When we hear of Jamaica or the Caribbean, we think of beautiful islands of paradise with sun, sea, and sand; Reggae Music, Cannabis, and irie people like Usain Bolt, People living out their best dreams, desires, and lives. However, this book analyzes this motif, given the historical and current economic and political situation in Jamaica, the Caribbean, and the Global South. In an attempt to escape the adverse realities of poverty, inequality, and injustice, the people of the global south find themselves in North Metropolises with very little agency and minimal change to their lives.... Moreover, the book critiques the work of nationalists to bring about political independence and equity within and among nations and peoples of the global south, the diaspora, and the US (McKenzie, Neoliberalism, xi - xvii). This is the Hardcover format of the book Neoliberalism. It is an interdisciplinary and Cosmopolitan approach to the Sociopolitical and economic understanding of the Caribbean and its diaspora. Yet It explores the realities of Jamaica and the Caribbean, challenging the idyllic image often associated with the region. It delves into the Caribbean's historical, economic, and political situations, particularly in the Global South. The author examines how individuals from the Global South seek better lives but often find themselves with limited agency and minimal opportunities for change in the metropolises of the Global North.
