Riassunto

Using the context of U.S. Caribbean policy and against the backdrop of the West India Regiment, Phillips, in his book, examines the militaries of select British dependent territories, Bermuda and Montserrat, and defence forces in ten independent countries, former Anglo Caribbean colonies. These countries are Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, St. Kitts and Nevis, and Trinidad and Tobago. His thematic approach describes the origin, structure, recruitment, training, and roles of the defence forces, with Grenada given extensive treatment.



The writer puts particular emphasis on the role of women in the armed forces and takes a critical look at the Regional Security System. The final chapter summarizes major themes and makes projections about the status of the military.



The field of military studies in the Caribbean as an area of academic specialization is at best underdeveloped. Hence, this book sheds light on this often-overlooked aspect of research.
