Description

This book argues that the Caribbean frontier, regularly assumed to have been eclipsed after colonial conquest, remains a powerful but unrecognized component of Caribbean island culture. Combining analytical and creative genres of writing, it explores historical and up to date patterns of frontier change through a case look at of the little-known Eastern Caribbean multi-island state of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Brand new frontier traits are situated within the wandering woodcutter, the squatter on government land and the mountainside ganja grower. However the frontier may be identified as a part of global production that has shaped island tourism, the financial sector and patterns of migration.
