Abstract:
Resumo: A conquista da liberdade no Caribe inglês se deu meio século antes da abolição da escravidão no Brasil, porém, assim como no Brasil e nos Estados Unidos, a emancipação do trabalhador não significou grande progresso em sua situação econômica e social. Os libertos foram deixados, na maior parte dos casos, sem casas e sem terras para trabalhar, com sua liberdade tolhida em diferentes maneiras, por leis, normas ou costumes. Ao estudar o caso da ilha de Barbados e a luta dos negros barbadianos por moradia e trabalho no Pós-Abolição, procura-se desvendar as dinâmicas de controle dos trabalhadores negros e as estratégias por estes construídas para escaparem ao controle dos patrões e da elite. Neste artigo, a luta pela moradia e pela posse da terra é examinada em conexão a outros fatores, tais como extensão territorial, lutas políticas e o desenvolvimento de um sistema de educação mais inclusivo, passando pelas migrações negras e distinções de gênero.Palavras-Chave: Pós-Abolição, moradia, educação, Caribe, Barbados, trabalho

Abstract:
Barbadian ways of speaking draw their stylistic richness from intertwined and differentially valued resources of Creole (Bajan) and Barbadian English. Barbadians (and linguists) interpret this formal diversity through two ideological paradigms. One (labeled in Bajan, “adjusting to suit”) corresponds to linguist’s “register”. By attending to laminations of individual repertoires and to skills of their selective contextual deployment, the paradigm indexes the richness of speakers’ resources. The other paradigm interprets the stylistic diversity of speakers’ repertoires in essentializing, “sociolectal” terms that iconically link social categories and polarized language varieties. By exaggerating the distinctiveness of language varieties and by turning them into unambiguous indices of fixed social personae, the paradigm colludes with the hierarchies of linguistic and social prestige. These paradigms and hierarchies can be approached in terms of historical processes that defined their social and linguistic targets. Such a framework, however, neglects institutional sites pivotal in the continued production of cultural orders of language - the literature, media, and theater. Within these sites, characterized by hightened metadiscursive awareness, ideological tensions surrounding language and its couplings with social, racial, and national identities are scripted and launched into public domain. Macrohistorical explanations also neglect the processes that turn specific linguistic forms into emblems of Barbadian language varieties while erasing others. By considering strategies and practices of (re)allocation of linguistic styles to characters in literature, journalism, and theater, I explore sociocultural and semiotic underpinnings of drawing Creole and Barbadian English forms into production of linguistically marked social identities and socially marked language varieties.

Abstract:
Bourgeoning technological advances in biomedicine profoundly animate modern biopolitical understandings of risk and protection and related ways of knowing, offering, and seeking care. But what might it mean to embody protection by means of suspicion toward these very medicotechnological deployments of care? What can suspicion toward biomedical and technological forms of care teach us about histories of risk, medicine, and the imperative to care in the postcolonial world? This article wrestles with these questions. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Barbados between 2015 and 2018, it embraces care’s historically antithetical meanings to examine the caring work of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and Afro-Barbadians’ hesitancy toward it. Looking closer at care, the impetus to care, and the consequences of refusing that care, it gestures toward the risks and potentialities of not-doing and the affective feelings of suspicion that exist for Afro-Barbadian parents who have refused the care of the HPV vaccine for their adolescent children amid an epidemic of cervical cancer in the developing world.

