The contributors to Globalization, Sovereignty and Citizenship in
the Caribbean variously address topics and issues of colonial and
postcolonial citizenship, identity and belonging; sovereignty and
the body politic and unresolved class and other contradictions of
the Haitian Revolution, Commonwealth Caribbean societies, Cuba, and
the non-independent territories of Puerto Rico and the Netherlands
Antilles, the French Antilles, and the Cayman Islands. There are
degrees of emphasis on the contradictory relationship between
globalization and national processes, with attention to class,
state, nation, gender, racialization, culture, migrant labour and
other political concerns. Other topics include ways in which the
United States, the United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands
influence conceptions of state security and governance and how
cultural and ideological commitments to democracy and sovereignty
reinforce certain sovereignty myths and contribute to the assertion
that globalization represents a threat to sovereignty, democracy
and freedom in the Caribbean. The deepening of the integration of
the entire Caribbean into the contradictory processes of
globalization suggests that sovereignty, democracy, citizenship,
belonging and identity as experienced in the region are best
theorized as unfinished (open-ended) projects.
