Small island economies : structure and performance in the English-speaking Caribbean since 1970

Summary:	Conscious economic management became a feature of English-speaking Caribbean countries in the late 1960s, just as the world economy moved from a phase of relative stability into a period of recurring crisis and uncertainty.

Chapter 1 of the study introduces the Caribbean economies, describing what they produce, their trading patterns, their levels of development and selected institutional features. Chapter 2 discusses commodity price trends, financial market changes and other aspects of the world environment as they affected the Caribbean.

The final chapter is the overall assessment.  Read more...
