Book excerpt: The Caribbean Basin Initiative, the most recent of a long list of United States policy initiatives in Latin America and the Caribbean, continues to intrigue readers. This study is an analysis of United States Foreign Policy in the Caribbean and Central America in general, and Jamaica in particular with special emphasis on the Caribbean Basin Initiative. The study focuses on answering a number of important questions regarding the impact of the CBI on the economic and socio-political conditions of the Island-Nation brought on earlier by the turbulent US/Jamaica relations of the Michael Manley administration, 1972-1980.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The election of Ronald Reagan as President of the United States in November 1980 opened a new chapter in international relations; U.S. foreign policy shifted from an alliance-based, consensual approach to one based on a more overt use of its immense economic and, above all, military power. This policy entailed some stark choices for the U.S.A.’s allies and neighbours and, above all, for the small countries of Central America and the Caribbean. This revealing book tells the story of the Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI), through which the new assertion of U.S. hegemony in the region was expressed. The CBI entitled “friendly” countries of the region (i.e., excluding Cuba, pre-invasion Grenada and Nicaragua) to military and economic aid plus incentives, modelled on the so-called “Puerto Rican miracle,” so as to reorient their trade towards the U.S.A. The authors carefully compare the claims made for the CBI with its underlying political objectives and examine its actual impact on regional development through detailed case studies of the Eastern Caribbean and Trinidad. Also examined are the impact of the CBI on Caribbean regional integration and the responses of Canada and Britain, the two other major countries with long-standing political and economic interests in the Caribbean. What emerges from this investigation is the way the CBI reflects the U.S.A.’s historic quest for regional dominance, rather than a new era in Caribbean development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapter one provides a study of Jamaica during the 1970's. The outcome of this research and the associated modeling reveals that Prime Minister Manley's approach to government had some dire consequences. Chapter two provides a current view of the Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI) along with some computer simulations which serve as a basis for future economic forecasts. The results of this research suggest several possible courses of action for the present government under Prime Minister Seaga. Fortunately, under Jamaica's present leadership, any policy which serves to strengthen the country economically, will also enhance local U.S. security interest. Chapter three discusses various aspects of Jamaican history and culture to investigate the likelihood that, if given the optimum economic recovery program, it could be successfully implemented. Finally, chapter four addresses some overall conclusions about Jamaica's economic future, the prospects of which appear hopeful under America's current Caribbean Basin Initiative. Keywords: Caribbean Basin Initiative; Culture; Economic modeling; Simulation. (Author).
