Two faces of Caribbean music.
BOXILL, Ian
Two faces of Caribbean music. - 1994
Portrays Caribbean music as somewhat contradictory in orientation since, on the one hand, its history, its attack on oppression, its political message and its reference to racial and cultural identity, all confirm its role in the process of development. On the other hand, the music in its various forms reinforces capitalist values, and promotes nationalism in the face of stark social and cultural differences.
