Statehood À La Carte in the Caribbean and the Pacific

Secession, Regionalism, and Postcolonial Politics

Beschreibung

This book explains how leaders in the Caribbean and Pacific regions balance the autonomy-viability dilemma of postcolonial statehood by practising statehood à la carte. Jack Corbett shows that this approach is a pragmatic response to the contradictions inherent to coloniality.