Abstract:
Despite widespread awareness of the rise of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and the growing threat of climate change, little research has explored future health outcomes that will occur at the intersection of these challenges. Ten Barbadian health professionals were interviewed to assess their knowledge of health risks of climate change as it relates to NCDs in Barbados as a case study of a small island state at risk. There is widespread concern among health professionals about the current and future prevalence of non-communicable diseases among Barbadians. There is less concern about the future burden of NCDs in the context of a changing climate, largely because of a lack of knowledge among the majority of the health experts interviewed. Those knowledgeable about potential connections noted the difficulty that climate change would pose to the prevention and management of NCDs, given the impacts of climate stressors to food security, the built environment, and physiological and psychosocial health impacts. Lack of awareness among health professionals of the risk climate change poses to NCD prevalence and impact is reflective of the country’s health priorities that fail to recognize the risk of climate change. We recommend efforts to disseminate information about climate change to stakeholders in the health sector to increase awareness.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the beliefs, self-perceptions, and self-reported behaviors around physical activity among Barbadian women on the Caribbean island of Barbados, and among Barbadian migrant women in Atlanta, Georgia. It investigates their perceptions and practices of physical activity and its relationship to health, and how these ideas and practices differ between the two sites. Design/methodology/approach Situated within long-term ethnographic research conducted in both study sites, this paper focuses on qualitative interview data and quantitative physical activity logs from 31 Barbadian women. Findings Most study subjects expressed belief that physical activity is valuable to their health. Women in Barbados described their own lives as active, and documented this activity in their physical activity logs. However, women in Atlanta described patterns of limited activity that were evidenced in their logs. Qualitative interviews determined that the overarching reasons for this inactivity are the structural confines of wage labor and the built environment. Social implications These findings indicate that rather than health promotions that emphasize individual responsibility, physical activity levels in US migrant populations may more likely be altered by addressing the structural limitations of the American work day or the ubiquitous urban commute time. Originality/value This paper is unique in its contribution of dual-sited qualitative research that explores the motivations and limitations of physical activity in a migrant population. In addition, it enhances the existing literature by examining a native-English-speaking, middle-class population in migration.

Abstract:
On the evidence of textual attestations from 1676-1835, early Barbadian English is shown to have exhibited many more nonstandard features than is generally recognized. Such features, which are commonly, if not exclusively, found in pidgins and creoles, include vowel epenthesis, paragoge and initial s-deletion processes, creole tense-modality-aspect marking, copula absence, the use of invariant no as a preverbal negative and as an emphatic positive marker, the occurrence of one as indefinite article, and a variety of morphologically unmarked pronominal forms. The texts consist of samples of African and Afro-Barbadian speech from historical sources, including ones which linguists have not previously considered. The textual samples are examined century by century, accompanied by a detailed account of the contemporary sociohistorical setting, and interpreted in terms of known and inferred Caribbean patterns of sociolinguistic variation, both in the present and in the past. It is concluded that while early Barbadian speech comprised a range of varieties, creolelike varieties were undoubtedly a part of that range.

Abstract:
Analyses the novel 'Brown girl, brownstones' (1959) by Paule Marshall. Author argues that this novel offers a complex and nuanced understanding of how Caribbean migration impacts upon cultural identity, and how this cultural identity is dynamically produced, rather than static. He describes how the novel deals with Barbadian migrants to the US in the 1930s and 1940s, and further elaborates on how through this novel Marshall problematizes common dichotomies, such as between the public and the private, and between racial (black) and ethnic (Caribbean) identity. Furthermore, he indicates that Marshall through her representation of the Barbadian community, foregrounds the central role of women in the production of Caribbean identity in the US. In this, he shows, Bajan women's talk from the private sphere is very important. Further, the author discusses how the Barbadian identity is broadened to encompass Caribbean and African Americans in the novel, thus creating transnational black diaspora connections, such as by invoking James Baldwin and Marcus Garvey.

It deals about black people immigration from British Caribbean Islands to Belém, which occurred in the first decades of the 20th century, more precisely of those who were generally called Barbadians (barbadianos). It discusses the contours of this identification in Belém and analyses the life stories of the descendants of the second and third generations. It aims to discuss in which contexts and situations the signs of their identifications were manipulated to mark distinctions, by them and by others. In order to do this, it considers the symbols (of prestige and stigma) of the British, Brazilian and Barbadian identities, when they were related one to the other, and passed through by the process of demarcation of alterity, but also by the racism.

