This interdisciplinary course of the study of the Caribbean will begin with examinations of what constitutes the Caribbean and an understanding of Caribbean space. We will then study its peoples, contact between Europeans and indigenous peoples, African enslavement, and resistance, Indian indentureship and other forced migrations. The course will explore a cross-section of leading thinkers and ideas while giving attention to identity, migration, and the creation of the Caribbean diaspora.
