About This Item
Monthly Review Press, New York, NY, U.S.A., 1988.. Very Good/Unknown. Octavo, softcover, a hint of edgewear else near fine in black pictorial wraps. Foreign interests have dominated the economic development of the Caribbean since the arrival of Europeans in the 1500's. From plantations and slavery to exploitation of oil and bauxite, the history of the Caribbean people is one of dependency and impoverishment. Slaves, indentured laborers, peasants and workers, unemployed--subjection to external control has meant hardship and social injustice. 396 pp. including index.
