Ideology and Caribbean Integration

"Thoroughly reviews regional integration efforts by Caribbean nations. Analyzes Caribbean Free Trade Association (CARIFTA) and Caribbean Community (CARICOM), and points out their weaknesses. Argues for the need for a regional ideology, including a pan-national identity, agreed-upon explanations for causes of shared past problems and ways to solve them, and consensus on building successful regional integration"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
