ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book expresses the view that, from the end of the Second World War in 1945 to the beginning of the 21st century, the Commonwealth Caribbean witnessed much constitution making as one of its incidents of decolonisation. The developments which have been considered in this volume emphasise not only that most of the countries reviewed have succeeded in being de-colonised but they demonstrate the part which the United Nations has played in effecting that decolonisation. It is also significant that the organisation, in 1983, held in Barbados a seminar on 'Comparison of Law and Legal Systems of the Commonwealth Caribbean States and the other Members of the Organisation of American States. As we begin the 21st century, it is clear from the foregoing that the strides one have made in the Caribbean in governing ourselves have been accompanied by hideous fragmentation and proliferation.
