The Faculty of Social Sciences (FSS) at The University of the West Indies, Mona, continues to champion rigorous and policy relevant research that illuminates the evolving dynamics of global political economy. In his recent column, “Globalisation, power and the rewriting of economic rules,” Dr. Andre Haughton, economist and lecturer in the Department of Economics, offers a timely and incisive examination of the shifting global order and its implications for Jamaica and the wider Caribbean region.
