Search HISTORY OF THE CARIBBEAN COMMUNITY The end of the Federation meant the beginning of more serious efforts on the part of the political leaders in the Caribbean to strengthen the ties between the islands and mainland by providing for the continuance and strengthening of the areas of cooperation that existed during the Federation. To this end in mid-1962 a Common Services Conference was called to take decisions on these services, the major ones among them being the University of the West Indies (UWI), founded in 1948 and the Regional Shipping Services set up during the Federation to control the operation of the two ships donated in 1962 by the government of Canada - the Federal Palm and the Federal Maple. The Caribbean Meteorological Service was established one year after, in 1963 and along with the UWI and the Regional Shipping Service, represented the heart of Caribbean cooperation directly after the end of the Federation.

The Cayman Islands: Britain's Maverick Caribbean Colony
Howard A. Fergus
Introduction
Colony of a Colony
The Cayman Islands were decidedly not a sugar colony and the usual process of the advent of a small advanced party of white settlers followed by an influx of African slave hands to handmaid a sugar industry did not apply. It was peopled by an assortment of settlers consisting of deserters from the 1655 Penn and Venables Jamaican expedition, buccaneers and other British adventurers who began arriving in 1658 (Black, 1965). It was atypical in its early occupations of turtle fishing and boat building and it experienced no 'sugar revolution' (Parry and Sherlock, 1956: 63). The flat, coralline, rock-strewn soil was not ideal for any kind of agriculture. The usefulness of Cayman was confined to the provision of turtle-meat for hungry ships. In some measure, the Cayman Islands share the dubious distinction of being a colony of a colony with Anguilla and the Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI). But it was Cayman that spent the longest time under the legislative suzereignty of another colony. The British parliament placed them under the legislative authority of Jamaica in 1863, while this took place ten years later in the case of TCI; and both received their release about the same time. In fact from its cession to Britain in 1670, the Caymans remained under Jamaican rule formally or informally until 1962. As a result of its subordinate relationship to Jamaica, the Cayman Islands have never experienced the quality of representative government which obtained in the other colonies, flawed as it was. From about 1750 they seemed to have had a self-styled Governor who derived his authority from a Justice's commission from Jamaica. He exercised, legislative and judicial authority and was also commander-in-chief (Wrong, 1923). His power was not as impressive as it sounds and he was certainly not omnipotent, for persons still had to travel to Jamaica for something as mundane as marrying. From 1831, that is, even before their formal attachment to Jamaica, the first Legislative Assembly was established in the Cayman Islands. The islands were placed under the administration of a Commissioner with the assistance of 15 justices, and 27 vestrymen elected by male universal suffrage. A law of 1927 restricted the franchise to males between the ages of 16 and 60.

Constitutional Modernisation in Montserrat and the Cayman Islands: Taking the British Seriously?
Howard A. Fergus
Introduction
Power is essentially about economic control, arguably, and therefore whether the Governor or an elected minister commands the international finance portfolio, for instance, becomes an important issue in the context of constitutional advancement. This is particularly so because of HMG's insistence on colonial subordination to its international obligations for combating financial fraud and money laundering (FCO, 1999). This is a sensitive issue especially in Montserrat where The Montserrat Constitution Order 1989 snatched international financial services from the CM's portfolio and assigned it to the Governor. This qualification is a reaction in part to the decriminalisaton of homosexuality imposed on the BOTs by the UK government. From differing perspectives both territories have a keen interest in individual rights. While the citizens of these territories generally desire some devolution of the Governor's authority on to the elected government (rather moreso in Montserrat) consonant with greater democratisation, they are also conscious of the need for checks and balances on the government. It may not be an exaggeration to say that the relative disinterest in independence stems partly from lack of trust in local politicians, which can also be interpreted as a lack of self-confidence. The irony is that this attitude feeds the self-same colonialism which may have fostered the self-doubt in the first place. There is thus an ambivalence about constitutional modernisation in the BOTs in the region.

General History of the Caribbean Volume VI: Methodology and Historiography of the Caribbean Summary Volume VI of the General History of the Caribbean looks at the ways historians have written the history of the region depending upon their methods of interpretation and differing styles of communicating their findings. The linguistic diversity of the region would require the ideal historian to be proficient in all its languages. However, since in general proficiency is limited to two or three languages at most, the inability of the historian to identify and interrogate relevant material scattered in a variety of depositories in the Caribbean, the US, Europe, Africa, India and China has affected the ways in which the history of the region has been written.

THE ROLE OF MUSEUMS AND HERITAGE INSTITUTIONS IN THE PROMOTION AND PRESERVATION OF THE CULTURAL PATRIMONY INTRODUCTION There are few regions of the world where migration has become such an integral part of people's existence as the Caribbean. Forced, indentured, and later voluntary migration has been the essence of Caribbean history for the past 500 years. Examining the processes of migration, colonization, exile, assimilation, evaluation, destruction and reconstruction of identity must all be part and parcel of the work of Caribbean museums today. Few institutions however, are willing to exhibit the difficult aspects of the Caribbean past. Fewer still wrestle effectively with issues of violence, riots, and the devastating effects of generations of poverty and discrimination. I am not arguing that museums focus only on the harsh and unpleasant, or depict people solely as victims of history. Nevertheless, Caribbean museums must do better job of mirroring the willingness of academic scholarship to examine the complexities and ambiguities of Caribbean life. However this will require a three way partnership between the public, the museum and the historian, a partnership which has not fully developed in most Caribbean countries, although more opportunities now exist than in the past.

The status of the dry forests and degree of disturbance and alteration are directly related to human population size on each of the three islands. Clearing of natural woodland for roads, housing, tourism, and agriculture continue to be the most significant pressures on the dry forests of this ecoregion.
