Synopsis
This book examines today's vibrant and creative trans-Atlantic Caribbean community. Chapters explore questions of definition and theory, the common Atlantic heritage and fate, social and economic contexts of Caribbean transnationality, Africa, the USA and the Caribbean in popular discourses in Britain, transnationality of families and the propensity for Caribbean-born and their offspring to return to the Caribbean from the mother country. Caribbean Transnational Experience concludes with a discussion about possible future directions of what is increasingly being described as the Caribbean Diaspora.