Abstract:
A descrição dum subgénero dentro da ficção histórica que se distinguiu pela sua distanciação do Romance Histórico Tradicional em vários aspetos, o chamado Novo Romance Histórico, ocupou muitos estudiosos nas últimas décadas. Mais recentemente, o catedrático português Carlos Reis realçou a importância da personagem como categoria narrativa na literatura, opondo-se às tendências estruturalistas que marcam os estudos literários modernos. Na nossa pesquisa, rastreamos o processo da figuração duma personagem coletiva no romance Mad Maria do escritor brasileiro Márcio Souza: os trabalhadores barbadianos. Por um lado, observamos como o autor usou dados historiográficos para a figuração duma personagem coletiva baseada num grupo de trabalhadores caribenhos, cuja participação nas obras da ferrovia Madeira-Mamoré no início do século passado é bem documentada. Pelo outro lado, consideramos a relevância desta personagem em relação à ideologia do escritor, posto que uma das características fundamentais do Novo Romance Histórico é a narração do passado histórico através de personagens pertencentes a grupos marginais, cuja voz não faz parte do discurso historiográfico tradicional. La descripción de un subgénero de la ficción histórica, el cual se destaca por alejarse en varios aspectos de la Novela Histórica Tradicional, a saber, la llamada Nueva Novela Histórica, ha ocupado a muchos estudiosos en las últimas décadas. Más recientemente, el catedrático portugués Carlos Reis realzó la importancia del personaje como categoría narrativa en la literatura, en oposición a las tendencias estructuralistas que marcan los estudios literarios modernos. En nuestras investigaciones, vamos rastreando el proceso de figuración de un personaje colectivo en la novela Mad Maria del escritor brasileño Márcio Souza: los trabajadores barbadenses. Por un lado, observamos como el autor empleó datos biográficos para la figuración de un personaje colectivo inspirado en un grupo de trabajadores caribeños, cuyo papel en la construcción de la vía férrea Madeira-Mamoré a principios del siglo pasado está bien documentado. Por otro lado, consideramos la relevancia de dicho personaje respecto a la ideología del escritor, habida cuenta que un rasgo diferencial de la Nueva Novela Histórica es la narración del pasado histórico por medio de personajes de proveniencia marginal, cuya voz no forma parte del discurso historiográfico tradicional. The task of describing a subgenre of historical fiction which clearly sets itself apart in many respects from the Traditional Historical Novel, namely, the so-called New Historical Novel, has occupied a number of scholars in the past few decades. More recently, the Portuguese university professor Carlos Reis has emphasized the character's importance as a narrative category within literature, in contrast to the structuralist tendencies which characterize modern literary studies. In our research, we trace the representational process of a collective character - the Barbadian labourers - in the Brazilian authorMárcio Souza's novel Mad Maria. First of all, we analyze the author's use of historiographical data in the depiction of a collective character based on a group of Caribbean labourers, whose role in constructing the Madeira-Mamoré railroad early in the last century is well documented. Second of all, we consider this character's relevance to the writer's ideological profile, since one of the New Historical Novel's distinguishing features is the narration of historical events through characters belonging to marginal groups whose voice has been excluded from traditional historiographical discourse.

Cette thèse cherche initialement à reconstituer et présenter une école au début du XX siècle à Porto Velho, au départ des mémoires des récits de professeurs noirs descendants des travailleurs barbadiens qui sont venus travailler dans la construction de la « Estrada de Ferro Madeira-Mamoré – E.F.M.M. », et qui étaient des étudiants à l‟école appelée « dos categas » logée dans des espaces différents de la colline « Alto do Bode » et qui présentait un modèle d‟éducation n‟est pas envisagé, car la ville n‟avait pas des écoles. L‟objectif de cette étude est de présenter, au-delà de l‟école, les mémoires de trois professeurs, les sujets de la recherche, du fonctionnement et des aspects pédagogiques qui soutenaient la pratique de l‟école, ainsi comme l‟aspect mobile, puisque l‟école ne fonctionne pas dans un endroit fixe. Analyser les mémoires en tant que substance sociale du processus historique expérimenté et comme le gardien de l‟individuel et du collectif par rapport à d‟autres aspects comme le langage, l‟identité, l‟affection, la religion, les valeurs et les visions du monde est aussi notre but. Le texte de la thèse est divisé en quatre sections dont la première traite de l‟occupation et exploitation des espaces amazoniques jusqu‟au début de la E.F.M.M.; la seconde présente les Barbadiens, l‟espace dans lequel ils vivaient, l‟école qu‟ils ont construit et comment ils pensaient et ils faisaient l‟éducation; la troisième se constitue de la présentation et l‟analyse des mémoires de l‟école et d‟autres catégories ; la quatrième montre comment c‟est donné la tentative d‟effacer la colline « Alto do Bode » et la tentative de rendre invisible par le gouvernement les marques sociales laissées par les Barbadiens.

