Jamaica's Foreign Policy
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-58900-3 (ISBN)
In the years since Independence in 1962, Jamaica's foreign policy has reflected
the flux and reflux of international affairs. There has been continuity in the
midst of change; and while the country has sought to deepen its traditional
friendships and widen its network of allies, it has also experienced occasions of
externally determined crisis and major disagreement both within the
Caribbean and in the wider world. Bearing in mind the profound changes which
have taken place in the international sphere since independence, this book
examines some of the main initiatives and responses which have characterised
Jamaican foreign policy over the last sixty years.
