Trinidad and Tobago has a favorable and open investment climate and most investment barriers have been eliminated. Trinidad and Tobago experienced another economic contraction in 2009 and expects minimal growth in 2010. After a 3.5% decline in 2009, Real GDP growth is expected to increase by 2.8% in 2010. The manufacturing sector expects a modest growth of 0.1 percent, settling at 8.4 percent of GDP. The government of Trinidad and Tobago expects minor fluctuation in the manufacturing subsectors. For instance food, beverages and tobacco from 4.1 percent in 2009 to 4.0 percent in 2010, whereas textile, garments and footwear should remain steady at 0.2 percent in 2010, as should wood and related products at 0.1 percent. Chemical and non-metallic minerals should also be constant at 1.4 percent while assembly type and related industries should experience a slight bump from 1.5 percent in 2009 to 1.7 percent in 2010. Tourism is a major generator of employment, an increasingly important source of foreign exchange. The Tourism Development Act was amended in 2005 to provide tax holidays and other incentives to investors with tourism projects. Tourism has been emphasized as a key sector for development and investment by the People's Partnership government, yet the distribution and restaurant sector should contract from 10.6 percent in 2009 to 10 percent in 2010. Hotels and guesthouses are expected to maintain 0.2 percent of the GDP in 2010. The construction and quarrying industry contracted in 2009 and 2010 with most major construction project completed or near completion, and slow-down of private and public construction projects. The sectors contribution to 2010 GDP is anticipated to be 7.0 percent, down from 7.7 percent in 2009. A recent loan of US$1.5 million from the InterAmerican Development Bank, however, is targeted at several construction sectors and may provide a substantial stimulus to the industry in 2011 and 2012. The Financial Services sector continued its 2009 contraction in 2010 with a shift from 13.0 percent in 2009 to 12.8 percent in 2010. Output growth is projected to decelerate in the Finance, Insurance and Real Estate sub-sector reflecting slow growth in the commercial banking and non-bank financial institution and decline in real estate and other miscellaneous services. Additionally, the fallout over the government's mishandled bailout of investment firm CLICO has shaken confidence in the sector generally. The government launched TTBizLink (https: //www.ttbizlink.gov.tt/) in an attempt to streamline the requirements for doing business in TT. Designed to facilitate business and trade, companies/individuals who wish to import/export goods, apply for permits and licenses, register a business or conduct other business related activities can submit their documents online via this website. As of December 2010, headline inflation jumped to 14.1, a significant increase from 1.3 percent a year earlier. Food prices, driven up by flooding in early 2010, forced prices up generally. Vegetable prices increased by 52.5 percent, fruits by 37.9 percent, and salt and spices by 82.4 percent. Price increases for transport (12.1 percent) and recreation and culture (13.6 percent) also contributed to the spiral of inflation

As separate entities and later a unified state, the Caribbean islands of Trinidad and Tobago boast very unique histories. Initially claimed by the Spanish in 1498, these territories were affected by the imperialist thrusts of various European nations including the French, British and Dutch. The mercantilist infiltrations of these groups, particularly in the 18th century, led to the islands’ belated development as sugar producers and, particularly Trinidad, as a cradle of migration. World War II and the development of the oil and tourism industries in the 20th century transformed the economies, culture and society of these islands. The country has been one of the most important in the region in relation to economic and political leadership and as a centre of cultural development. Historical Dictionary of Trinidad and Tobago contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 500 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Trinidad and Tobago.

A trav s de dos colonizaciones, una Espa ola y otra Norteamericana, intelectuales puertorrique os y extranjeros han intentado contestar y hasta definir tres elementos de la sociedad cultural puertorrique a que hasta hoy d a nos sigue aludiendo y creando una incertidumbre que hoy en d a se siguen explorando, como aquellas de la; docilidad, la identidad nacional y el discurso pol tico colonial puertorrique o. La problem tica de acuerdo al autor Michael Soto Mart nez, ha sido que dichos temas siempre han sido trastocados de formas individuales y por tanto han sido responsables de dicha incertidumbre intelectual, que de acuerdo al autor debieron haber sido analizadas como la esencia de una misma problem tica y en donde todas se encuentran entrelazadas y yuxtapuestas entre s . El autor comienza y termina analizando dichos temas entrelaz ndolos hist ricamente a trav s del todo el libro, desde sus comienzos a mediados del siglo 19 y la colonizaci n espa ola hasta hoy (colonizaci n norteamericana), para as tratar de analizar a trav s de una teor a critica y de conocimiento un intento de contestar dicha problem tica que nos ha sido tan alusivas hist ricamente. El autor tambi n alude a las diferentes posturas te ricas sociales que se han utilizado para analizar dicha problem tica y nos lleva a repensar dichas posturas a trav s de lo que l llama una, "teor a de perspectivas", que en vez de polarizar y antagonizar los diversos pensamientos y planteamientos intelectuales, y donde estas puedan entrelazarse entre s , a trav s de las teor as cr ticas y de conocimiento.

William Hardin Burnley (1780-1850) was the largest slave owner in Trinidad during the nineteenth century. Born in the United States to English parents, he settled on the island in 1802 and became one of its most influential citizens and a prominent agent of the British Empire. A central figure among elite and moneyed transnational slave owners, Burnley moved easily through the Atlantic world of the Caribbean, the United States, Great Britain, and Europe, and counted among his friends Alexis de Tocqueville, British politician Joseph Hume, and prime minister William Gladstone.In this first full-length biography of Burnley, Selwyn R. Cudjoe chronicles the life of Trinidad's ""founding father"" and sketches the social and cultural milieu in which he lived. Reexamining the decades of transition from slavery to freedom through the lens of Burnley's life, The Slave Master of Trinidad demonstrates that the legacies of slavery persisted in the new post-emancipation society.
