The Caribbean Studies Network aims at bringing together the main scientific teams studing the Caribbean in Spain, Europe and Latin America in order to share information and research projects and to increase cooperation. This network's main objective is the compilation of a History of the Antilles to be published by Ediciones Doce Calles as part of the Antillia Series and cooordinated from the CSIC by Prof. Consuelo Naranjo Orovio. Meetings will be held for the specialists involved in the project to unify monograph criteria and discuss results as the preparation of chapters and volumes progresses.
The GECCMA -Comparative Studies Team on Caribbean and Atlantic World- is at the Network's core, and its

members are: Prof. C. Naranjo Orovio, I. Roldán de Montaud, Mª D. González-Ripoll, A. Crespo Solana, V. Pettinà, L. Fernández Prieto and A. Santamaría, of the Instituo de Historia (CSIC). GECCMA takes a wide approach on Caribbean building processes based on society as culture-generating and culture as society-moulding. Our projects stem from an Atlantic perspective that is central to understanding unity and diversity in Caribbean History marked by continuity and rupture, into which colonising powers and metropolises brought both cohesive and differentiating elements.
We strive to carry out a transversal study of the various realities in the Caribbean world, where comparative analysis will lead to the study of singularity.

The GECCMA works closely with the Universitat Jaume I through the Historia Social Comparada Associated Unit .
