Caribbean Labor and Politics Having more in common than their deaths on the same day in 1997, the late Cheddi Jagan of Guyana and Michael Manley of Jamaica both represented a radical perspective in modern Caribbean politics. This volume brings together a variety of studies on the lives, works, and intellectual and practical contributions of these two political leaders.

Review:
The great advantage of this volume is that it is a critical assessment and appraisal of two of the Commonwealth Caribbean's most outstanding politicians in the second half of the twentieth century, Cheddi Jagan of Guyana and Michael Manley of Jamaica. Moreover, the contributions are by scholars and policy advisors who knew both men from the inside of the political process which they moulded. - Harry Goulbourne, London South Bank University
