    Prolegomenon: Glocality at the bus terminal: space and the enactment of transnational citizenships
    in Social Identities , Volume 14, Issue 4, July 2008 ,  2008 ,  465 - 472
    This paper is an initial examination the significance of spatial relations to the constitution of transnational citizenships. Specifically, the paper explores practices of place and space in a Barbadian bus terminal. This terminal is a rich site at which citizens, migrants, state managers and economic elites contest the meanings of both Barbadian citizenship and the Caribbean regional integration movement. It is an integration movement prompted, in part, by the imperatives of globalization - trading blocs are a matter of survival. Yet the movement of people that is facilitated by this regional project is made even more complex by those colonial legacies of international migrations - forced and otherwise - which have shaped race relations in the region.
