Global Displacements

The Making of Uneven Development in the Caribbean

Marion Werner

Science / Earth Sciences / Geography

Challenging the main ways we debate globalization, Global Displacements reveals how uneven geographies of capitalist development shape—and are shaped by—the aspirations and everyday struggles of people in the global South.

  • Makes an original contribution to the study of globalization by bringing together critical development and feminist theoretical approaches
  • Opens up new avenues for the analysis of global production as a long-term development strategy
  • Contributes novel theoretical insights drawn from the everyday experiences of disinvestment and precarious work on people’s lives and their communities
  • Represents the first analysis of increasing uneven development among countries in the Caribbean
  • Calls for more rigorous studies of long accepted notions of the geographies of inequality and poverty in the global South
Marion Werner is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography at the University at Buffalo, SUNY. Her research lies at the intersection of critical development studies, feminist theory, and political economy with a focus on Latin America and the Caribbean.
