ANTHROPOLOGY Chapter Showcase | 2021
ANTHROPOLOGY Chapter Showcase | 2021 LEXINGTON BOOKS An Imprint of Rowman & Littlefield LEXINGTON BOOKS CHAPTER SHOWCASE FROM THE EDITOR Anthropology at its best can act as a beacon, bringing unity in these trying times marked by a global pandemic, civil unrest, and political polarization. Lexington’s dynamic and diverse community of authors explore not only how people have lived and adapted to their environments but how we continue to do so, asserting the crucial role of human culture, language, and adaptation in our survival from prehistory to the modern day. Lexington Books is proud to publish academic books that feature trailblazing research and absorbing analysis, engage with diverse methodological and theoretical frameworks, and highlight under-represented voices. The selected chapters included in this showcase exemplify this tradition and are timely reminders of anthropology’s notable contributions to conversations within academia and the public arena. These chapters examine how the process of compensating fieldwork participants can be complicated by race and history; analyze the effects of violence on mental health and activism in Black and Latinx LGBT communities; explore the relationship between food, debt, and survival in the Dominican Republic; investigate leftist challenges to LGBT+ mainstreaming in Ukraine; and determine what can be inferred from human skeletal data about the cultural and behavioral changes that occurred from the collapse of the Wari civilization in the Andean Middle Horizon period (AD 500–1000) to the formation of the Huaro and Pinagua societies. I invite you to publish your next scholarly book with Lexington Books. We publish monographs, edited collections, revised dissertations, and ethnographies by emerging and established scholars, including interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary works.

Even prior to the introduction of European honeybees, Haitians had an ancestral link to beekeeping through the practice of honey hunting in Africa over the last several thousand years. Since the colonial period, Haitians have developed their own unique beekeeping culture, complete with indigenous designs for hives, smokers, and protective equipment. During the last several decades, numerous international groups have emphasized modernizing and increasing the efficiency of beekeeping to provide an additional source of income for rural communities. Many of these aid and outreach programs have achieved noteworthy results with meaningful impacts for Haitians, especially during the twenty-first century. A stronger and more efficient beekeeping industry in Haiti has the potential to provide a higher quality of life for Haitians and certainly deserves further investment.

Valorization of Pikliz: a Spicy Meal Garnishment in Haitian Cuisine
Louis-Jean et al. Journal of Ethnic Foods (2021) 8:1 Journal of Ethnic Foods https://doi.org/10.1186/s42779-021-00077-5 REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access Valorization of pikliz: a spicy meal garnishment in Haitian cuisine James Louis-Jean1* , Debbie Sanon2, Kevin Louis-Jean3, Nicole Sanon2, Ruthonce Stvil Louis-Jean4 and Michelle Luvy Thomas5 Abstract The biochemical process of fermentation (zymology) is widely practical for foods and beverages. This metabolic process involves microorganisms (bacteria) and their enzymes in the preparation and preservation of foods. Many studies have shown that fermented foods and beverages have various documented health benefits to humans, such as being high in vitamin b, and, among other benefits, having atherogenic and anticarcinogenic properties. This communication discusses the significance of fermentation in Haitian cuisine by focusing on pikliz—a spicy fermented meal garnishment that is widely popular among Haitian dishes. This analysis provides relevant information on Haitian cuisine while examining the underlying mechanisms, compositions, properties, nutritional values, and potential health benefits of pikliz. This spicy meal garnishment represents the regional, ethnic, and national identity of Haitians living in Haiti and abroad. Keywords: Cabbage, Carrot, Fermentation, Haitian cuisine, Pikliz Introduction forced them to work as slaves under harsh conditions in Historical overview of Haitian cuisine various plantations (i.e., coffee, sugar, cocoa, tobacco Prior to the Europeans’ arrival to the Caribbean island of indigo, and cotton among others).
