1. Introduction -- 2. Conceptualizing Civil Society for the Caribbean -- 3. Caribbean Political Culture, Governance and Participation -- 4. Civil Society Involvement in Regional Governance -- 5. Barbados: Civil Society Inclusion with Social Partnership -- 6. Trinidad and Tobago: Shifting Times, Shifting Governments, Shifting Inclusion -- 7. Openness in Governance Spaces Across the Region -- 8. Conclusion: Prospects for the Caribbean Civil Society-Governance Dynamic.

This book offers a unique analysis of the participatory spaces available for civil society organisations (CSOs) in Caribbean governance. It reveals the myriad ways in which the region's CSOs have contributed to enriching Caribbean societies and to scaffolding Caribbean regionalism, and also uncovers that despite their contributions, Caribbean CSOs (and civil society more broadly) have found limited space for involvement in governance. The author peers into Caribbean state-civil society participatory dynamics using in-depth country case studies (Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago), mini-case studies and evaluations of the approaches to inclusion within the regional institutions of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) This novel contribution to the Caribbean civil society literature uses these assessments to make a case for regularising state-civil society collaborative practices to enhance the quality of democracy in the region. Kristina Hinds is Lecturer in Politics and International Relations at the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill, Barbados. She has published Caribbean scholarship on civil society, citizenship, gender, financial crisis and information and communications technologies.
