Haiti is a country which, until the earthquake of 2010, remained
largely outside the focus of world interest and outside the
important international historical currents during its existence as
a free nation. The nineteenth century was the decisive period in
Haitian history, serving to shape the class structure, the
political tradition and the economic system. During most of this
period, Haiti had little contact with both its immediate neighbours
and the industrialised nations of the world, which led to the
development of Haiti as a peasant nation. This title, first
published in 1979, examines the factors responsible for the poverty
of the Haitian peasant, by using both traditional economic models
as well as a multidisciplinary approach incorporating economics and
other branches of social science. The analysis deals primarily with
the Haitian peasant economy from the early 1950s to the early
1970s, examining in depth the explanations for the secular tendency
of rural per capita incomes to decline during this period.
