  • Blackness and Black Subjectivity in Central American Imagination
    Liminal Citizenry: Black Experience in the Central American Intellectual Imagination Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jennifer Carolina Gómez Menjívar, MA Graduate Program in Spanish and Portuguese The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee Dr. Abril Trigo, Advisor Dr. Ana del Sarto Dr. Laura Podalsky Copyright By Jennifer Carolina Gómez Menjívar 2011 Abstract Central American national literatures and social imaginaries have largely denied, ignored or, at best, minimized the long-lasting legacy of Afro-descendants across the isthmus. This dissertation examines how and why the identities of the black diaspora² mulattoes, the West Indian population that was recruited to work on the United Fruit &RPSDQ\¶VEDQDQDSODQWDWLRQVDQGWKH$IUR-indigenous Garifuna²have been shaped historically, vis-à-vis the nation, by Central American literary discourses, from colonial times to the present day. The black diaspora is not a powerless or exploited populace, but a constituency whose local and transnational expressions of identity challenge the myths of harmony and ethnic homogeneity in Central America. Debates about ethnicity and citizenship take place in the political arena as well as literature, where canonical authors like Rubén Darío and Miguel Ángel Asturias as well as understudied writers like Paca Navas Miralda and David Ruiz Puga have intervened at different times in history. ,GHPRQVWUDWHWKDWTXHVWLRQVDERXWWKHEODFNGLDVSRUD¶V relevance to Central American national cultures emerge in periods of political and economic turmoil. Chapter 1 examines travel narratives by Thomas Gage and Jacob Haefkens in order to identify the opportunities for upward social mobility available to blacks in Central America during colonial times and argues that these opportunities allowed them to exercise control of their representation in Central American letters.

  • Local Economic Linkages to Community-Based Tourism in Rural Costa Rica
    sjtg_375 373..387 doi:10.1111/j.1467-9493.2009.00375.x Local economic linkages to community-based tourism in rural Costa Rica Bernardo Trejos1 and Lan-Hung Nora Chiang2 1Department of Tropical Agriculture and International Cooperation, National Pingtung University of Science and Technology, Pingtung, Taiwan 2Department of Geography, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan Correspondence: Lan-Hung Nora Chiang (email: [email protected]) This paper reports on the contribution of tourism to the wellbeing of rural residents through the development of economic linkages engaged by community-based tourism (CBT) in rural Costa Rica. In a qualitative case study of local economic linkages surrounding one such project in Chira Island, economic linkages were assessed at two levels: discourse and practice. The findings indicate that CBT does not involve the collective property of the community, but rather, the collective property of a group of community members organized in a formal association. As a result, a discourse on local economic linkages has been promoted by CBT support organizations in which hopes of wider benefits are placed on small linkages to services and products provided by local community members. However, a field survey suggested that the economic linkages generated by CBT in the community were sporadic and polyvalent and, furthermore, that the linkages with agriculture are negatively affected by scale and seasonality, resulting in leakages out of the community. These findings caution practitioners that CBT may only have small-scale positive impacts on the local economy. Keywords: Costa Rica, community-based tourism, economic linkages, nongovernmental organi- zations (NGOs), rural development, rural tourism Introduction: community-based tourism (CBT) as a development strategy The potential contribution of tourism to the wellbeing of rural communities in devel- oping countries such as Costa Rica involves the development of economic linkages (Telfer & Wall, 1996; Telfer, 2001; Mbaiwa, 2003).

  • Generational Transition of Subsistence Fishing Practices in the Pacific Community of Venado Island, Costa Rica
    Generational Transition of Subsistence Fishing Practices in the Pacific Community of Venado Island, Costa Rica Maria D. Venegas: McNair Scholar Dr. Robert McCarl: Mentor Anthropology The goal of this ethnographic study is to document the way that tourism has affected the subsistence fishing activities on the island of Venado, Costa Rica. A key question is how tourism has forced the residents of this fishing community to make choices between a traditional economy and the need to survive in an expanding global market of ecological tourism. The method of research is ethnographic. The goal is to portray cultural issues through the life of the islanders. I hope that this research will create a better understanding of the cultural impact of global change on the people of Venado Island, as well as a wider appreciation of their rights and perspectives in this rapidly changing region of the Americas. Ethnographic analysis is inductive and builds upon the perspective of the people studied. The primary strategy used in this study is participant-observation. The participant-observer maintains two primary data gathering tasks: developing interpersonal familiarity within the community through participation of typical, daily interaction, combined with note-taking, photographs and tape recording of natural developing events and interviewing to collect life histories or narratives (Spradley, 1979). The work of Laura Gonzales, Comunidades pesquero artesanales en Costa Rica, help me to understand the social dimension in the development of different small scale fishing communities in the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica, as well as the social and economic dynamic and the techniques in the small-scale fishing in Costa Rica.
