It is a philosophical and cultural search for a political space of comfort between colonial dependence and autonomy. Focusing on the non-sovereign status of the Caribbean it opens up the possibility for articulating notions of freedom and liberty in the region.\"\u003c\/div\u003e - Linden Lewis (editor of Caribbean Sovereignty, Development, and Democracy in an Age of Globalization) \u003cdiv\u003e\"With editors persuasively arguing for a revolutionary non-Western vision of non\/sovereignty, this outstanding anthology offers an enlightening alternative look at questions of belonging, and equality and freedom (equaliberty). In case after case in the Dutch-Caribbean, contributors challenge Western-imposed notions of sovereignty and envision new political and socio-cultural futures, making significant contributions to Caribbean Studies and beyond.\"\u003c\/div\u003e - Antonio Sotomayor (author of The Sovereign Colony: Olympic Sport, National Identity, and International Politics in Puer)\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eEqualiberty in the Dutch Caribbean\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of essays that explores fundamental questions of equality and freedom on the non-sovereign islands of the Dutch Caribbean. Drawing on in-depth ethnographic research, historical and media analysis, the study of popular culture, and autoethnographic accounts, the various contributions challenge conventional assumptions about political non\/sovereignty. While the book recognizes the existence of nationalist independence movements, it opens a critical space to look at other forms of political articulation, autonomy, liberty, and a good life. Focusing on all six different islands and through a multitude of voices and stories, the volume engages with the everyday projects, ordinary imaginaries, and dreams of equaliberty alongside the work of \u003ci\u003eindependistas\u003c\/i\u003e and traditional social movements aiming for more or full self-determination. As such, it offers a rich and powerful telling of the various ways of being in and belonging to our contemporary postcolonial world.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eForeword\u003cbr\u003eLinden Lewis\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003eFrancio Guadeloupe and Yvon van der Pijl\u003cbr\u003e1 Stories of Autonomy on Non-Sovereign Saba: Flipping the Script of Postcolonial Resistance\u003cbr\u003eNikki Mulder\u003cbr\u003e2 “\u003cbr\u003eEducation Must Be More!”\u003cbr\u003e Imagining and (Re)producing St. Martin\/Sint Maarten Belonging\u003cbr\u003eJordi Halfman\u003cbr\u003e3 People from Outside: Transnationalism and Nationness on Twenty-First-Century\u003cbr\u003eCuraÇ\u003cbr\u003eao\u003cbr\u003eGuiselle Starink-Martha\u003cbr\u003e4 The Trinta di Mei Labor Revolt and Its Aftermath: Anticipating a Just and Equitable CuraÇ\u003cbr\u003eaoan Nation\u003cbr\u003eRose Mary Allen\u003cbr\u003e5 Some Are More Equal than Others?
