The increasing visibility of individuals engaging in small-scale
business enterprises outside formal wage employment has been a
topic of debate for many years, in many countries. The Caribbean
Community (CARICOM) is no exception. In fact, the informal economy
has become a persistent feature of the region's economic landscape
and has been thriving, as documented by leading Caribbean scholars.
Informal Commercial Importers in CARICOM is the first book to
examine the various dimensions of informal commercial importing
from an aggregate CARICOM perspective, emphasizing the economic
dimensions and providing three empirical surveys of informal
commercial importing in Guyana, Dominica and Jamaica. Roger Hosein
and Martin Franklin provide a rich survey of the literature on
shuttle trading, which aids in contextualizing the range of factors
that has given rise to shuttle trading in CARICOM and enabled its
longevity. They discuss the possible effects of formalizing the
informal trade in CARICOM economies and propose strategies that can
aid in this formalization process. While this book is written to
appeal to an academic audience, it also provides essential reading
for policymakers, research scholars and practitioners alike, and it
provides a foundation for further studies of the shuttle trade in a
changing Caribbean.
