Political influences
Westminster System
During the 1960s and 1970s the model of government installed in Caribbean
countries was the Westminster System. This is a form of parliamentary government
where the head of government( or Prime Minister) depends on the parliamentary
body for his or her position where there is no clear separation of powers between
the executive(head of government, cabinets, committees) and the legislature (the
representative of the electorate who comprise the law-making arm of government).
There is also a head of state with only ceremonial powers. In the Caribbean there are
many constitutional monarchies where the British monarch is officially the head of
state and represented by a governor general, as in Belize, Barbados and Jamaica.
Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana and Dominica have a republican form of
parliamentary government where a president is head of state, but it is still largely a
ceremonial post.
Rule of Law
Members win there seats in the electoral process following the rule of law. This
entails the campaigning of parties on various issues to the electorate after
which they ‘face the polls’ allowing the electorate to have the choice of either
voting for them or not without intimidation whereby if elected they would
accept their seats in the parliament to represent their constituents.
Electoral Process
A voting system or electoral system is a method by which voters make a choice
between options, often in an election or on a policy referendum. A voting
system enforces rules to ensure valid voting, and how votes are counted and
aggregated to yield a final result. Since voting involves counting, it
is algorithmic in nature, and, since it involves polling the sentiments of a
person, this represents affective data.
Caribbean contribution to political
life of Europe and North America
The influence of the Caribbean on extra-regional countries in relation to politics
revolves around questions of migration – immigration policy, illegal entry, quotas,
illegal sale of passports and visas, the needs and wants of immigrant community.
Because of these issues those counties take an active interest in the domestic
politics of Caribbean states. If economic woes, political instability or natural
disasters occur in the Caribbean, chances are that many persons will want to
migrate as a solution to their problems. E.g. The Caribbean is influencing politics in
the USA , and other metropolitan countries through its huge migrant population of
the Diaspora. In addition, the dangers associated with drug trafficking are forcing
the USA to change its traditional ways of interaction with Caribbean government by
adopting more co-operative relationships in the hope that the problem will be more
effectively addressed.
The influence of Migratory Labour
In the Caribbean society and culture migration has been a traditional practice. Which may lead to
both positive and negative impacts including:
Positive Impacts:
 Remittances are sent from Caribbean people to assist there families. This money helps the country in
earning a valuable source of foreign exchange for the home country
 We have the influx of Syrian as well as Chinese immigrants who come to our country and establish
businesses which in turn creates for our economy employment and other business opportunities.
Negative Impacts:
 The ‘Brain Drain’ effect through the emigration of skilled people, most of whom were trained by
Caribbean institutions (e.g nurses, teachers, technicians)
 The experience of racism in the metropolitan country and being treated as
second-class citizens as far as wages, benefits an grievances are concerned
 The injustice felt by seasonal workers, who are largely separated from residents
communities on large farms or orchards and who hold down jobs that residents
think are too menial for them
 The ‘mindset’ that better opportunities lie with extra-regional countries
Sport
Cricket
The name 'cricket' possibly derives from the Anglo-Saxon word 'cricce,' meaning 'crooked staff,' and
the precursor to cricket may have been the 13th century English game called club-ball. An alternate
theory connects the name with a short Church stool known as a 'krickstoel' in Flanders and a
'cricket' in England, a side view of which suggested the long, squat wicket of the game in its fledgling
stage. The West Indies cricket is a sporting confederation of over a dozen mainly English-
speaking Caribbean countries and dependencies that formed the British West Indies. Cricket is
traditionally the main sport in the West Indies. The game of cricket has had a long and complicated
history in the West Indies. Originally imported to the West Indies as an agent of control and
reaffirmation, the game steadily evolved into a cultural institution radically opposed to the original
intentions of those who conspired for its import. The exact role cricket has played in terms of
resistance to the postcolonial hegemonic order in the West Indies is widely debated. Much of this
debate has to do with the variety of ways in which cricket culture has been allowed to progress
according to specific histories of individual locales. Because of the diverse national histories in the
region, styles of cricket vary a great deal from one island to the next, as does the cultural work each
style performs This is the most popular sport in the Caribbean.
Political influences
Football
The game of soccer -- more commonly referred to outside the United States as football -- has long been one
of the most popular sports in the world. With origins that date back many centuries, football is played by
young children, college students and professionals. The birth date of football in the United States is
generally regarded by football historians as November 6, 1869, when teams from Rutgers and Princeton
Universities met for the first intercollegiate football game. In those early games, there were 20 players to a
team and football still more closely resembled rugby than modern football. The game of football has a
history of constant rule changes. Rule changes have been implemented to bolster the excitement of the
game of football and to increase the game's safety. In 1873, representatives from Columbia, Rutgers,
Princeton, and Yale Universities met in New York City to formulate the first intercollegiate football rules
for the increasingly popular game. These four teams established the Intercollegiate Football Association
(IFA) and set 15 as the number of players allowed on each team. Today this sport is one of the most popular
sport in the world at large. Amateur clubs and weekend warriors add to the passion that swells up every
four years for the most-watched sporting event in the world, the World Cup
Political influences
Basketball
Basketball is a team sport, the objective being to shoot a ball through a basket horizontally positioned to score
points while following a set of rules. Usually, two teams of five players play on a marked rectangular court with
a basket at each width end. Basketball is one of the world's most popular and widely viewed sports. An
American game that has traveled well is basketball, now played by more than 250 million people worldwide in
an organized fashion, as well as by countless others in "pick-up" games. Basketball originated in 1891 when a
future Presbyterian minister named James Naismith (1861-1939) was assigned to teach a physical education
class at a Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) training school in Springfield, Massachusetts. The class
had been noted for being disorderly, and Naismith was told to invent a new game to keep the young men
occupied. Since it was winter and very cold outside, a game that could be played indoors was desirable.
