ABSTRACT

The title of this essay is purely academic at this juncture; and the reason for such a disclaimer is quite simple. There was a time when the problems of the Caribbean region could be summed up in the broad stroked assessment of colonialism and neo-colonialism. Then spirituality would have been the viable suggestion as a solution, because it addressed the consequences of colonialism and neo-colonialism through the demands of the principle of equality under the rubric of the imago dei—we are all made in the image of God.
