Professor Griffith has published widely on Caribbean national security, drugs, and crime issues, including the books Strategy and Security in the Caribbean (1991), The Quest for Security in the Caribbean (1993), Drugs and Security in the Caribbean (1997), Democracy and Human Rights in the Caribbean (1997), The Political Economy of Drugs in the Caribbean (2000), Caribbean Security in the Age of Terror (2004), and Challenged Sovereignty: The Impact of Drugs, Crime, Terrorism, and Cyber Threats in the Caribbean (2024). His next book—Oil and Climate Change in the Guyana-Suriname Petro-Power Basin—will be published by Routledge this coming June. His first novel, Sylvie’s Love and Loss also will be published later this year by Wordeee.