Naismith thought back to his boyhood in Canada, where he and his friends had played "duck on a rock,"
which involved trying to knock a large rock off a boulder by throwing smaller rocks at it. He also recalled
watching rugby players toss a ball into a box in a gymnasium. He had the idea of nailing up raised boxes into
which players would attempt to throw a ball. When boxes couldn't be found, he used peach
baskets. According to Alexander Wolff, in his book 100 Years of Hoops, Naismith drew up the rules for the
new game in "about an hour." Most of them still apply in some form today.
Political influences
Track and Field
Track and field is a sport comprising various competitive athletic contests based on running, jumping, and
throwing. The name of the sport derives from the competition venue: a stadium with an oval running track
around a grass field. The throwing and jumping events generally take place in the central enclosed area. Track and
field falls under the umbrella sport of athletics—(which includes road running, cross-country running, and race
walking). The history of track and field traces back to the earliest of times was originated in Greece People have
been walking, running or throwing things since the beginning of man. Competition as a natural means of
manhood took root and individuals began to run against one another. The first race of record is noted to have
taken place at the first Olympic Festival in Ancient Rome in 776 B.C. It was said to have been a stadium race or one
length around the stadium. During these times the Olympics remained the main stage for all track and field
events and it only showcased such events every four years. The events began to evolve over the centuries as a
number of new track competitions were incorporated as well as non track and field events. The pentathlon
consisting of five events, boxing, wrestling and foot races of varying length were installed into the early Olympics.
It is often said that the ancient Roman and Greek warriors often incorporated running into there training. Daily
doses of running through hills, jousting, wrestling and hand to hand combat were routine forms of training. The
two most prestigious international track and field competitions are held under the banner of athletics:
the athletics competitive at the Olympic Games and the IAFF World Championship in Athletics.
The International Association of Athletics Federations is the international governing body for track and field.

Political influences

  • 2. Westminster System During the 1960s and 1970s the model of government installed in Caribbean countries was the Westminster System. This is a form of parliamentary government where the head of government( or Prime Minister) depends on the parliamentary body for his or her position where there is no clear separation of powers between the executive(head of government, cabinets, committees) and the legislature (the representative of the electorate who comprise the law-making arm of government). There is also a head of state with only ceremonial powers. In the Caribbean there are many constitutional monarchies where the British monarch is officially the head of state and represented by a governor general, as in Belize, Barbados and Jamaica. Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana and Dominica have a republican form of parliamentary government where a president is head of state, but it is still largely a ceremonial post.
  • 3. Rule of Law Members win there seats in the electoral process following the rule of law. This entails the campaigning of parties on various issues to the electorate after which they ‘face the polls’ allowing the electorate to have the choice of either voting for them or not without intimidation whereby if elected they would accept their seats in the parliament to represent their constituents.
  • 4. Electoral Process A voting system or electoral system is a method by which voters make a choice between options, often in an election or on a policy referendum. A voting system enforces rules to ensure valid voting, and how votes are counted and aggregated to yield a final result. Since voting involves counting, it is algorithmic in nature, and, since it involves polling the sentiments of a person, this represents affective data.
  • 5. Caribbean contribution to political life of Europe and North America The influence of the Caribbean on extra-regional countries in relation to politics revolves around questions of migration – immigration policy, illegal entry, quotas, illegal sale of passports and visas, the needs and wants of immigrant community. Because of these issues those counties take an active interest in the domestic politics of Caribbean states. If economic woes, political instability or natural disasters occur in the Caribbean, chances are that many persons will want to migrate as a solution to their problems. E.g. The Caribbean is influencing politics in the USA , and other metropolitan countries through its huge migrant population of the Diaspora. In addition, the dangers associated with drug trafficking are forcing the USA to change its traditional ways of interaction with Caribbean government by adopting more co-operative relationships in the hope that the problem will be more effectively addressed.
