Although a tiny Caribbean island inhabited by only 2.8 million people, Jamaica commands a remarkably large presence on the world stage. Formerly a colony of Britain and shaped by centuries of slavery, violence, and plunder, today Jamaica owes its popular global standing to a massively successful troika of brands: music, sports, and destination tourism. At the same time, extensive media attention focused on its internal political civil war, mushrooming violent crime, inflation, unemployment, poverty, and abuse of human rights have led to perceptions of the country as unsafe. Brand Jamaica explores the current practices of branding Jamaica, particularly within the context of postcoloniality, reconciles the lived realities of Jamaicans with the contemporary image of Jamaica projected to the world, and deconstructs the current tourism model of sun, sand, and sea. Hume Johnson and Kamille Gentles-Peart bring together multidisciplinary perspectives that interrogate various aspects of Jamaican national identity and the dominant paradigm by which it has been shaped.<BR /><BR />"--|cProvided by publisher. 520 "Rand Jamaica is an empirical look at Jamaica's postindependence national image and global brand from multidisciplinary perspectives that interrogate various aspects of Jamaican national identity and the dominant paradigm that shaped it"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 21st century|2fast 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Group identity|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85057485|zJamaica.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n81008540-781 650 0 National characteristics, Jamaican.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh91003713 650 7 Civilization.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/862898 650 7 Group identity.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/948442 650 7 National characteristics, Jamaican.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1033458 651 0 Jamaica|xCivilization|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh86004172|y21st century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012478 651 0 Jamaica|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81008540 |xPublic opinion, Foreign. 651 7 Jamaica.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1211575 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Johnson, Hume N.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2011069559|eeditor. 700 1 Gentles-Peart, Kamille,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2012078640|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tBrand Jamaica.|dLincoln : University of Nebraska Press, [2019]|z9781496200563|w(DLC) 2019015631 |w(OCoLC)1090009895 830 0 Book collections on Project MUSE. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2276604|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
