The mainland areas of South America, which together with the islands form the Circum-Carib­ bean, have been omitted and certain islands, which are neither archaeo- logically nor culturally part of the West Indies, have been included on a purely geographic basis, so that the bibliography encompasses the Greater Antilles, the Lesser Antilles, Trinidad and Tobago, and various islands off the coast of South America such as those of the Netherlands Antilles. The sources used for compilation were immediately the bibliographies of the Handbook of South American Indians, v.

The multi-ethnic, multi-lingual, im- mensely varied islanders of the Caribbean share a broad colonial ex- perience which has placed them, ultimately, in the same general de- vice. Research scholars of the region have for long struggled with the paradox stemming from this diversity — that 'precisely what makes the region attractive for comparative study also makes it very difficult to comprehend' (MlNTZ 1978:371).* The publica- tion in 1968 of COMITAS' one-volume Gm'££etf»<z was, therefore, a major event in Caribbean scholarship.

  • RISM and CARIBBEAN SOCIAL SCIENCE Lambros Comitas Over
    RISM AND CARIBBEAN SOCIAL SCIENCE Lambros Comitas Over the past century, education in the West Indies has earned the praise or incurred the wrath of royal commissions, colonial officials, aspiring politicians, ministers of government, parents, and other interest groups. Even now, it continues to attract investigation and stimulate comment. If we follow the ideas of that seminal social theorist S. F. Nadel, education is a basic or core institution of society found wherever human life is found. Like other core institutions, it fulfills its professed purpose-- to educate, within itself; but, in addition, it vitally affects and influences the operation of other institutions. I would argue that it is this rare blend of clearly-focused task and cross-institutional influence that gives education its indisputable power and pivotal importance in society, particularly in developing or rapidly-changing societies. West Indian educationists, among others, systematically probe this essential institution of modern life, governments issue grandiose plans, and even writers, a surprisingly large number, use education as context or point of departure for creative efforts. Take, for example, George Lamming's very personal novel In the Castle of my Skin in which vivid images of Barbadian schooling and the impact of that schooling abound. "Education was not a continuous process. It was a kind of steeplechase in which the contestants had to take different hurdles. Some went to the left and others to the right, and when they parted they never really met again" (1953:218). Eric Williams in his Education in the British West Indies provides an early example of systematic analysis.

  • H. Rubenstein Coping with Cannabis in a Caribbean Country
    H. Rubenstein Coping with cannabis in a Caribbean country : from problem formulation to going public Analyzes the dialectic between problem discovery and formulation, ethical considerations, and the public dissemination of research results. Author describes his personal experience of fieldwork, the moral-ethical dilemmas it involved, and the circulation of research findings on cannabis production and consumption in St. Vincent. He became frustrated that his academic publications were only accessible to a tiny portion of St. Vincent's population and therefore decided to publish about cannabis in the local media.
