This book is an invitation to reflect on how a minority culture emerged from within «Third World» liberation movements. It considers not only the historical and cultural journey between Ethiopia and Jamaica, but also the psychological dynamics of subalterns between the East and the West.

Pressestimmen

«Overall, this topnotch book enables readers to see Rastafari as an avowedly African way of being religious and as such should appeal to students and specialists alike. I warmly recommend it.»
(Darren J. N. Middleton, Nova Religio Vol. 20 No. 3, 2017)
