Globalization and Neoliberalism: The Caribbean Context: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Globalization and Neoliberalism: The Caribbean Context" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

How do recent trends toward globalization affect the Caribbean, a region whose suppliers, production, markets, and politics have been globalized for centuries? What is the status of neoliberal development policy in the Caribbean, where the rewards for belt tightening and economic opening have been slow in coming? How have Caribbean policymakers and citizens responded to and resisted the pressures to conform to the new rules of the global economy? By examining these questions through the lens of political economy, this volume explores the interaction among development, trade, foreign policy, the environment, tourism, gender relations, and migration. With its global implications, this book will be invaluable for students and scholars from all disciplines who are concerned with the impact of development and globalization.

Table of Contents

Acknowledgments

I would like to thank several people for providing crucial elements of this book project. Janice Glenn formatted and edited most chapters and most tables in the chapters, obtained some data for the project, and did copying, letters, and mailings. She also decoded my bad penmanship to make editorial changes to most chapters. Debbi White assisted me with making editorial changes to chapters, copying, and collating. Mark Killian helped put the tables in final format. He also made corrections to a chapter on diskette. Pam Martin took primary responsibility for the maps and tables that appear prior to chapter 1. Mike Walczak compiled a list of the place-names and the collected bibliography. Mike Hollingsworth of Indiana Universitys geography department produced map 1. Kevin Young kindly offered some guidance during the map production. Peter Claggett deftly compiled the index. For comments on chapter 1 I wish to thank Tony Bebbington, Jessica Byron, Raju Das, Alex Dupuy, Jeanne Hey, Cristbal Kay, Pam Martin, Beverley Mullings, Emilio Pantojas-Garca, Sarah Ratcliffe, and Bon Richardson. The result is my responsibility alone.

Finally I wish to thank Jeanne and Jackson for being tolerant and understanding of my late night absences while completing the book. I promise to work at keeping a more reasonable schedule in the future.

I close on a somber note. One contributing author, Aaron Segal, died 17 April 1997. A week later, I asked another Latin American studies scholar, Bud Kenworthy, if he had known Segal. Indeed he had. Twenty-five years before, when the two were on the political science faculty at Cornell, Aarons generosity shined through. When a personal tragedy occurred in Buds life, Aaron stepped forward to take over teaching his course on Latin American politics. Over his long career, Aaron was tenaciously devoted to Caribbean research and to the betterment of Caribbean people.
