This book is committed to the issues related to social justice in
the Caribbean, and seeks to increase dialogue among practitioners,
unions, labor activists, academics, policy-makers and other
individuals from across the social sciences and humanities. It is
purposely multidisciplinary in orientation, intending to cover
issues related to work, workers, labor, and related topics, as well
as social, organizational and institutional aspects of work and
industrial relations. It aims to set the tone for discourse on a
wide range of issues related to the future of work and sustainable
Caribbean development, social justice, industrial relations,
governance systems, social protection, social dialogue,
cooperatives and community empowerment, the future of education,
migration and security, among others, nationally, and regionally.
This work represents contemporary scholarly contributions from
researchers presenting original and innovative research that
contribute to the theory, practice and public policy dimensions of
work, migration, labor, industrial relations, and related issues.
As the Caribbean and Latin America confront the significant socio-
economic and political challenges of the twenty- first century, the
contributors to this book present a timely and relevant assessment
of these issues, from a fresh small-states perspective. The
collection of articles by academics and practitioners in
international relations offer practical recommendations for greater
collaboration among the states in areas related to migration,
cooperation among states in the Guiana Shield, greater interaction
between Cuba and the wider Caribbean, the impact of transnational
crime, and human safety and security, among others. This book is
geared to attract a wide audience, ranging from scholars,
practitioners and students of the social security sciences
especially in political science, international relations and
sociology, and will also be valuable to the wider audience with
interest in the contemporary issues confronting Caribbean and Latin
American states.
