Éditeur(s) : APHGG : Association des Professeurs d'Histoire-Géographie de Guyane SAAHG : Société des Amis des Archives de l'Histoire de la Guyane Extrait de : "La Guyane au temps de l'esclavage : discours, pratiques et représentations, XVIIe-XIXe siècle" : colloque international, du 16 au 19 novembre 2010. Université des Antilles et de la Guyane Description : Selon l'article 2 du code noir, les esclaves doivent être baptisés et instruits. La christianisation est-elle ainsi un élément structurant ou une force potentiellement déstabilisatrice du système colonial ? La position des pouvoirs publics évoluent selon les périodes. Au début, la religion justifie l'esclavage afin de sauver les âmes des déportés. Puis, elle assoie le système colonial en promettant l'espérance d'une vie meilleure dans l'au-delà afin de contenir les esclaves. Enfin, sous la monarchie de juillet, il faut moraliser les esclaves avant l'abolition. La religion est donc au service du système colonial, seulement de nombreuses ordonnances indiquent en local des résistances importantes de la part des maîtres à l'éducation religieuse des esclaves car toute instruction pourrait permettre aux esclaves de développer une conscience émancipatrice.

![]() | Rastafari: Alternative Religion and Resistance against “White” Christianity Auteur(s) : Kroubo Dagnini, Jérémie Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles Études caribéennes Résumé : Since the early sixteenth century, the history of Jamaica has been associated successively with slavery, Christian Evangelization, colonialism and neocolonialism, which gave rise to numerous revolutions, riots and various other forms of social unrest. Black Jamaicans have always lived in a constant state of resistance, a mentality that gave birth, in the early thirties, to a Jamaican religion called Rastafari. Besides studying the roots and symbolism of Rastafari, my paper is aimed at defining the Rasta movement as a religion born as a legitimate response to oppression and Christian Evangelization. In other words, my work examines Rastafari as a Pan-African and Afrocentric version of “White” Christianity. Depuis le début du seizième siècle, l’histoire de la Jamaïque a successivement été associée à l’esclavage, l’évangélisation, la colonisation et le néo-colonialisme, ce qui a engendré de nombreuses révolutions, émeutes et autres formes d’agitation sociale. Les Jamaïcains noirs ont toujours vécu dans un état de résistance, une mentalité qui a donné naissance, au début des années 1930, à une religion jamaïcaine appelée rastafari. Le but de cet article n’est pas seulement d’étudier les origines et le symbolisme de rastafari, mais également de définir le mouvement rasta comme une religion née en réponse légitime à l’oppression et l’évangélisation. En d’autres termes, cette étude analyse rastafari comme une version panafricaine et afrocentrique du christianisme « blanc ».
