Description
This study focuses on occupational identity of Cuban exile
fishermen in Dade County, Florida, and the strength of this
identity when faced with the Bahamian fishing conflict
(1973-1975). It was hypothesized that this identity would
become stronger because of this conflict. Other hypotheses
predicted differences between perceived and actual fishing
legislation in the United States, pre-revolutionary and
revolutionary Cuba. The same comparison was made with
occupational status. Subjective data was obtained from a
questionnaire administered to fifty fishermen. Strength of
occupational identity was not as strong as expected. Subjective
views on fishing legislation and status did show a
discrepancy with objective data. A number of fishermen conformed
to all hypotheses, and further analyses attempt to
explain the stronger occupational identity of this group.
