| Summary: | "This book offers a multifaced understanding of how the 9/11 attacks and the subsequent War on Terror affected the Caribbean. The volume dives deeper into how the 9/11 attacks and the subsequent War on Terror impacted the region's tourism industry, anti-terrorism legislation, and the banking/financial and immigration system. The book analyses the US-led War on Terror through a broader conceptual lens, i.e., using two Schmittian perspectives: that of the friend-enemy and of the sovereign in times of exception. Using this broader conceptual framework offers an opportunity for a methodological interpretation of Bush's counter-terrorism policy to give a novel conceptual understanding of the War on Terror in relation to the Caribbean. Thus, the book offers a nuanced and novel perspective on the subject matter. This book will be of much interest to students of terrorism, Caribbean studies, political theory and International Relations"-- Provided by publisher |
