The security issues which have come into prominence since the
September 11 terrorist attack in the USA provide both the starting
point and the focus for this comprehensive survey of contemporary
security issues in the Caribbean. This volume assesses the impact
of the 9/11 terrorist attack on Caribbean states and examines the
institutional and operational terrorism response capacity of
security agencies in the region. However, understanding security
challenge and change in the Caribbean context requires a
broad-based multidimensional approach; terrorism for the small,
open and vulnerable nation states of the Caribbean region is a real
security issue but even more so, is a range of untraditional
threats like crime, drug trafficking, territorial disputes,
environmental degradation and the rapid spread of the HIV/AIDS
epidemic. How these states adapt policies and practices to adjust
to the new regional and global circumstances represent the
challenge and the change.
