In 1946, the people of the French Antilles--the Caribbean islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe--chose the path of assimilation rather than independence from France. Their histories offer an important contrast to the wars of decolonization following World War II. Although Antilleans experienced profound disappointments with the process, the vote for departmentalization was based on widely-shared beliefs about the possibilities of gaining equality through an alternative path to decolonization.
