Produktbeschreibung

The Routledge Handbook of Caribbean Studies provides a critical collection of world-class scholarship about this fascinating, diverse and dynamic region.

Bringing together new and established voices on the Anglophone, Francophone, Spanish-speaking and Dutch-speaking Caribbean, the handbook explores the cultural and historical shapes and reach of the region, as well as the environmental, climatic and (geo)political challenges that it faces in the 21st century. Each of its four parts - Environment, (Geo)politics, History and Culture - explores the region's conceptual and material entanglements and disentanglements, its transnational and transregional connections and disconnections, and its historical wakes and posts.

The Routledge Handbook of Caribbean Studies is essential reading for all who want to know more about this much-studied but often misrepresented and misunderstood region.

Autorenporträt

Patricia Noxolo's research brings together the study of international culture and in/security, and uses postcolonial, discursive and literary approaches to explore the spatialities of a range of Caribbean and British cultural practices. She was awarded the 2021 Royal Geographical Society (RGS) Murchison Award and is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. Pat has led two international teams exploring Caribbean in/securities and creativity, and is a co-lead of University of Birmingham's Stuart Hall Archive Project. She is a co-founder of the Fi Wi Road internships for Black Geography undergraduates. Pat is a committee member of the RACE group of the RGS, former chair of the Society for Caribbean Studies and former co-editor of Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers. Kevon Rhiney is an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography at Rutgers University - New Brunswick. His research investigates the development and justice implications of global environmental change in the Caribbean, specifically the ways socio-ecological shocks (including impacts from extreme weather events, market volatilities and crop epidemics) are unevenly experienced and negotiated by historically marginalized communities. Ronald Cummings is an Associate Professor of Black Studies and African Diaspora Literatures in the Department of English and Cultural Studies at McMaster University in Canada. He is the editor of several volumes including Caribbean Literatures in Transition 1970-2020 (co-edited with Alison Donnell). His co-edited volume Harriet's Legacies: Race, Historical Memory and Futures in Canada received the award for best edited collection from the Canadian Studies Network (CSN) in 2023. Professor Cummings is also a Research Associate with the Centre for the Study of Race, Gender and Class (RGC) at the University of Johannesburg.
