Transitions in Caribbean Law: Law-Making, Constitutionalism and the Convergence of National and International Law

Transitions in Caribbean Law: Law-Making, Constitutionalism and the Convergence of National and International Law traces Caribbean legal thought and its development across many areas of law. Issues of administrative, constitutional, corporate and commercial, international, and labour law are explored in the context of the analyses of the Privy Council, the transnational dimensions of law and within the purview of the intrusive role of international law in domestic law. Edited by David S. Berry and Tracy Robinson, Transitions in Caribbean Law is the first legal collection to truly critique the work of the Caribbean Court of Justice alongside that of the Privy Council. Through the examination of well known Caribbean cases, the contributors dispel the myth that Caribbean law is flawed and posit other legal reasoning that reconcile the foundation on which Caribbean Law is based with the unique needs and realities of the Caribbean.
