"""Alex Dupuy is today's leading scholar on Haiti. This volume builds on his critical understanding of Haiti's tortured colonial and neo-colonial histories and links the country's current crisis to the ongoing actions of imperialist forces and its continuing underdevelopment along lines of class, race, and gender. The failed state and endemic crime situation are brilliantly treated. A must read!""- ""This book presents a brilliant analysis of the neoliberal policies imposed on Haiti by international institutions. Dupuy skillfully connects decades of extractive foreign interventions in Haiti, from the US occupation to the aftermath of Jovenel Moïse's assassination. Haiti since 1804 points the way toward a future in which Haitians might finally regain sovereignty over their own economy and government."" Alex Dupuy, one of the most influential Haitianists of his generation, has written a powerful and trenchant work that undermines widely held assumptions about Haiti's political and economic history. Clearly written and unencumbered by fashionable theoretical trends, Haiti since 1804, deserves a wide audience. Its arguments are persuasive and will challenge many out of their comfort zones."
