Описание: Sinds 150 jaar wordt Surinaams erfgoed bewaard en getoond in musea. Die werden opgericht en geleid door mensen waarvan de achtergrond uiteenliep van planter tot onderwijzer en van wetenschapper tot politieagent. Pepijn Reeser beschrijft hoe en op basis van welke ideeen deze musea tot stand kwamen en hoe ze zich verhielden tot ontwikkelingen in Suriname en Nederland. Steeds weer bleek de behoefte aan eenheid in zowel het koloniale als onafhankelijke Suriname de motor achter vrijwel alle museale initiatieven.De nadruk ligt op de geschiedenis van het in 2012 vijfenzestigjarige Surinaams Museum, gevestigd in Fort Zeelandia. Het boek bevat een groot aantal afbeeldingen van opstellingen, tentoonstellingen en topstukken uit de museumcollectie. Verzamelaars en volksopvoeders werpt zo nieuw en helder licht op het Surinaamse museumwezen en mag met recht het eerste standaardwerk op dit gebied genoemd worden.

Описание: The foreign policy of small states is an often neglected topic, which is particularly the case when it comes to Suriname. How did the young Republic deal with its dependency on the Netherlands for development aid after 1975? Was Paramaribo following a certain foreign policy strategy or did it merely react towards internal and external events? What were the decision making processes in defining the foreign policy course and who was involved in these processes? And why was a proposal discussed to hand back the right of an independent foreign and defence policy to a Dutch Commonwealth government in the early 1990s?

These questions are examined here in depth, in the first comprehensive analysis of Suriname's foreign policy from 1975 to 1991. The book provides readers interested in Caribbean and Latin American affairs with a detailed account of Suriname's external relations. Moreover, the young Republic may stand as a case study, as it confronted the difficulties and challenges that small developing states often face.

Описание: When the colonial slave trade, and then slavery itself, were abolished early in the 19th century, the British empire brazenly set up a new system of trade using Indian rather than African laborers. The new system of indentured labor was supposed to be different from slavery because the
indenture, or contract, was written for an initial period of five years and involved fixed wages and some specified conditions of work. From the workers' point of view, the one redeeming feature of the system was that most of their workmates spoke their language and came from the same area of India.
Because this allowed them to develop some sense of community, by the end of the initial five years most of the Indian laborers chose to stay in the land to which they had been taken. In time that land became the place in which they joined with others to build a new homeland. In this fieldwork-based
study, Paul Younger looks at the present day descendents of these workers and their post-indenture societies in Mauritius, Guyana, Trinidad, South Africa, Fiji, and East Africa. He finds that they still cling to the fact that it was an arbitrary British decision that took them there and made the
society pluralistic. This plurality seems to require them to search their memory for a distinctive religious tradition that they can pass on to their children. They know that there was a loss of culture involved in their move to these locations and consider it important to recover from that loss.
But they are also intensely proud of their new identity, and insist that they have established a new religious tradition in their new homeland. For generations, says Younger, these people had struggled in their situation and now they had come up with a sense of community and purpose and were
prepared to make the historical claim that they had developed an appropriate religious tradition for their specific community.