A presente tese trata inicialmente da tentativa de reconstituição e apresentação de uma escola no início do século XX, em Porto Velho, a partir das memórias contidas nas narrativas/depoimentos das professoras negras, descendentes de trabalhadores barbadianos que chegaram para trabalhar na construção da Estrada de Ferro Madeira-Mamoré – E.F.M.M, e que foram alunas da chamada escola dos categas, abrigada nos vários espaços do morro do Alto do Bode e que apresentava um modelo de educação não contemplado, pois a cidade não tinha escolas. O objetivo do estudo é apresentar, além da escola, as memórias de três professoras, sujeitos da pesquisa, sobre o funcionamento e os aspectos pedagógicos que fundamentavam a prática escolar, bem como o aspecto móvel, posto que a escola não funcionasse em um lugar fixo. Analisar as memórias como substância social do processo histórico vivenciado e como guardiã do individual e do coletivo em relação a outros aspectos como: linguagem, identidade, afetividade, religião, valores, concepções de mundo se fez também nosso objetivo. A tese divide-se em quatro seções: a primeira trata da ocupação e exploração dos espaços amazônicos até o início da E.F.M.M.; a segunda apresenta os barbadianos, o espaço em que viviam, a escola que construíram e a forma como pensavam e faziam educação; a terceira constitui-se na apresentação e análise das memórias sobre a escola e outras categorias; a quarta mostra como se deu a tentativa de apagamento do morro do Alto do Bode e a tentativa de invisibilizar, pelo governo, as marcas sociais deixadas pelos barbadianos. Dessa forma, a tese traz à tona a história da educação dos barbadianos vindos para a construção da E.F.M.M., e a complexidade de construir e viver o social amazônico
The present thesis initially deals with the attempt of reconstitution and presentation of a school at the beginning of the XXth. century in Porto Velho, based on the memories contained in the narratives/depositions of the negro teachers descending from Barbadian workers who came for the construction of the E.F.M.M Madeira-Mamoré railroad. These teachers were pupils of the so called categas‟ school, sheltered in some spaces of the Alto do Bode (Goat Hill) which presented a model of education not contemplated, once the city did not have schools. The objective of the study is to present, beyond the school, the memories of three teachers on the pedagogical functioning and aspects that based the school practice, as well as the mobility aspect, given that the school was not located in a fixed place. To analyze the memories as social substance of the lived historical process and as an individual and collective guardian relating to other aspects such as: language, identity, affectivity, religion, values, world conceptions also made up our objective. The text is divided in four sections: the first one deals with the occupation and exploration of the Amazonian spaces until the beginning of E.F.M.M.; the second section presents the Barbadians, the space where they lived, the school they built and the way they thought and made education; the third one consists of the presentation and analysis of the memories around the school and other categories; the fourth shows how the attempt to erase the Alto do Bode and the attempt of the government to make it invisible, the social marks left by the Barbadians. This way the thisis bring to light the barbadian education history who came with the E.F.M.M railroad builand the complexity of the amazonic social building and living

Abstract:
This study is an exploration of the educational experiences of women from the Caribbean island of Barbados who traveled to the USA to pursue higher education. An autoethnography research methodology was used in order to capture each woman’s educational experiences. Autoethnography also supported the inclusion of the researcher’s voice and interpretations as a Barbadian woman fitting the criteria for participation. These educational journeys represented the field and cultural world under study. Through analysis, themes emerged from each woman's description of Influential Others; Protagonist Self; and Educational Settings within her storied journey. Storied experiences in relation to race, ethnicity, and being women and the role American Higher Education had in each woman's life were also analyzed. The emergent themes supported the existence of a web of interacting narratives spun first in Barbados and extending to American Higher Education. Through the educational settings each woman interacted with, this web of narratives linked her educational journey to the narratives of the people who went before her; beside her; and after her. This web of narratives also supports each woman’s storied understanding of self, others, and settings within that journey.

