Abstract
The vulnerabilities, challenges and prospects for the Caribbean region are unique and specific to the region's states. The Caribbean can be defined by geographical, ethno-historical and geo-political frameworks. Shelton Nicholls (2009) depicts the geographic definition of the Caribbean as an archipelagic group of islands while Benn and Hall (2000) describe Caribbean states in ethno-historical terms, being the islands and the adjacent coastal communities in South and Central America who share a comparable history, culture and ethnicity. This paper focuses primarily on the small states of the Caribbean region. This paper analyses all state security in the 21st century. The discourse centres on the reconfigured framework for the analysis of security in small states in the Caribbean. The paper argues that the inherent vulnerabilities of these small states perpetuate the already substantial and comprehensive security agenda facing these states. The aim is to evaluate Caribbean small states' perceptions of security within the framework of hemispheric challenges, and its applicability to the strengthening/enhancement of regional responses to such challenges.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
