In 800-words describe and explain how the ‘fisherman’s war’ serves as an example of how “culture” and “cultural symbols” were used by the residents of Vieques in their struggles to stop the bombing by the U.S. Navy.
Be sure to discuss:
the history of fishing in Vieques and how fishing changed
how the symbol “fisherman as peasant” became a mobilizing image
how the symbol of the fisherman came to represent the viequense identity
why do you think it was a successful mobilizing symbol
the way the use of cultural elements lead to political action
their outcome
[IMPORTANT: The forum is based on McCaffrey’s book Military power and popular protest: the U.S. Navy in Vieques, Puerto Rico. Be aware that the question is not asking to describe Vieques’ history, the injustice of the Navy’s activities, the history of the movement against the Navy, or how you feel about it. The exercise is only about how culture served as a mobilizing tool for the people of Vieques. Finally, when developing your posting remember to include what you’ve read about traditions and about how all culture is symbolic.]
