Democracy in the Caribbean by Jorge I Domínguez
Regional experts have long noted the surprising rate of democratization in the Caribbean. Ten out of the twelve English-speaking Caribbean island-states -- among a total of sixteen independent Caribbean nations -- have maintained relatively stable democracies since independence, a better rate of success than that of Latin America. In Democracy In The Caribbean sixteen Caribbean area specialists offer both global and regional perspectives in an effort to explain why this is so.
Democracy in the Caribbean is a collection of essays on the region's liberal democratic traditions and experiencesIt highlights their strengths and weaknesses as members of the inter-American geopolitical and security system... The central question: Why has liberal democracy flourished in the Caribbean? is clearly and persuasively presented. International Affairs
