Trevor St George Munroe (born 10 December 1944) is a Jamaican political scientist, labour activist, and politician.
==Biography==
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Munroe attended high school at St. George's College (Class of 1959) and later studied political science at the University of the West Indies, Mona. He won a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University, where he obtained the D.Phil in political science for a landmark study of the process of decolonization in Jamaica between the 1930s and 1960s, published as ''The Politics of Constitutional Decolonization'' in 1972.〔(''The Politics of Constitutional Decolonization: Jamaica, 1944-62'' ), Institute of Social and Economic Research, University of the West Indies, 1972.〕
On his return to Jamaica in the late 1960s, he became involved in the political ferment that followed the Rodney Riots of 1968. Munroe founded a trade union, the University and Allied Workers' Union, initially to represent janitorial and service staff at the UWI. In 1974 he founded the Workers' Liberation League (WLL), an explicitly pro-Soviet Marxist-Leninist organization. In 1978, working with Elean Thomas and others, He transformed the WLL into the Workers Party of Jamaica (WPJ), and served as its general secretary.〔(World Marxist review ), Volume 30, Issues 1-6, p. 35.〕
The WPJ dissolved in 1992, following the collapse of the Soviet Union. After the elections of 1997 Monroe was appointed an independent senator by Prime Minister Percival Patterson. In 2002, he was reappointed to the Senate as a member of the People's National Party.
