Non-sovereign futures : French Caribbean politics in the wake of disenchantment
Yarimar Bonilla (Author)
As an overseas department of France, Guadeloupe is one of a handful of non-independent societies in the Caribbean that seem like political exceptions - or even paradoxes - in our current postcolonial era. In this book, the author looks at Guadeloupean labor activism in order to challenge contemporary notions of freedom, sovereignty, nationalism, and revolution - recasting Guadeloupe not as a problematically non-sovereign site but as a place that can unsettle how we think of sovereignty itself
