“Ideology, Regionalism, and Society in Caribbean History is seminal in its multi-polar approach to understanding the historical, political and social dynamics that shape a region. … Editors Shane J. Pantin and Jerome Teelucksingh have presented an eclectic array of themes on the Caribbean ethos – a must read for students and policy makers. No doubt, they invite additional discourse and research toward viable integration and self-determination.” (Dr. Glenville Ashby, Kaieteur News, kaieteurnewsonline.com, October, 2017)
