ABSTRACT
In this work, I apply Anna G. Jónasdóttir’s construction of ‘love power’ to developing a theory of sexuality and power in the contemporary Commonwealth Caribbean.1 In much of my work, I have been searching for what goes wrong for Caribbean women at different sites within Caribbean political economy. However I have never examined why unequal conditions continue to persist for women from the vantage point of what Jónasdóttir has theorized as political sexuality and the socio-sexual relationship, governed by her concept of ‘love power’ (Jónasdóttir 1994: 223-227, 2007a).
