  • Caribbean in a Global World Ronald Sanders 1 14 Th May 2009 UNESCO Sponsored Caribbean Media Conference in Grenada (Grand Anse)
    Caribbean in a Global World Ronald Sanders 1 14 th May 2009 UNESCO Sponsored Caribbean Media Conference in Grenada (Grand Anse) I have been asked to speak on the Caribbean in a Global World: A Media Perspective. There is no monolithic Caribbean, and no structure under which all of the Caribbean operates. The area is made-up of the 15 member-states of the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM); an assortment of British, Dutch, French and US overseas territories with no authority in international relations, and the sovereign countries – the Dominican Republic and Cuba. CARICOM is the closest thing to an over-arching structure in the region. As is well known, it was created for the specific purpose of integrating the people and economies of countries which were colonies of the United Kingdom as they became independent states and were required to participate in global affairs. While much was made of the inter-regional trade dimension of CARICOM, an important dimension was – and remains - the greater strength it could bring to its member states if they act collectively in global affairs. In other words, if they pool their individual sovereignty in their collective interest. Indeed, CARICOM countries have fared far better in their dealings in international affairs when they have acted together than when they try to act individually. While it is true that, occasionally, individual CARICOM countries have enjoyed successes in achieving goals in the global community, such successes have been exceptions that should not be mistaken for the rule. The reality is that throughout history – and more so today – small states are marginalized in global decision-making.
