The Sea Will Rise, Barbuda Will Survive: Environment and Time Consciousness by Sophia Perdikaris and Katie Rose Hejtmanek • Abstract In this article, we examine the link between environmental consciousnesses and time consciousness. We argue that the way people think about time shapes their experience of climate change threats. We contrast western hegemonic concepts of time—the Gregorian Calendar, the Dooms Day Clock, linear time—with the way Barbudans of Antigua and Barbuda, an island nation in the Caribbean experience time—cyclical, through boom and bust cycles. We found that this boom and bust framework was indeed supported by climate change and weather experiences on the island—hurricanes, droughts, changes in the lagoons—as well as economic experiences—cargo boat delays bringing supplies, paycheck delays. By understanding local explanatory models of time, especially those that contrast to western climate science frameworks of time, better solution-driven work can be achieved in the face of climate change realities.

  • Antigua and Barbuda an Annotated Critical Bibliography
    Antigua and Barbuda an annotated critical bibliography by Riva Berleant-Schiller and Susan Lowes, with Milton Benjamin Volume 182 of the World Bibliographical Series 1995 Clio Press ABC Clio, Ltd. (Oxford, England; Santa Barbara, California; Denver, Colorado) Abstract: Antigua and Barbuda, two islands of Leeward Island group in the eastern Caribbean, together make up a single independent state. The union is an uneasy one, for their relationship has always been ambiguous and their differences in history and economy greater than their similarities. Barbuda was forced unwillingly into the union and it is fair to say that Barbudan fears of subordination and exploitation under an Antiguan central government have been realized. Barbuda is a flat, dry limestone island. Its economy was never dominated by plantation agriculture. Instead, its inhabitants raised food and livestock for their own use and for provisioning the Antigua plantations of the island's lessees, the Codrington family. After the end of slavery, Barbudans resisted attempts to introduce commercial agriculture and stock-rearing on the island. They maintained a subsistence and small cash economy based on shifting cultivation, fishing, livestock, and charcoal-making, and carried it out under a commons system that gave equal rights to land to all Barbudans. Antigua, by contrast, was dominated by a sugar plantation economy that persisted after slave emancipation into the twentieth century. Its economy and goals are now shaped by the kind of high-impact tourism development that includes gambling casinos and luxury hotels. The Antiguan government values Barbuda primarily for its sparsely populated lands and comparatively empty beaches. This bibliography is the only comprehensive reference book available for locating information about Antigua and Barbuda.

    Antigua and Barbuda Antigua and Barbuda NBSAP Review Process Monograph Prepared by: Lucia Mings Endorsed by: Diann Black-Layne, CBD National Focal Point, Antigua and Barbuda 1 Introduction: Country Situation Analysis 1.1 Background 1.1.1 Physical Features Antigua and Barbuda is an archipelagic state located in the Caribbean Sea approximately 250 miles southeast of Puerto Rico. It is the most central of the leeward island chain that starts with the Virgin Islands in the West and ends with Dominica in the South (Map1). There are several tiny uninhabited islands surrounding Antigua, Redonda (0.6 sq. miles or 1.6 sq. km) being the largest. The precise coordinates of Antigua is 17o10’ latitude, 61o55’ longitude, Barbuda is 28 miles north of Antigua at latitude 17o35’ and longitude 61o48’. Antigua is roughly round and has an area of 108 sq. miles (280 sq. km) while Barbuda is 62 sq. miles (160 sq. km). Antigua and Barbuda has an estimated exclusive economic zone of 110,071 sq. km. The islands of Antigua and Barbuda are emergent parts of a 3400 sq. km submarine platform. The depth of water between the two islands averages 27.33 m. The coastline of Antigua is indented with numerous islets, creeks, inlets, associated sand bars and wetlands. A large portion of the east, north and south coasts are protected by fringing reefs. The west coast is dominated by a sandy substrate interspersed with fringing reefs in relatively shallow waters. Antigua’s topography can be described as undulating. The highest point in Antigua is Mt Obama (1,319 ft.
