Dear Dr Barad, Some people with a science background expect the real world (and the humanities) to have specific answers to everything. I doubt life is so simple. On some issues, we could just have opinions, perspectives or understandings. My own bias and beliefs might have emerged from some of the posts I've made on this issue.... By the way, Dr Teotonio R. DeSouza addresses your very issue in the article below Is There One Goan Identity, Several or None? http://www.lusotopie.sciencespobordeaux.fr/souzaT.pdf by TR de SOUZA He writes there: " To conclude, there are as many facets of Goan identity as individuals who associate themselves with Goa, whatever the intensity of involvement, whatever the length of time, whether from inside or outside its geographical borders. The multi-faceted Goan identity accompanies the myriads of hearts and minds with their myriad talents and potentialities to keep Goa ever young, ever new."
