Have efforts to advance women's and men's commitments to democratic
governance, women's rights and gender equality been successful in
the Caribbean? Do they reflect local as well as international
concerns and visions of gender equality? This edited collection
answers these questions by focusing on women's political
leadership, electoral quota systems, national gender policies and
transformational leadership as four feminist strategies that aim to
engender democracy and citizenship. It offers a rich historical,
comparative and ethnographic perspective on the lived experience of
these strategies through case studies of Trinidad and Tobago,
Guyana, Dominica, Jamaica and St. Lucia. Drawing on national policy
debates, election campaigns, state officials' solidarities, men's
gender consciousness and women leaders' life histories across these
five Caribbean countries, the collection assesses the successes of
transnational feminist efforts, the resilience of masculinist
resistances, the limits of gender mainstreaming and the
possibilities for gender justice in and beyond the Caribbean today.
