Abstract: | If there is anything about Malta which strikes any observer, local or foreign, it is the rate of change which the country has undergone in recent years. Changes are visible on all fronts: physical, economic, political and above all social. It is no wonder, then, that the subject of change is the one common denominator which underscores all the essays in the volume edited by Michael Briguglio and Maria Brown, entitled Sociology of the Maltese Islands (2016). One cannot help wondering what someone like Herbert Ganado would write if he were to update his famous books, aptly entitled ‘Rajt Malta Tinbidel’ (I have watched Malta change). |