  • 6. The influence of Migratory Labour In the Caribbean society and culture migration has been a traditional practice. Which may lead to both positive and negative impacts including: Positive Impacts:  Remittances are sent from Caribbean people to assist there families. This money helps the country in earning a valuable source of foreign exchange for the home country  We have the influx of Syrian as well as Chinese immigrants who come to our country and establish businesses which in turn creates for our economy employment and other business opportunities. Negative Impacts:  The ‘Brain Drain’ effect through the emigration of skilled people, most of whom were trained by Caribbean institutions (e.g nurses, teachers, technicians)
  • 7.  The experience of racism in the metropolitan country and being treated as second-class citizens as far as wages, benefits an grievances are concerned  The injustice felt by seasonal workers, who are largely separated from residents communities on large farms or orchards and who hold down jobs that residents think are too menial for them  The ‘mindset’ that better opportunities lie with extra-regional countries
  • 8. Sport Cricket The name 'cricket' possibly derives from the Anglo-Saxon word 'cricce,' meaning 'crooked staff,' and the precursor to cricket may have been the 13th century English game called club-ball. An alternate theory connects the name with a short Church stool known as a 'krickstoel' in Flanders and a 'cricket' in England, a side view of which suggested the long, squat wicket of the game in its fledgling stage. The West Indies cricket is a sporting confederation of over a dozen mainly English- speaking Caribbean countries and dependencies that formed the British West Indies. Cricket is traditionally the main sport in the West Indies. The game of cricket has had a long and complicated history in the West Indies. Originally imported to the West Indies as an agent of control and reaffirmation, the game steadily evolved into a cultural institution radically opposed to the original intentions of those who conspired for its import. The exact role cricket has played in terms of resistance to the postcolonial hegemonic order in the West Indies is widely debated. Much of this debate has to do with the variety of ways in which cricket culture has been allowed to progress according to specific histories of individual locales. Because of the diverse national histories in the region, styles of cricket vary a great deal from one island to the next, as does the cultural work each style performs This is the most popular sport in the Caribbean.
  • 10. Football The game of soccer -- more commonly referred to outside the United States as football -- has long been one of the most popular sports in the world. With origins that date back many centuries, football is played by young children, college students and professionals. The birth date of football in the United States is generally regarded by football historians as November 6, 1869, when teams from Rutgers and Princeton Universities met for the first intercollegiate football game. In those early games, there were 20 players to a team and football still more closely resembled rugby than modern football. The game of football has a history of constant rule changes. Rule changes have been implemented to bolster the excitement of the game of football and to increase the game's safety. In 1873, representatives from Columbia, Rutgers, Princeton, and Yale Universities met in New York City to formulate the first intercollegiate football rules for the increasingly popular game. These four teams established the Intercollegiate Football Association (IFA) and set 15 as the number of players allowed on each team. Today this sport is one of the most popular sport in the world at large. Amateur clubs and weekend warriors add to the passion that swells up every four years for the most-watched sporting event in the world, the World Cup
  • 12. Basketball Basketball is a team sport, the objective being to shoot a ball through a basket horizontally positioned to score points while following a set of rules. Usually, two teams of five players play on a marked rectangular court with a basket at each width end. Basketball is one of the world's most popular and widely viewed sports. An American game that has traveled well is basketball, now played by more than 250 million people worldwide in an organized fashion, as well as by countless others in "pick-up" games. Basketball originated in 1891 when a future Presbyterian minister named James Naismith (1861-1939) was assigned to teach a physical education class at a Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) training school in Springfield, Massachusetts. The class had been noted for being disorderly, and Naismith was told to invent a new game to keep the young men occupied. Since it was winter and very cold outside, a game that could be played indoors was desirable. Naismith thought back to his boyhood in Canada, where he and his friends had played "duck on a rock," which involved trying to knock a large rock off a boulder by throwing smaller rocks at it. He also recalled watching rugby players toss a ball into a box in a gymnasium. He had the idea of nailing up raised boxes into which players would attempt to throw a ball. When boxes couldn't be found, he used peach baskets. According to Alexander Wolff, in his book 100 Years of Hoops, Naismith drew up the rules for the new game in "about an hour." Most of them still apply in some form today.
  • 14. Track and Field Track and field is a sport comprising various competitive athletic contests based on running, jumping, and throwing. The name of the sport derives from the competition venue: a stadium with an oval running track around a grass field. The throwing and jumping events generally take place in the central enclosed area. Track and field falls under the umbrella sport of athletics—(which includes road running, cross-country running, and race walking). The history of track and field traces back to the earliest of times was originated in Greece People have been walking, running or throwing things since the beginning of man. Competition as a natural means of manhood took root and individuals began to run against one another. The first race of record is noted to have taken place at the first Olympic Festival in Ancient Rome in 776 B.C. It was said to have been a stadium race or one length around the stadium. During these times the Olympics remained the main stage for all track and field events and it only showcased such events every four years. The events began to evolve over the centuries as a number of new track competitions were incorporated as well as non track and field events. The pentathlon consisting of five events, boxing, wrestling and foot races of varying length were installed into the early Olympics. It is often said that the ancient Roman and Greek warriors often incorporated running into there training. Daily doses of running through hills, jousting, wrestling and hand to hand combat were routine forms of training. The two most prestigious international track and field competitions are held under the banner of athletics: the athletics competitive at the Olympic Games and the IAFF World Championship in Athletics. The International Association of Athletics Federations is the international governing body for track and field.
