The West Indian Commission Papers
The West Indian Commission papers represent the first in-depth enquiry commissioned by independent nations to examine the impact of a rapidly changing global environment on living conditions in small island developing states. Established in July 1989 as an independent body by the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), the Commission was mandated to undertake consultations with Caribbean people on issues pertaining to social, cultural and economic development. The collection contains transcripts of over 350 written submissions, several commissioned studies, special reports and publications.
