The Spanish expression – la cultura cura (culture heals) – is an affirmation of the potential healing power of a variety of cultural practices that together constitute the ethos of a people. What happens, however, when cultures themselves are in jeopardy? What are the "antidotes" or healing modalities for an ailing culture? Healing Cultures addresses these questions from a variety of disciplines – anthropology, holistic folk traditions, literature, film, cultural and religious studies – bringing together the broad range of beliefs and the spectrum of practices that have sustained the peoples and cultures of the Caribbean.
