The idea that the Caribbean could be developing downward in wealth, function and sovereignty has become a recurrent theme in both academic and popular literature. While not glossing over the problems faced by the region, the papers in the volume do not present a hyper-pessimistic picture of Caribbean development and the region's future prospects. Some of the contributors seek to broadly outline and analyze the range and complexity of the challenge to sovereignty and public policy autonomy, others focus on issues relating to small country size, gender and ethnic tensions, constitutional reform and regional integration. But what gives the collection a particular dynamism is the way in which the authors have challenged the terrain of political possibility held for small periphal societies.Barrow-Giles, Cynthia is the author of 'Living at the Borderlines : Issues in Caribbean Sovereignty and Development', published 2003 under ISBN 9780972935890 and ISBN 0972935894.
