Antigua and Barbuda is a Caribbean twin island country located in the northeastern region of the Lesser Antilles. It is composed of two major islands, Antigua and Barbuda, along with smaller islands such as Great Bird, Green, Guinea, Long, Maiden, Prickly Pear, York Islands, and more. Antigua and Barbuda has a population of approximately 100,000 people with the majority living on the island of Antigua. The official language is English and the currency is the Eastern Caribbean dollar. Tourism is the main economic driver for the country, with its beautiful beaches, cultural attractions, and abundant marine life drawing thousands of visitors each year. The capital city of Antigua and Barbuda is St. John's, which is located on the island of Antigua. Other notable towns on the islands include All Saints, Old Road, Bolands, and Parham. The country has a rich history, having been inhabited by indigenous peoples before being colonized by Europeans. It gained independence from Britain in 1981 and is now a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.

Book Description
This comprehensive work on security in the English-speaking Caribbean, offers a wealth of information about the history, politics, economics and geography of the entire region. The author examines security problems in the region as a geopolitical unit, not on a selective case-study basis, as is usually done. He assesses Caribbean security within a theoretical framework where four factors are critical: perceptions of the political elites; capabilities of the states; the geopolitics of the area; and the ideological orientations of the parties in power. Political and economic issues are judged to be as relevant to security as military factors. The author identifies safeguards which countries in the region may take in the coming decade.
