  <abstract>Deals with post-independence reforms which have taken place in the constitutions of 12 Commonwealth Caribbean states.  Relates the structure and content of associated statehood or independence instruments to the colonial past and discusses the historical aspects of the constitution making.  Examines the constitutional position of 6 colonies (up to 1984) including Montserrat, British Virgin Islands, Turks and Caicos Islands, Bermuda and the Cayman Islands. Reflects on past constitutional change and discusses future constitutional development.</abstract>
