Here in one place as suggested by my friend Helena who worked at the Cultural Office after she had read the five pieces, for the benefit of persons beyond the confines of the geographical space occupied by the island, and for those who would otherwise not have been exposed to the thoughts expressed, or would have had to carry out the laborious search through the Montserrat Reporters archives in order to revisit any of the pieces but for the last which has not previously appeared in print, are the socio, economic, and political analyses as documented under various pseudonyms by Haycene Ryan over the period 1991-2008. Where pen names were used, it was done, not out of fear, but on the premise that, as so often occurs in small societies, some persons would not bother to read a piece because of their negative perception of the authors capabilities or motive while, others accept the ideas without question due to their association with the individual with neither group employing any measure of critical thinking whatsoever. The articles were all written with the future of Montserrat and its inhabitants in mind and not to promote any individual or political party ideology.
