This essay serves as an introduction to a suite of essays exploring the significance and resonance of Charles V. Carnegie's Postnationalism Prefigured (2002). The occasion for these reflections is the twentieth anniversary of the publication of the book. The authors' discussion examines the place of Carnegie's work in relation to questions of Caribbean intellectual genealogies.

They also examine and reflect on the ongoing importance of Carnegie's scholarship
