Haiti: From Revolutionary Slaves to Powerless Citizens cover

This title focuses on Haiti from an international perspective. Haiti has endured undue influence from successive French and US governments; its fragile 'democracy' has been founded on subordination to and dominance of foreign powers. This book examines Haiti's position within the global economic and political order, and how the more dominant members of the international community have, in varying ways, exploited the country over the last 200 years.

"a “must-read” for scholars interested in Haitian history and politics as well as in the intersection of class and race relations", Robert Fatton Jr., New West Indian Guide
