Identity and integration in the Greater Caribbean - Discourses on the Wider Caribbean in the print media of four countries in the region (1994-2005)

Can the aspiration of an integrated Caribbean community be achieved without acting on the cognitive systems that regulate, guide, shape that society? The answer is no, it cannot be achieved without acting on it. It has to be done. It is a long-term effort but it is very necessary. The experience of the Association of Caribbean States taught me that there are limitations to what can be done at the governmental or intergovernmental level, because a lot depends on the financial side and donor agencies prefer to finance economic projects; they don't like to finance cultural or social exchange. From a theoretical point of view, he is absolutely right, you have to act on cognitive systems". Norman Girvan.
