Recenzii

"The Rastafari Movement: A North American and Caribbean Perspective, is a valuable addition to the genre of Rastafari Studies. This well-referenced new book takes a timely, detailed and in-depth look at the ideological, philosophical and theological factors currently impacting the growth and development of the Rastafari Movement."
- I. Jabulani Tafari, Publisher/Author, Fort Lauderdale, USA.
"The Rastafari Movement is a timely and important contribution to the growing body of literature in Rastafari studies. The combination of sociological, theological, and anthropological methods to study Rastafari makes this book a truly significant multidisciplinary contribution. Barnett successfully clarifies misunderstandings about the Rastafari and provides meaningful insights into ideological dynamics of the movement."
- Randy Goldson, Temple University
"This will be a helpful book for general readers. It intro-duces concepts and contemporary questions affecting Rastafari, and it describes the diversity of the movement beyond what the older standard texts provide."
- Richard C. Salter, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Nova Religio 23
