Book Synopsis The Social Origins of Democratic Socialism in Jamaica by : Nelson W. Keith

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1974, following a successful parliamentary election, Michael Manley and his People's National Party took Jamaica onto a self-proclaimed democratic socialist path. The project failed even prior to the subsequent electoral defeat of the PNP in 1980. This short-lived experiment has evoked considerable interest among development scholars. In this book, Nelson Keith and Novella Keith challenge current interpretations of Jamaican events and develop an alternative theoretical model: national popularism. Without dismissing the negative machinations by the United States, internal mismanagement, and a variety of other problems, the authors argue that the events in question speak less of a failure of socialism than of the fragility of a national class alliance that coalesced temporarily, amidst a crisis, around a "new" politics. While incorporating radical impulses "from below" as well as socialist policies, the new politics was rooted in liberal democratic strains that had evolved historically in ways that could accommodate these impulses. The Manley project can thus be better understood as the "management" of peripheral capitalism rather than a budding socialism, for which there were few supports in the society. In their rich historical analysis of race and class in Jamaica, the authors trace the emergence and demise of progressive "alternative paths to development" in the Third World. Their approach provides a model for class analysis that avoids over-reliance on economic factors, gives socio-historical elements their full due, and contributes to a reassessment of significant events in Jamaican history. The authors' conceptual model allows important insights to surface that are obscured in the discourse on "socialism and its failure." There was, in particular real cultural and ideological change in Jamaica in the 1970s, as the Rastafarian worldview made inroads into an erstwhile neo-colonial culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cheryl King's study of Michael Manley's leadership of Jamaica in the 1970's is a well-written and informative study of one of Jamaica's most important post-independence political figures. Ms. King properly starts the study within the historical setting and limitations of Jamaica's colonial experience. The study then moves on to Manley's social democratic thinking and political principles, and his administration's less than successful efforts to work within the powerful chaotic international environment of the 1970's. Readers will encounter an engaging and wide ranging work of consequence. William B. Messmer, Ph.D., Drew University

Book Synopsis Democratic Political Tragedy in the Postcolony by : Greg A. Graham
Download or read book Democratic Political Tragedy in the Postcolony written by Greg A. Graham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A ground-breaking work in Africana political thought that links the plight of progressive political endeavors in Africa with those in the Diaspora and beyond, Democratic Tragedy in the Postcolony engages with two of the defining political sagas of the postcolonial era. The book presents Michael Manley of Jamaica and Nelson Mandela of South Africa as tragic political leaders at the helm of popular democratic projects that run aground in the face of the constraints that a subordinate position in the global economy presents for such endeavors. Jamaica’s experiment with democratic socialism as an alternative path to development at the height of the cold war is considered alongside post-Apartheid South Africa’s search for a development model consistent with the demand for civic empowerment and equitable distribution of social goods in the aftermath of Apartheid. Democratic Political Tragedy in the Postcolony theorizes the defining tragic impasse and the telling vacillations by which the postcolonies in question are brought to the neoliberal catastrophes that currently prevail.
Book Synopsis Dependency and Socialism in the Modern Caribbean by : Euclid A. Rose
Download or read book Dependency and Socialism in the Modern Caribbean written by Euclid A. Rose and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three small economies that are the subject of this study were established as artificial colonial societies and have remained extremely vulnerable to the international capitalists system, a situation that has led to homegrown efforts to assert methods of development not associated with capitalism. After placing the developmental realities of the three countries in the general context of the Caribbean region and the global capitalist system, Rose (Siena College) critically examines the attempts of the three countries' experiments with socialism, begun in the 1970s. She reserves greater criticism for the United States as she turns her attention to U.S. government efforts to destabilize the countries in an effort to prevent the emerging of any socialist alternatives in an area it viewed as part of its sphere of influence.

Book Synopsis Michael Manley and Jamaican Democracy, 1972–1980 by : F. S. J. Ledgister
Download or read book Michael Manley and Jamaican Democracy, 1972–1980 written by F. S. J. Ledgister and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the democratic ideas of Michael Manley, Jamaican prime minister from 1972 to 1980, and again from 1989 to 1992, during his government in the 1970s. Manley wrote three books during or about that period, The Politics of Change, A Voice at the Workplace, and Jamaica: Struggle in the Periphery. The first two laid out his policy ideas regarding egalitarian democratic change and economic democracy, and the third reprised those ideas and assessed their implementation and the obstacles they faced during the eight and a half years Manley served as prime minister. While Manley was seen as a socialist firebrand, a close examination of his ideas reveals a democratic nationalist whose motivation was love of country and a desire to promote national self-confidence and egalitarianism within the framework of liberal democracy and a reformed capitalism.
