This edited collection considers the significance of Creole
cultures within current, changing global contexts. With a
particular focus on post-colonial Small Island Developing States,
it brings together perspectives from academics, policy makers and
practitioners including those based in Dominica, St Lucia,
Seychelles and Mauritius. Together they provide a rich exploration
of issues that arise in relation to safeguarding the intangible
cultural heritage that sustains Creole identities. Commencing with
considerations of the UNESCO (2003) Convention for the Safeguarding
of the Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH), the collection then
presents case studies from the Seychelles, Mauritius, St. Lucia and
Dominica. These attest to the many and different ways through which
Creole cultural practices remain significant to the lived
experiences of Creole communities. These chapters exemplify how
through activities such as storytelling, singing, dancing, making
artworks and the alternative economic practice of
koudmen, Creole peoples sustain cultural identities that draw
strength from their traditions. Yet there is also recognition of
the continual struggle to sustain Creole cultural practices in the
face of global economic and political pressures and related
uncertainties. This global economic landscape also has an impact
upon how Creole cultures are presented to tourists and hence upon
the ways in which cultural practices are supported.Â
