Tennyson Joseph provides a comprehensive analysis of the relevance of C.L.R. James’s political thought to twenty-first-century Caribbean politics. He clarifies, explains and justifies James's method, and applies his ideas to concrete political developments occurring in the twenty-first century Caribbean in its interconnection with the rest of the world. The work offers a unique treatment of James in three distinctive ways: firstly, in its scope and specific focus on the application of the thought of James to the post-Soviet Union, post-Cold War era of Caribbean politics; secondly concerning discussing the possibilities for radical, anti-systemic possibilities in the Caribbean in the early twenty-first century; and thirdly, in the employment of James’s thought and method as an explanatory tool for understanding those contemporary issues. The book brings the ideas of C.L.R. James to a new generation of Caribbean and global readers and is a useful resource to all students, teachers, and activists interested in Caribbean politics, political ideas, and radical political theory.
