Its primary focus throughout is on the complex counterpoint between race and ideology in the region. The initial theoretical prologue introduces and explains the concept of 'modern-conservative' societies, drawing on a balance of Marxian radical and Burkean conservative ideas. The chapters that follow represent some of the fundamental debates in Caribbean studies including topics such as Caribbean historical fundamentals, slave laws and subsequent race relations, and U.S. colonialism in Puerto Rico - each of which is dealt comparatively by treating the works of six celebrated Caribbean intellectual-polticians.
