Statehood à la carte in the Caribbean and the Pacific : secession, regionalism, and postcolonial politics /

This book explains how leaders in the Caribbean and Pacific regions balance the autonomy-viability dilemma of postcolonial statehood by practising statehood à la carte. Jack Corbett shows that this approach is a pragmatic response to the contradictions inherent to coloniality.
