Abstract
Previous speakers in this series addressed the celebrated contribution of Sir Arthur Lewis to intellectual and public life in the Caribbean: as scholar, teacher, administrator, and role model to a remarkably creative generation of West Indian economists. In his inaugural address, Rex Nettleford, reminded us that this eminent economist and Nobel Laureate was, in the final analysis, a great educator and guru to his people both in the Caribbean and the Third World who perceived their future and any hope of redemption to rest firmly on the exercise of their intellect and their imagination. I thank the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank for the opportunity to join Norman Girvan, Alistair McIntyre, and Lloyd Best in paying my respects to the memory of Sir Arthur Lewis-illustrious son of the Caribbean, public intellectual and development economist supreme.
