Promotional Information

The Caribbean stands out in the popular imagination as a 'place without history', a place which has somehow eluded modernity. Haiti is envisioned as being trapped in an endless cycle of violence and instability. This work argues that the Carribean is, and has always been, deeply engaged with the wider world.

About the Author

Alejandra Bronfman is Associate Professor in the Department of History at the University of British Columbia. She has travelled extensively in the Caribbean, and is the author of Measures of Equality: Social Science, Citizenship and Race in Cuba, 1902-1940 (2004, University of North Carolina Press) in addition to several articles on Caribbean history.

Reviews

Alejandra Bronfman concisely and elegantly demonstrates the continued enmeshing of Caribbean nations and people with the world beyond the Caribbean Sea. This book provides a very useful introduction to the contemporary Caribbean.
