-Caribbean cultures shaped by slavery and indentureship, the work contributes to critical discussions on cultural resistance, feminism, and globalization's impact on nationalism.
