CARICOM: GOOD OFFICES, GOOD NEIGHBOURS

More about the book

The book explores the dynamics within CARICOM, a coalition of 15 Member States, as they navigate the Venezuelan political crisis. It examines the differing diplomatic stances among these states since 2018, using realism and constructivism to analyze the motivations behind their positions. While some members advocate for a unified CARICOM response, others prioritize individual interests, impacting the organization's collective influence. The study highlights CARICOM's role in fostering Caribbean identity and trade partnerships, alongside the rational self-interests of its member states.
