  • Religion and the Alter-Nationalist Politics of Diaspora in an Era of Postcolonial Multiculturalism
    RELIGION AND THE ALTER-NATIONALIST POLITICS OF DIASPORA IN AN ERA OF POSTCOLONIAL MULTICULTURALISM (chapter six) “There can be no Mother India … no Mother Africa … no Mother England … no Mother China … and no Mother Syria or Mother Lebanon. A nation, like an individual, can have only one Mother. The only Mother we recognize is Mother Trinidad and Tobago, and Mother cannot discriminate between her children. All must be equal in her eyes. And no possible interference can be tolerated by any country outside in our family relations and domestic quarrels, no matter what it has contributed and when to the population that is today the people of Trinidad and Tobago.” - Dr. Eric Williams (1962), in his Conclusion to The History of the People of Trinidad and Tobago, published in conjunction with National Independence in 1962 “Many in the society, fearful of taking the logical step of seeking to create a culture out of the best of our ancestral cultures, have advocated rather that we forget that ancestral root and create something entirely new. But that is impossible since we all came here firmly rooted in the cultures from which we derive. And to simply say that there must be no Mother India or no Mother Africa is to show a sad lack of understanding of what cultural evolution is all about.” - Dr. Brinsley Samaroo (Express Newspaper, 18 October 1987), in the wake of victory of the National Alliance for Reconstruction in December 1986, after thirty years of governance by the People’s National Movement of Eric Williams Having documented and analyzed the maritime colonial transfer and “glocal” transculturation of subaltern African and Hindu spiritisms in the southern Caribbean (see Robertson 1995 on “glocalization”), this chapter now turns to the question of why each tradition has undergone an inverse political trajectory in the postcolonial era.

    STRONG LEADERSHIP FOR A STRONG T&T THE UNITED NATIONAL CONGRESS Re s t o r i n g Tru s t he PNM’s unrelenting seven-year campaign and its savagely partisan Tuse of the apparatus of the State to humiliate and criminalise the leadership and prominent supporters of the UNC have failed to produce a single convic- tion on any charge of misconduct in public office. The UNC nonetheless recognises the compelling obligation to move immedi- ately with speed and purpose to do all that is possible to restore the public trust.

  • Ethnicity and Elections in the Caribbean: a Radical Realignment of Power in Trinidad and the Threat of Communal Strife
    ETHNICITY AND ELECTIONS IN THE CARIBBEAN: A RADICAL REALIGNMENT OF POWER IN TRINIDAD AND THE THREAT OF COMMUNAL STRIFE Ralph R. Premdas Working Paper #224 - April 1996 Ralph R. Premdas, a Visiting Scholar at the Kellogg Institute (spring 1996), teaches regularly at the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago, in the Caribbean. Over the past two decades Professor Premdas has conducted extensive field work in Guyana and Fiji. Among his published works are Guyana: Ethnic Conflict and Development and Fiji: Ethnicity and Development, both published by the United Nations Research Institute for Social Development and by the University of Warwick’s Research Series on Ethnic Relations. Other recent works by the author include Secessionist Movements in Comparative Perspective (Pinter, 1991), The Enigma of Ethnicity: Ethnic and Racial Relations in the Caribbean and the World (University of the West Indies, 1992), and Ethnic Identity in the Caribbean: Decentering a Myth (University of Toronto, 1995). The author is grateful to all the friends and colleagues who generously contributed their assistance in putting this paper together, and he would like, in particular, to thank Mr. Henry Ramjass for his help. ABSTRACT The 1995 elections in the multiethnic Caribbean state, Trinidad and Tobago, were not an ordinary affair. They not only saw a change of regime but with it a change in the ethnic identity of the new political rulers. Control of the government by one ethnic party or the other poses a threat to the welfare of excluded and defeated parties. For many years one ethnic community controlled the government and entrenched its supporters at all levels of government as well as allocating most resources for the benefit of its own community.

    BRIDGET BRERETON CONTESTING THE PAST: NARRATIVES OF TRINIDAD & TOBAGO HISTORY INTRODUCTION Historians and social scientists agree that nationalisms and national identities, ethnicities and ethnic identities, are all constructed or “invented” at specific historical conjunctures, and that the creation of narratives about the past is nearly always an important aspect of this process. The recent (June 2006) dec- laration by the Florida state legislature – that American history as taught in the state’s schools “shall be viewed as factual, not as constructed ... and shall be defined as the creation of a new nation based largely on the universal principles stated in the Declaration of Independence” – thus flies in the face of decades of academic consensus about how “history” is written. Every past, every claim to truth about the past, is open to interpretation. As Barry Schwartz (quoted in Johnson 2003:7) has put it, “recollecting the past is an active constructive process, not a simple matter of retrieving information. To remember is to place a part of the past in the service of conceptions and needs of the present.” All postcolonial states, in particular, have undergone a process of national self- creation, a process of identity formation involving “a recasting of history to produce a usable past” as Howard Johnson (2003:) has said of Jamaica. Nationalisms are invented, and their claims to historical continuity are always expressions of ideological and political concerns, and this is equally true of the construction of ethnicities and ethnic narratives. “Nations are imaginary constructs that depend for their existence on an apparatus of cultural fictions,” writes Timothy Brennan (990:49).
