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.$7Generated by AI. 517 $aGrenada 606 $aGrenada$7Generated by AI 606 $aInternational relations$7Generated by AI 615 0$aGrenada. 615 0$aInternational relations 676 $a972.9845 700 $aLewis$b Patsy$01740806 701 $aWilliams$b Gary$01825772 701 $aClegg$b Peter$01825773 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911009282903321 996 $aGrenada$94393677 997 $aUNINA
