Multidimensional Threats and Regional Responses to Caribbean Security
Multidimensional Threats and Regional Responses to Caribbean Security
Description
Multidimensional Threats and Regional Responses to Caribbean Security assesses the prevalence and intensity of intersecting security threats such as transnational organized crime, pandemics, and climate change on the state of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). The interplay of these various threats can adversely affect small island developing states (SIDS). This book aims to expose the fault lines in Western-centric international relations, which neglects non-military issues, non-state actors, and other security issues affecting SIDS. This volume also explores the efficacy of security regionalism for SIDS, where multiple actors cooperate across different levels and pool sovereignty, resources, and capabilities within legitimate institutional structures in order to prepare for, prevent, and collectively respond to severe security threats. This book argues for a more inclusive global IR that considers the realities of the developing world and a reimagining of security regionalism among CARICOM SIDS.
