Announcing “Fueling Development: How Black Radical Trade Unionism Transformed Trinidad and Tobago” by Zophia Edwards

In this new book, Fueling Development: How Black Radical Trade Unionism Transformed Trinidad and Tobago, Zophia Edwards shows how a Black-led, multiracial, internationalist, and transformation-oriented labor movement—liberation unionism—channeled Trinidad and Tobago’s oil wealth into a force for democratic and redistributive development. Drawing on historical research and Black political economic thought, Edwards offers a powerful lens on the relationship between race, labor, state-building, and development in the Global South.
