It explores the socio-political landscape of Grenada from 1979 to 1983, including the overthrow of Eric Gairy by the New JEWEL Movement and the eventual collapse of the People's Revolutionary Government. The book examines the international implications of the revolution, particularly its socialist orientation and its connections with Cuba and the Soviet bloc, which challenged U.S. influence in the Caribbean. It also delves into the roles of women, youth, and the media during the revolutionary period. The intended audience is scholars and students of Caribbean history and international relations.Generated by AI.GrenadaGrenadaGenerated by AIInternational relationsGenerated by AIGrenada.International relations972.9845Lewis Patsy1740806Williams Gary1825772Clegg Peter1825773MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911009282903321Grenada4393677UNINA02790nam 2200685 a 450 991096223190332120240514023927.0979-82-16-20461-91-283-23368-197866132336840-7391-6652-2(CKB)2550000000045460(EBL)753242(OCoLC)753480128(SSID)ssj0000535215(PQKBManifestationID)12183965(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000535215(PQKBWorkID)10521419(PQKB)10066675(SSID)ssj0000790491(PQKBManifestationID)12380584(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000790491(PQKBWorkID)10746939(PQKB)10249351(Au-PeEL)EBL753242(CaPaEBR)ebr10493717(CaONFJC)MIL323368(MiAaPQ)EBC753242(EXLCZ)99255000000004546020110519d2011 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrCommunication and the globalization of culture beyond tradition and borders /Shaheed Nick Mohammed1st ed.Lanham, Md.
