"This book provides an in-depth analysis of the role of regional integration in the contemporary Caribbean, challenging the value of the neoliberal ideology that permeates regionalism discourse. The book asks what value neoliberal regionalism holds for the Caribbean, when its economic goals of efficiency and competitiveness serve to actively marginalize small states within the global community. Presenting an alternative framework for assessing success, the book investigates how the Caribbean community (CARICOM) can confront new challenges and perform a more developmental function, centring economic transformation and a more democratic process. The book also explores long-standing challenges with implementing regional decisions at the national level and the absence of avenues for citizens to influence the direction of the integration movement. It explores these themes against the backdrop of the global pandemic and the climate crisis which underscore the fragility of Caribbean economies, their high levels of indebtedness, weak social security systems, and their marginality, Bringing together decades of research from one of the world's foremost scholars on the subject, this book will be essential reading for researchers of the Caribbean specifically, and for those with an interest in regionalism more generally, across the fields of political economy, international relations, history, geography, economics and global development."

The banana industry in the four Wind-ward Islands, Dominica, Grenada, St. Lucia and St. Vincent, is the focus of a comprehensive restructuring process. This process is being fuelled by the fears shared by these islands' governments and organizations involved in the production, marketing and selling of Windward Islands' bananas on the European market, that the industry, as it is currently organized, is not competitive. The issue of competitiveness arises because in the first place the preferential access to the EU market which they currently enjoy is likely to end in the year 2002 and, even before then, key aspects of the EU's banana protocol were ruled by the WTO Panel and Appellate Body in September 1997, to be in contravention of WTO rules.

This article looks at the controversy over the European Union's New Banana Regime from the perspective of the small countries of the Windward Islands whose economy the industry dominates. It discusses their attempts to increase the industry's competitiveness & the implications this has had for its stability & possible survival. It is particularly interested in the dynamic interplay between the local & international environment, especially in relation to the effect of price fluctuations, arguing that efforts to increase competitiveness have been compromised by lower market prices. It concludes that, rather than increasing the industry's viability, certain elements of the restructuring exercise have aggravated fissures in the local industry that potentially threaten its survival, even in advance of a more open market.

Este articulo examina el intento realizado entre 1986 y 1992 por forjar una union politica entre los estados miembros de la Organizacion de Estados del Caribe Oriental (OECO) - Antigua, San Cristobal/Nieves, Montserrat, Granada, Dominica, Santa Lucia y San Vicente. Se analiza aqui un aspecto particular de la iniciativa, como fue el proceso por medio del cual los gobiernos promotores de la iniciativa intentaron obtener el apoyo publico para la propuesta de union. Se concluye que el proceso de integracion tendra mayores probabilidades de tomar el rumbo de una confederacion de estados politicamente independientes, que como una union politica que requiere la abrogacion de la soberania.
