Acknowledgments

Extract

It is always misleading to trace the origins of a book strictly from the point at which the formal writing process actually begins, for long before the writing commences there are ideas, experiences, questions, and influences that provide the primeval matter that shapes the content of the final product. This holds particularly strongly in the case of this book, given its genesis in questions that held my interest as a research student in the Caribbean and the United Kingdom long before the possibility of its publication had ever been contemplated.

In acknowledging the many people who have contributed to the appearance of this book, I must begin with the persons who nurtured the tender saplings of my earliest ideas during my days of postgraduate study. In this regard, special mention must be made of George Belle, dean of the Faculty of the Social Sciences at the University of the West Indies (UWI) in Barbados, who first exposed me to the implications of globalization for the sustainability of the antisystemic responses that had shaped the nationalist stances of Caribbean states since the decade of the 1970s. Indeed, too, it was George Belle who had first introduced to me the notion of “recolonization” as an analytical category for capturing what was novel in globalization, beyond the previous concerns of “neocolonialism.” In a direct sense it is the spirit of that early instruction that has shaped the ideas and concerns of this book.
