The island was uninhabited when first settled by the British
in 1627. Slaves worked the sugar plantations established on
the island until 1834 when slavery was abolished. The economy
remained heavily dependent on sugar, rum, and molasses production
through most of the 20th century. The gradual introduction of
social and political reforms in the 1940s and 1950s led to complete
independence from the UK in 1966. In the 1990s, tourism and
manufacturing surpassed the sugar industry in economic importance.

Historically,
the Barbadian economy was dependent on sugarcane cultivation
and related activities. However, in recent years the economy
has diversified into light industry and tourism, with about
three-quarters of GDP and 80% of exports being attributed to
services. Growth has rebounded since 2003, bolstered by increases
in construction projects and tourism revenues, reflecting its
success in the higher-end segment, but the sector will likely
face declining revenues with the global economic downturn. The
country enjoys one of the highest per capita incomes in the
region. Offshore finance and information services are important
foreign exchange earners and thrive from having the same time
zone as eastern US financial centers and a relatively highly
educated workforce. The government continues its efforts to
reduce unemployment, to encourage direct foreign investment,
and to privatize remaining state-owned enterprises. The public
debt-to-GDP ratio of about 80% will likely widen as the THOMPSON
administration engages in a more expansionary fiscal policy.
