This book examines the democratic ideas of Michael Manley, Jamaican
prime minister from 1972 to 1980, and again from 1989 to 1992,
during his government in the 1970s. Manley wrote three books during
or about that period, The Politics of Change, A Voice at the
Workplace, and Jamaica: Struggle in the Periphery. The first two
laid out his policy ideas regarding egalitarian democratic change
and economic democracy, and the third reprised those ideas and
assessed their implementation and the obstacles they faced during
the eight and a half years Manley served as prime minister. While
Manley was seen as a socialist firebrand, a close examination of
his ideas reveals a democratic nationalist whose motivation was
love of country and a desire to promote national self-confidence
and egalitarianism within the framework of liberal democracy and a
reformed capitalism.
