Especially in the aftermath of the Duvalier regime and the 2010 earthquake, continual imperial interventions have time and again threatened its sovereignty.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWho Owns Haiti?\u003c\/i\u003e explores the role of international actors in the country's sovereign affairs while highlighting the ways in which Haitians continually enact their own independence on economic, political, and cultural levels. This volume addresses how Haitian institutions, grassroots organizations, and individuals respond to and resist external influence, considering assertions of sovereignty from historically marginalized urban and rural populations. Contributors from a variety of disciplinary perspectives--including political science, anthropology, history, economics, and development studies--argue that varying discussions of ownership are central to Haiti's future as a sovereign state.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors: Laurent Dubois - Robert Fatton Jr. - Scott Freeman - Nicholas Johnson - Chelsey Kivland - Robert Maguire - Francois Pierre-Louis Jr. - Karen Richman - Ricardo Seitenfus - Amy Wilentz \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Maguire is professor of international development studies at the George Washington University Elliott School of International Affairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.48 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 07, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52618063774003,"sku":"9780813064598","price":47.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/L1ZNK3o1cERSZFMzdnkvb1BwNDQvZz09.webp?v=1761901062","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/who-owns-haiti-people-power-and-sovereignty-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
