Abstract

A cultural accounting matrix (CAM) is a means of describing and analyzing the cultural division of labor in socially and economically segmented societies. This paper explains the background to the CAM approach and applies it to a small Caribbean island. The analysis involves identifying the way in which the present‐day division of labor between the principal resident populations of the Island has arisen and calculating inter‐relational income distribution multipliers between the populations.
