Abstract
This paper analyzes ‘post-colonial sovereignty games’ by focusing on the dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles within the context of the Netherlands and its Caribbean dependent territories. The Kingdom of the Netherlands was comprised of the Netherlands, the Netherlands Antilles, and Aruba. Since 10/10/10, the Dutch Kingdom has reconstituted as the Netherlands and ‘autonomous countries’ and ‘public bodies’ in the Caribbean. The paper argues ‘good governance’ and ‘neocolonialism’ are strategically invoked in these multilevel postcolonial sovereignty games where simultaneous trends of autonomy, integration, and more Netherlands involvement are ‘sui generis’ in international relations.
