The maritime dispute between Guyana and Suriname which came to a head with the resort to force by Suriname in 2000, threatened not only relations between the two countries but also the peace and stability of the wider maritime area of the Caribbean.
This book tells the story of that dispute between Britain and Holland as the metropoles of Guyana and Suriname, and then between the neighbours themselves as they became independent. It explains the process of peaceful settlement in 2007 through arbitration, and of the triumph of UNCLOS in enabling it.
