This timely re-issue (with a new introduction) of Caribbean Cultural Identity: The Case of Jamaica is a re-affirmation of the validity of that persistent quest by the Jamaican and Caribbean people for place and purpose in a globalised world of continuous change. In post-colonial societies like Jamaica, the issue of cultural identity is as important as political independence and economic self-sufficiency. Professor Nettleford goes further by declaring that cultural identity is as fundamental a reality as food, shelter, clothing and job opportunities and is not a mere abstract preoccupation. For this reason, cultural ‘action’ is central to effective social change. This new edition should therefore continue to appeal to policy makers, culture workers and students of cultural studies as well as the general reader interested in the place of culture in development.
