IGPLAC Congratulates Dr. Emanuel Quashie on Publication of His Recent Book: The War on Terror and the Caribbean: Schmittian Perspectives
The Institute of Governance and Politics proudly congratulates Dr. Emanuel Quashie on the release of his most recent work, “The War on Terror and the Caribbean: Schmittian Perspectives,” which is published by Routledge, one of the world’s top five academic publishers. This ground-breaking work digs into the history of terrorism in the Caribbean, investigating the intricate intersections of global terrorism inside the area and analysing the impact of the worldwide War on Terror via a Schmittian theoretical lens.
Dr. Quashie, a product of the education revolution and lecturer at the University of the West Indies Mona Campus, is a famous scholar in International Relations who inspires many young people around the Caribbean. His thought-provoking study provides new perspectives on both the historical backdrop of terrorism in the Caribbean and the broader implications of global terrorism operations for the region.
In “The War on Terror and the Caribbean”, Dr. Quashie raises crucial issues, such as the implementation of Citizenship by Investment (CBI) initiatives and its security implications to the extent where Elvin Nimrod, Grenada’s then-Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, suspended the Economic Citizenship Program in 2001 due to worries that terrorists could use Grenadian passports for international terrorism. This issue has indeed caused a high level of discourse among governments and institutions across the region and the globe
The IGPLAC is honoured to celebrate Dr Quashie’s continued academic excellence and his valuable contributions to the field of international relations. His work sheds new light on the complexities of terrorism, urging readers to rethink global power dynamics and regional security challenges in the Caribbean.
