  • NAMES on DOMINICA Dominica Was Occupied Successively by Speakers
    NAMES ON DOMINICA BY DOUGLAS TAYLOR *) Dominica was occupied successively by speakers of Arawakan, Cariban, French, and English dialects, all of which have left their mark in place-names, as well as in the names of local flora and fauna. African influence appears to have been minimal in this respect. The Arawakan language of the island's early in- habitants survived that of the Carib invaders (from which, how- ever, many words were borrowed), but the last native speaker died about 1920. Two languages are spoken today: English and a dialect of French Creole. The former, being the language of prestige, is usually employed by the more socio-economically privileged minority, the latter by the peasant majority, few of whom know much English. However, members of the first class often resort to Creole in their more intimate relations; while many among even the poorest peasants may be heard addressing young children in what they believe to be English, and chiding them for speaking "Patois". One curious result of this situation is that not only local fruits, trees, fishes, birds, e/c., but also many places — probably most of those that have ever been recorded in writing — have two (or more) names, the one em- ployed in Creole and the other in English speech. So, for example, Grande Anse or Portsmouth is the island's second largest town, Charlotteville or New Town is a suburb of the capital Roseau (which has no other name), Cachacrou or Scots Head is a peninsula at the island's southwestern extremity, Cachibona of Clyde is one of its rivers.

  • Dominica Flash Flooding and Landslides, April 17- 25, 2013
    SITUATION REPORT #1 - DOMINICA FLASH FLOODING AND LANDSLIDES, APRIL 17- 25, 2013 Message CDEMA has initiated a Level 2 Response to facilitate requests from Dominica following flash flooding and landslides as a result of heavy rains over the period April 17 – 20, 2013. Major road subsidence at Pond Casse on April 19, caused the death of two persons. Event Reports from the Office of Disaster Management (ODM) state that Dominica experienced an extended period of moisture and instability associated with a trough system which generated heavy rains and isolated thunderstorms mainly across the central portion of the island commencing on the 17th April and lasting until the 20th April 2013. Rainfall records from the Dominica Meteorological Services obtained Melville Hall and Canefield Airports indicate an accumulated total rainfall for the period a 437.7mm/17ins and 120.8mm/4.5ins respectively. The after effects of the trough system have left lingering moisture in the area that continues to cause isolated showers. Situation: According to ODM, the continuous rainfall has caused landslides and flash flooding with extensive tree and rock falls in many areas. Up to April 25, the continuing isolated showers are resulting in cresting of rivers and further saturation of soils. Damage was mainly sustained to roads, tourism infrastructure and utilities. ODM also received reports of minor damage to fishing communities and residents in rural areas due to flooding. Casualties Two persons are dead and one injured after the vehicle they were travelling in fell into the 40 feet crater created by a road subsidence at Pond Casse on April 19.

  • Cross-Border Film Production: the Neoliberal Recolonization of an Exotic Island by Hollywood Pirates
    CROSS-BORDER FILM PRODUCTION: THE NEOLIBERAL RECOLONIZATION OF AN EXOTIC ISLAND BY HOLLYWOOD PIRATES Anthony Frampton A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2014 Committee: Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Advisor Federico A. Chalupa Graduate Faculty Representative Ewart Skinner Radhika Gajjala © 2014 Anthony Frampton All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Advisor This qualitative study explores the relationship between Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and Hollywood’s cross-border film productions by examining the strategies that these islands use to facilitate the filming of big-budget foreign films within their borders. The dissertation also analyzes the inherent implications of transnational film production practices from the perspective of the host location and reviews extant theories of international film production to explore whether they adequately explain the peculiar dynamics and experiences of filmmaking in SIDS countries by heavily financed, non-resident film producers. The study blends relevant strands of political economy of media and critical cultural studies to construct a customized theoretical backbone. From this critical standpoint, it engages theories of globalization, development, cultural industries, post- colonialism, and policymaking to analyze the interaction between SIDS nations and international satellite film productions. Adopting a grounded theory methodological framework, it uses interviewees, focus groups, participant observation and document analysis to collect data from the island of Dominica in the Caribbean, which hosted two films in Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. The study found that these foreign film producers received unprecedented levels of concessions and amassed huge savings from their ability to manipulate governmental authorities and local elites and exploit the weak institutional capacity of the state and its poor systems of accountability.
