- Summary:
- Moving from smaller institutional spaces and personal identities outwards to consider the nation and the diaspora, this volume explores some interesting questions about the concept of "a nation" and its global context, particularly around questions of decoloniality. Additionally incorporates themes of gender and sexuality. Reviewers have noted positively on the thorough geographical span of the Caribbean geographically. From Tom Selwyn: "It is a very important contribution to cultural and development studies and other fields - and will, without doubt, find its way to teaching and research bibliographies.".
