http://poseidon.uprm.edu/lander/j_lander.html

Extractions: INTRODUCTION: Tsunamis are not the major natural hazard in the Caribbean but they have the potential to produce a major disaster which can be mitigated with proper preparation. This history has reports on 56 tsunamis affecting the Caribbean in historic times. These have affected 22 countries and administrative areas including northern South America and Central America; these are listed in Table 1 . The record for the last hundred years lists 20 tsunamis or about one every 5 years. It contains information about tsunamis from several types of sources. Source mechanisms include tsunamis from remote sources (teletsunamis), landslide tsunamis, volcanic tsunamis, and tectonic tsunamis associated with trenches and with transform faults. Figure 1 shows that the locations affected by tsunamis include nearly the whole of the Caribbean region. This history was compiled mostly from published sources available internationally. Additional events and effects would likely be found by searching locally available sources.

The first inhabitants of the island were tribes of Amerindians: the peaceful Arawaks and the more fierce Caribs for whom the region is named. It is suspected that the cannibalistic Caribs drove the Arawaks off the island but abandoned it themselves by the early 1600's."

Once these proud and warlike people held sway over the Eastern Caribbean, the few hundred remaining Caribs were forced to the remotest part of Dominica and forgotten However, in 1903 they were officially granted their own territory.

History Of Credit Unions
CREDIT UNION history. Tremmerie, the founder of the credit union movement in dominica, credit unions become the most popular type of cooperative in the Region.
http://www.rccu.net/credit_history.htm

Extractions: The co-operative credit movement arose out of a specific set of historical circumstances. It was born in Europe out of the urgent goal of economic survival. Economic depression fueled by widespread crop failures and one of the harshest winters ever in the "hungry forties" led to the formation of all kinds of co-operatives. The first "people's bank" or credit union was organised by Hermann Schulze-Delitzsch of Germany in 1850. The idea was simple. People would pool their money and make loans to each other at reasonable interest rates. Since these people were all connected in some way (they all lived in one town or they all belonged to one church, etc.) they would be borrowing their own money and that of their friends. The basic principles were: Membership was open to anyone willing to accept the requirements.

We will review the history of how ethnicity and race have been defined in the Latin America studies (historiography) and the ideologies and practices associated with these categories. Our readings will be drawn mostly from Brazil, Mexico, Cuba, Peru, El Salvador and Guatemala. These cases will involve materials that combine these categories in complex ways. For this reason, we will also emphasize understanding the larger historical contexts of the case studies. We will start by dedicating two weeks to theoretical and conceptual discussions on race, ethnicity and the relationship between region and nation. After this we will examine a few case studies drawn from the colonial perioda foundational period that will remain important throughout the entire course. We will then examine race and ethnic patterns during the transitional years of the nineteenth century, especially through the lens of how different regions experienced their integration into the nation-state and the construction of new hierarchies. Finally we will look at the twentieth century and consider to what extent the once-dominant regional patterns of race and ethnic relations become subsumed to national or state-based forces, and how ethnicity and race have come back since the 1980s as important aspects of the regions history.
