Sommario/riassunto |
|
This is an international history of Anglo-American-Caribbean relations, including the role of the African diaspora, during the long decolonization of the British Caribbean. The author explains why a policy of American restraint was exercised despite the long association of West Indians with black radicalism in the US. |
