Centring the Periphery

Chaos, Order, and the Ethnohistory of Dominica

Buch

Patrick Baker's post-modern approach uses ideas from chaos theory and world systems theory to interpret the prehistory and history of Dominica. During its prehistory Dominica served as an occasional stepping-stone for small-scale, independent foraging and horticultural peoples migrating up the Antillean arc to the larger islands in the north. Its discovery by Europeans brought it into a social and economic constellation that was constructed and orchestrated largely from the metropolitan centre. Centring the Periphery is the unfolding story of the struggle of the Dominican people to create and order a world that is controlled from outside.