Abstract:
This study investigates the use of volunteered geographic information to visualize environmental changes in Barbados. The aim of this research is to identify the extent to which participation in the Geoweb allows Bajans to communicate their concerns and observations regarding environmental change. This is addressed through three research questions: (1) Can Bajans successfully manipulate the Geoweb to report environmental changes?, (2) How are Bajans currently using computers and the Internet?, and (3) How are Bajans sharing their environmental change concerns? These questions were answered using qualitative research methods: participant observation, semi-structured interviews, group interviews and participatory mapping sessions. Drawbacks to using the Geoweb that were identified include access to technology and language. Much like traditional forms of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), participation is limited by access to hardware and technical expertise, while differences in dialect can hinder the search for local place names and relevant content. The benefits of the Geoweb include the ability to host information for a wide Internet audience. Free software to generate maps and satellite imagery available on the Geoweb can stimulate discussion about local environmental change and provides a place to document this local knowledge. It is hoped that this study can guide other Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and small communities towards an innovative use of geospatial technology.
Cette étude examine l'utilisation des informations géographiques offertes volontairement pour visualiser les changements environnementaux de la Barbade. L'objectif de cette recherche est de déterminer la mesure dans laquelle la participation au Géoweb permet aux Barbadiens de communiquer leurs préoccupations et leurs observations concernant les changements environnementaux.Cette problématique est abordée à travers trois questions de recherche: (1) Les Barbadiens peuvent-ils utiliser le Géoweb avec succès afin de signaler les changements environnementaux?, (2) Comment les Barbadiens utilisent-ils actuellement les ordinateurs et Internet, et (3) De quelle manière les Barbadiens partagent-ils leurs préoccupations liées aux changements environnementaux? Ces questions ont été traitées en utilisant des méthodes de recherche qualitative: observation participante, entretiens semi-structurés, entrevues de groupe et séances de cartographie participative. Les inconvénients à l'utilisation du Géoweb qui ont été identifiés comprennent l'accès à la technologie et à la langue. Tout comme les formes traditionnelles de Systèmes d'information géographique (SIG), la participation est limitée par l'accès aux ordinateurs et à l'expertise technique, tandis que les différences entre les dialectes peuvent poser des obstacles à la recherche des noms de lieux locaux. Les avantages du Géoweb incluent la capacité de rejoindre un grand auditoire par l'entremise du Web. Les logiciels offerts gratuitement pour produire des cartes, ainsi que les images satellites disponibles sur le Géoweb, peuvent stimuler un débat sur les changements environnementaux locaux et fournissent un endroit pour sauvegarder ces connaissances locales. Il est à espérer que cette étude puisse guider d'autres Petits États Insulaires en Développement (PEID) et petites communautés vers une utilisation novatrice de la technologie géospatiale.

Full text
Abstract:
This study is a qualitative investigation of the professional identity structure of teachers in Barbados, a small post-colonial Caribbean territory. The aim was to determine whether Barbadian teachers regard themselves as professionals and to what extent their occupational/professional identity structure could be described by a pre-conceptualized set of categories. Data was collected from a focus group made up of teachers of both genders from primary, secondary and tertiary educational institutions in the country. Teachers in the study claim to be professionals despite acknowledging that teaching in Barbados is not recognized as a profession. This seemingly paradoxical claim is explained by the fact that teachers regard being a professional as an individual determination characterized by a different set of criteria from those that define a profession. By making this claim, Barbadian teachers appear to have mitigated the potential threat to the coherence of their professional self-concept brought about by the perceived discrepancy between the importance of their role as teachers and the non-recognition of teaching as a profession. The empirical data supports the four pre-conceptualized identity categories but four additional categories were uncovered. Overall, the findings support the contention that professional identity is an aspect of the self-concept; consequently, it is subject to the principle of self-concept maintenance.

Abstract:
This chapter explores socioeconomic interactions between “Poor Whites” or “Redlegs” and Afro-Barbadians as interpreted through material culture and a particular reading of a Barbadian plantation landscape. The tenantry of Below Cliff, now shrouded in dense forest, is located on the “rab” land or marginal zone of Clifton Hall plantation deemed unsuitable for large-scale agricultural production. Despite the marginality of the space in terms of plantation production and a perceived socioeconomic isolation of island “poor whites” in general, Below Cliff was a space of heightened interracial interaction. I argue that such seemingly marginal spaces (as well as the people who inhabit them) are significant arenas through which to explore the dynamic and nuanced race relations that play out in everyday life on and around the plantation. While plantation slavery was crucial in the development of modern racial ideologies and hierarchies, including attempts to rigidly impose and police racial boundaries, archaeological evidence suggests that on the local level these boundaries were exceedingly porous.
