New review of Globalizing the Caribbean

A Cambridge University Press journal "The Americas" has published a review of my recent book. It can be read here

My only disagreements with the review is that (1) it does not mention the key role that US power plays in the region, which the book discusses at length, and (2) the last sentence in the second to last paragraph claims the book does not include a discussion on movements from below in the region. While that is not the focus of the book, the book includes discussion on a number of labor struggles, as well as social and political movements that have occurred throughout the region.  Future works will have to look into this in more depth, and in relation to the political economic restructuring taking place.
