Investigating the unique EU-CARICOM legal relationship, this book explores globalisation, which shapes inter-regional organisations individually and determines their relationship. It evaluates how EU-CARICOM relations have fostered certain development measures, reflecting on the Caribbean states that are active in the framework.
