This contribution to the debate on security in the Caribbean
highlights the security problems of small states. The contributors
analyze internal and external security issues, military, political,
and economic influences, and security initiatives and policies from
indigenous, regional, and extra-regional perspectives. They also
present empirical case studies of four English-speaking
nations.
The volume begins by introducing the dynamics influencing
Caribbean security: leadership, history, geopolitics, and internal
political violence. Part Two then presents four case studies:
Barbados, Guyana, the Virgin Islands, and the Belize-Guatemala
territorial dispute. Realist theory, conflict theory, political
economy, and political psychology are among the theoretical
frameworks represented in these essays. Focusing particularly on
the English-speaking Caribbean, the authors examine the resources,
institutions, economies, geopolitics, internal instability,
militarization, and intervention shaping the security environment.
This work is an important resource for scholars and policy analysts
of military/security issues, the Caribbean/Latin America, and Third
World development.
