Haiti's history is one of revolution, intervention, and persistent
underdevelopment. This book seeks to make sense of these
challenging experiences through an examination of the political
legacies of the Duvalier period and after. Revisiting the work of
the late David Nicholls, widely acknowledged as a leading authority
on Haiti, the chapters examine crucial questions of politics and
power in Haiti, touching on issues of race and ethnicity, foreign
intervention, economic development, and the impact of the
devastating earthquake of January 2010. Leading academics and
experts in Caribbean and Haitian Studies provide some of the keys
to understanding the turbulent world of Haitian politics and the
persistent challenges at home and from abroad which have distorted
the country's development.
