Critically examining narratives of participation in governance and
development, this volume adds Caribbean voices and experiences to
the global discourse on youth participation. The essays provide
empirical case studies of institutions, practices and processes of
youth engagement in the politics of Caribbean development,
orienting the reader to the political culture of the Caribbean and
the position of youth within small societies. Covering experiences
at intergovernmental, national and local levels, as well as formal
and informal modes of participation, it examines how young people
have organised themselves or have been organised to engage with the
state and with community agents in politics, public policy and
activism. It illustrates the heterogeneity of youth political
participation, employing multi- disciplinary, multi- level and
mixed- method analyses from the fields of demography, political
science, social policy, development studies and youth development.
Critical themes addressed include regional governance, democratic
representation, online engagement, local governance and community
development. In exploring these themes, the book discusses the
legitimacy and inclusiveness of governance in relation to age,
gender, race, geography and socio-economic status. The findings
will be useful to students, researchers and policymakers alike who
are keen to improve governance and contribute to inclusive
sustainable development in the Caribbean.
