Caribbean

The Caribbean is a region in the middle of the Americas centered around the Caribbean Sea in the North Atlantic Ocean, mostly overlapping with the West Indies. About the Caribbean More and more I come across the term “transnational” used in relation to the Caribbean — and the idea of the Caribbean not as a place but as a wider space that defies geographical or political boundaries, and that a huge diasporic population is part of. It seems sometimes that half the people in the world who think of themselves as Caribbean don’t actually live in the Caribbean region.
