Originally published in 1990. The Caribbean basin is an extremely
diverse area in geographical, ethnic and cultural terms. Its
educational systems, too, are remarkably varied, reflecting
colonial and religious traditions as well as those of a broad range
of post-independence movements. Even these show a pronounced
merging of the home-grown and the foreign, with the influence of
the superpowers never far away. This book comprises a number of
case studies ranging across the Caribbean region. The contributors
focus in particular on Puerto Rico, Cuba, Jamaica, the British
Virgin Islands, Mexico City, Central America, Costa Rica and
Venezuela. By assembling studies from diverse cultural and
political traditions and networks, the book gives a more
comprehensive Caribbean perspective on education than has hitherto
been available.
