  • Bermuda (Country Update)
    Country update BERMUDA Summary The (re)insurance sector remains the dominant sector on the island of Bermuda, followed by the tourism sector. A slow recovery in the US and Europe therefore weighs on economic growth in Bermuda. Economic growth is expected to be around 1-1.5% this year, which is similar to growth in 2011. Considering the high level of income, a low growth should not pose any problems, but it could hamper swift fiscal consolidation. After public debt doubled between 2008 and 2010, to 20% of GDP, people worried that the government would be unable to get the fiscal situation under control again. However, the direction of the 2011 and 2012 budgets suggests that the risk of public debt spiralling out of control has reduced substantially. Another issue that concerns the inhabitants of Bermuda is rising unemployment, which now unofficially stands at 12%. These issues are expected to play a role in the general elections, which will be held in 2013 at the latest. In the meantime, the Bermuda Monetary Authority has adopted regulation to qualify for Solvency-II equivalency, the new EU standards for insurers. Currently, only Switzerland and Bermuda are seen as candidates eligible for equivalency and a final decision is expected later this year.

  • The Social and Historical Construction of Black Bermudian Identities: Implications for Education
    The Social and Historical Construction of Black Bermudian Identities: Implications for Education By Donna May Outerbridge A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the doctoral degree Graduate Department of Humanities, Social Science and Social Justice Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Donna May Outerbridge (September 2013) Donna May Outerbridge The Social and Historical Construction of Black Bermudian Identities: Implications for Education Doctor of Philosophy Department of Humanities, Social Science and Social Justice Education University of Toronto (2013) Abstract This dissertation looks at the historical and social construction of Black Bermudian identities, and how identities have been shaped in contemporary Bermuda by its education system. I grapple with, and attempt to make sense of the complexities, messiness, ambiguity, disappointments, and painful reality of Black Bermudians’ identity and cultural dynamics. It is necessary to have a total understanding of identity and its connections not only to enslavement and colonization but also the rest of the Caribbean and Africa. The present understanding creates an amputated sense of self. Through the use of three concepts: Afrocentricity, Anti-colonialism and creolization, this dissertation seeks to reunify Bermuda with the rest of the Caribbean and Africa by moving Bermuda from the peripheral of international discourses to the larger and broader discussions on African-diasporic identity. It is through the synthesis of these theories that Black Bermudian identities and how Black Bermudians self-identify are understood through their various forms of resistance to dominant narratives. The dissertation also proposes a re- examination of the role of schooling and education—through teaching curriculum, texts and pedagogical practices—in producing a particular narrative of Black identity and the implications of such knowledge in constructing Blackness in Bermuda.

It is based on original and independent research undertaken while a doctoral candidate in the Department of Archaeology at the University of Cambridge. This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except where specifically indicated in the text. Statement of Length This dissertation does not exceed the limit of 80,000 words (or 350 pages) plus a 20,000 word extension, stipulated and approved by the Archaeology and Anthropology Degree Committee and the Board of Graduate Studies at the University of Cambridge. ii Acknowledgments Although positioned in this preface, it is preferable for the acknowledgments that follow to be read after the dissertation. I say this as a spoiler warning for forthcoming discussions of my positioning and because it is the research itself that, I hope, reflects all that has been so generously given to me by those acknowledged below. These gifts include significant time and effort on the part of many people as well as their trust, flexibility and patience. For me, this project was not simply about ‘getting a PhD’ but about making the most of my graduate and research experiences, optimising the opportunity to listen, think and explore.
