520 |a Criminology, like many other disciplines in the social sciences, is characterized by high levels of ethnocentrism and Northern bias that generally excludes the production and transference of scholarship from the Global South and the Caribbean is not exempted from this ethnocentric and Northern bias. Once the centre of colonialism and power, Anglophone Caribbean countries are now located on the global margins. While the Caribbean possesses unique development challenges, for example, restricted diversification, limited resources, susceptibility to natural disasters, remoteness, and isolation, these challenges extend to knowledge production and transference. This is due to criminological thoughts in the region being coerced into seeking validation from the Global North, despite obvious differences in culture, legal traditions, crimes, and crime control. This need for Northern validation of Caribbean scholarship on criminology is not new and has always posed a challenge for the development of the discipline in the region and led to Ken (Pryce, Caribbean Issues 2:3–21, 1976) call for a Caribbean criminology in order to rectify the Northern bias by problematizing criminological knowledge production and incorporating marginalized perspectives from scholars in the Caribbean. Despite considerable advances in the field of criminology in the Caribbean since the start of the twenty-first century, Caribbean criminology is not as recognized when compared to North American and European criminology. As a result, the current chapter presents the state of criminology in the Caribbean and highlights major challenges that confront criminology in the region, for example, data collection, knowledge production, research, teaching, and theorizing. The author also discusses opportunities presented in Caribbean contexts as well as directions for the future of a Caribbean criminology.
