This book provides a much-needed study of the lived experience of
militarization in the Caribbean from 1914 to the present. It offers
an alternative to policy and security studies by drawing on the
perspectives of literary and cultural studies, history,
anthropology, ethnography, music, and visual art. Rather than
opposing or defending militarization per se, this book focuses
attention on how Caribbean people negotiate militarization in their
everyday lives. The volume explores topics such as the US
occupation of Haiti; British West Indians in World War I; the
British naval invasion of Anguilla; military bases including
Chaguaramas, Vieques and Guantanamo; the militarization of the
police; sex work and the military; drug wars and surveillance;
calypso commentaries; private security armies; and border patrol
operations.
