| dc.description | This paper examines how the practice of international election observation in the Commonwealth Caribbean was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Many countries were faced with the decision on whether to conduct or delay elections during the pandemic. Between March 2020 and June 2022, 10 out of 12 Commonwealth Caribbean countries held elections.1 All these countries, except for Barbados, have had their elections observed by at least one regional or international organization during the last two decades.2 The closure of borders and the various quarantine requirements had practical implications for maintaining this trend during the pandemic. Most countries that regularly invite international observers did not have their pandemic-held elections observed. This paper considers the reasons for the absence of observers in some elections and explores the adjustments observer groups have had to make during the last two years. The discussion also explores how Caribbean countries were able to indicate their commitment to holding free and fair elections in the absence of observers. For the countries that had observers, the discussion examines how these missions navigated issues of cost, shorter invitation periods, challenges in international travel, the recruitment of suitable observers and local pandemic protocols and conditions. | en-US |
| dc.description | Este artículo examina cómo la práctica de la observación electoral internacional en los países caribeños de la Commonwealth se vio afectada por la pandemia de covid-19. Muchos países se enfrentaron a la decisión de realizar o retrasar elecciones durante esta crisis. Entre marzo de 2020 y junio de 2022, 10 de los 12 países de la Commonwealth en el Caribe celebraron elecciones. Todos estos países, excepto Barbados, han tenido sus elecciones observadas por al menos una organización regional o internacional durante las últimas dos décadas. El cierre de fronteras y los diversos requisitos de cuarentena tuvieron implicaciones prácticas para mantener esta tendencia durante la pandemia. La mayoría de los países que invitan regularmente a observadores internacionales no lo hicieron en esta ocasión. Este artículo considera las razones de la ausencia de observadores en algunas elecciones y explora los ajustes que los grupos de observadores han tenido que hacer durante los últimos dos años. También explora cómo los países del Caribe pudieron manifestar su compromiso de celebrar elecciones libres y justas en ausencia de observadores. Para los países que tenían observadores, la discusión examina cómo estas misiones se enfrentaron a problemas de costos, periodos de invitación más cortos, desafíos en viajes internacionales, reclutamiento de observadores adecuados y protocolos y limitaciones pandémicas locales. | es-ES |
