I-Sight
- Rastafari is one of the most significant yet least understood new religious movements in the twentieth century
- Originating in Jamaica in the 1930s
- It has evolved into a popular international phenomenon
- Yet scholars have continued to view Rastafari in a marginal way as an other-worldly
- Fragile
- Or avant-garde social emergent
- This book argues
- Rather
- That Rastafari represents a transformative consciousness of I-Sight which is paradigmatic of a new social ethic
- This ethic reflects a distinctive self-understanding (I-n-I)
