About the book

The maritime dispute between Guyana and Suriname which came to a head in 2000 threatened not only relations between the two countries but also the peace and stability of the wider maritime area of the Caribbean. After a three-year legal process, the dispute was settled by arbitration under UNCLOS - the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Ramphal traces the history of this dispute and tells the story of how it was eventually settled.
