- Synopsis
- This study will show the emergence and development of the Rastafarians cult from its inception in 1930 to the present. Particular attention will be paid to the socioeconomic conditions from which this cult emerged; its ideology; its function as a socio-religious movement within the Jamaican community; and its impact on the Western world. This book will also explore some of the myths surrounding the movement, as well as discussing some of the more serious contributions the Rastafarians have made to Jamaican society.
