Abstract

This article concentrates on three Leeward Island nations in the Caribbean that lie between the Anegada Passage on the northwest and the Guadeloupe Passage on the southeast. The islands are St. Martin, which is divided into a French side and a Dutch side, and two formerly British ones—St. Kitts and Antigua. With regard to St. Martin, only the Dutch half, St. Maarten, shall be discussed. Each has been involved in the illicit drug industry, especially in money-laundering activities. This article will discuss a number of themes, including the interplay between casino culture and narcotics trafficking, as well as the economy of each island nation. By focusing on these three island nations, a template can be formed for understanding the contemporary criminal justice problems throughout the Caribbean region.
