Equaliberty in the Dutch Caribbean is a compelling collection of debates, case studies, and ethnographies of belonging. It is a philosophical and cultural search for a political space of comfort between colonial dependence and autonomy. Focusing on the non-sovereign status of the Caribbean it opens up the possibility for articulating notions of freedom and liberty in the region. --Linden Lewis editor of Caribbean Sovereignty, Development, and Democracy in an Age of Globalization


With editors persuasively arguing for a revolutionary non-Western vision of non/sovereignty, this outstanding anthology offers an enlightening alternative look at questions of belonging, and equality and freedom (equaliberty). In case after case in the Dutch-Caribbean, contributors challenge Western-imposed notions of sovereignty and envision new political and socio-cultural futures, making significant contributions to Caribbean Studies and beyond. --Antonio Sotomayor author of The Sovereign Colony: Olympic Sport, National Identity, and International Politics in Puerto Rico Equaliberty in the Dutch Caribbean is a compelling collection of debates, case studies, and ethnographies of belonging.
