Jamaican Home Remedies: Goodbye Allergies and Colds!

Jamaica's Bloody Democracy

I like this article by Professor Patterson that examines the connection between politics and crime and violence in Jamaica ORLANDO PATTERSON Cambridge, Mass. THE violence tearing apart Jamaica, a democratic state, raises serious questions not only about its government’s capacity to provide basic security but, more broadly and disturbingly, the link between violence and democracy itself. The specific causes of the turmoil are well known. For decades political leaders have used armed local gangs to mobilize voters in their constituencies; the gangs are rewarded with the spoils of power, in particular housing and employment contracts they can dole out.
