Abstract

The article discusses the potential shift in the relationship between Caribbean nations and the British monarchy following the coronation of King Charles III. With the death of Queen Elizabeth II, there is a resurgence of calls in several Commonwealth realm countries, particularly in the Caribbean, to transition away from monarchy, as exemplified by Barbados' recent move to become a republic. The legacy of colonization and slavery has intensified anti-monarchist sentiments, with some viewing the Commonwealth as a form of neo-colonialism that perpetuates financial imbalances and undermines Indigenous cultures. Countries like Jamaica are seen as likely candidates for similar transitions, reflecting a broader desire for self-determination and acknowledgment of historical injustices.
