This book, first published in 1984, recounts the daily life, the
politics, religion and leisure pursuits of Jamaicans in working-
and middle-class Kingston. The study is based upon the author's
observations of life in Selton Town and Vermount, two neighborhoods
of Kingston, between 1971 and 1982. The author analyses the local
social conflicts and ideologies, thereby, demonstrating how larger
issues of class domination and cultural hegemony pervade
neighbourhood life. The study provides a detailed contextual
account of the significance of belonging to different classes. It
provides a different perspective of Caribbean anthropology
combining the techniques of ethnography and political economy.
