Journal article

Haiti's small black pigs did more than feed people. Aristide describes them as the savings bank of the countryside, hardy and cheap to keep, sold off to cover a funeral, an illness, or the October school fees, and part of how the soil kept its fertility.

In 1982 international agencies told peasants the herd was diseased and had to go, and within thirteen months every animal was dead. Replacements arrived two years later from Iowa needing clean water, roofed pens and imported feed that cost most of a year's income, which is why peasants nicknamed them four-footed princes. Aristide totals the damage at roughly six hundred million dollars, a third fewer children in rural schools, and less protein on the table.

For much of rural Haiti this was the first encounter with the global economy, and he offers it as the reason talk of privatization now meets shaken heads.

The French Slave Trade: An Overview

Geggus · 2001 · The William and Mary Quarterly 58(1), 119-138

France occupied the middle ground in the Atlantic slave trade — in how long it took part, what share it carried, how quickly it withdrew, and in the mortality and sex ratios recorded aboard its ships.

DOI · Journal article

France occupied the middle ground in the Atlantic slave trade — in how long it took part, what share it carried, how quickly it withdrew, and in the mortality and sex ratios recorded aboard its ships. Geggus surveys the Du Bois Institute dataset of just over four thousand French slaving voyages, sketching the trade's timing, its African sources and the age and sex of the captives, before turning to the Caribbean colonies that received nine ships in ten.

Those colonies drew on different parts of Africa, according to crop, to when each was settled, and to what merchants found convenient: Saint-Domingue took nearly half its captives from West Central Africa, Martinique nearly half from the Bight of Benin, Guadeloupe an unusual share from Biafra. Geggus uses the pattern to revisit why Ewe-Fon elements dominate Vodou's vocabulary and pantheon despite Kongo numbers, and to argue that Kongo influence has been steadily underrated.

Journal article

Outsiders have read Haitian Vodou through stereotype for two centuries — as the antithesis of civilization in the nineteenth, as demonic possession and zombis during the American occupation, as horror-film material in the 1980s. The careful ethnographies of Herskovits, Métraux, Deren and others were written against that backdrop and marked by it.

Dubois surveys four works from the 1990s that register a shift, among them Cosentino's museum catalogue on Vodou's sacred arts and collections on Afro-Atlantic religion more broadly. He gives most attention to Joan Dayan's Haiti, History and the Gods, which reads possession as a form of historical memory: Dessalines returning as the lwa Ogou Dessaline, and Ezili — the pale, French-speaking Freda beside the black, voiceless, violent Dantò — as a medium for the sexual and racial domination the colony produced. Taken together, these books make the case for treating religion and history as a single problem.

Beyond "Identity"

Brubaker and Cooper · 2000 · Theory and Society 29(1), 1-47

Taking a line from Orwell about surrendering to words, Brubaker and Cooper argue that the social sciences have done exactly that with identity.

Journal article

Taking a line from Orwell about surrendering to words, Brubaker and Cooper argue that the social sciences have done exactly that with identity. The term means too much when used strongly, too little when used weakly, and often nothing at all, and the confusion carries intellectual and political costs.

The constructivist rescue is no help either. Calling identities made, shifting and plural, so as to acquit the word of essentialism, leaves no reason to keep it, and no way to account for self-understandings that harden, for categories imposed coercively from outside, or for the singular belonging that identity politics actually seeks.

They propose dividing the work among plainer terms: identification and categorization for what people and institutions do to themselves and each other; self-understanding and social location for the situated sense a person has of where they stand and what that disposes them to do; and commonality, connectedness and groupness for the felt cohesion of a group.

The Army of Sufferers : peasant democracy in the early Republic of Haiti

Sheller · 2000 · New West Indian Guide / Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 74(1-2), 33-55

DOI · Journal article

Sheller looks at how Haitians argued about popular participation in political life, centering on the Liberal Revolution of 1843 and, the year after, the Piquet Rebellion.

The liberal challenge to President Boyer's regime opened room that a peasant movement moved into. The Piquets, who called themselves the Army of Sufferers, demanded civil and political rights for black Haitians.

Tracing the revolutionary situation of 1843 and 1844 through three phases, the article shows political actors inside Haiti weighing rival institutional and constitutional arrangements against one another.

White Jacobins/Black Jacobins: Bringing the Haitian and French Revolutions Together in the Classroom

Garrigus · 2000 · French Historical Studies 23(2), 259-275

Teaching the French Revolution means choosing what to leave out, and Saint-Domingue has usually been what gets left out. Garrigus argues the separation is artificial.

DOI · Journal article

Teaching the French Revolution means choosing what to leave out, and Saint-Domingue has usually been what gets left out. Garrigus argues the separation is artificial. A syllabus confined to the metropole cannot pose the question of who counted as French, which is precisely the question the colony forced.

The essay is deliberately practical. Assuming no instructor will add a book to an existing reading list, it points to accessible sources in English for teachers and students, supplies background, and suggests a lecture or two that could be reworked, with examples of colleagues who have built the Caribbean into the structure of a course rather than bolting it on at the end.

The rationale is that Haiti gives students the clearest case of nation and race being made rather than found: the first population outside Europe to throw off colonial rule, in a society whose divisions came out of the plantation itself.

Haitian Vodou, Church, State and Anthropology

Hurbon · 1999 · Anthropological Journal on European Cultures 8(2), 27-37

Two contradictions frame Hurbon's account. Vodou took shape under slavery and helped bring it down, yet independent Haiti banned it and both state and Catholic Church spent the following century persecuting it.

Journal article

Two contradictions frame Hurbon's account. Vodou took shape under slavery and helped bring it down, yet independent Haiti banned it and both state and Catholic Church spent the following century persecuting it. And when the elite finally acknowledged it in the 1930s as part of the national culture, the recognition was promptly exploited by a dictatorship that ran from 1957 to 1986.

Ritual and possession cannot be understood apart from that political history, which is also why the elite could not treat Vodou as a religion at all. What emerged from the meeting of African and European practice is something he describes as a dialogue with the other carried on internally — a religion with no ambition to conquer. Undoing the prejudice adherents have absorbed about themselves will take open public debate rather than ethnography, and a state that protects belief without legislating on it.

The Riverside Shakespeare

Jowett and Evans · 1999 · The Modern Language Review 94(4), 1079

The edition opens with a long general introduction that sets the plays among the conditions which produced them.

DOI · Journal article

The edition opens with a long general introduction that sets the plays among the conditions which produced them. It begins with the thinness of the biographical record, Greene's sneer at an upstart player and Chettle's handsome retraction, and with the standing of a playwright as artisan rather than man of letters; then with the accidents of transmission, scripts owned outright by the company, half of them reaching print in garbled quartos, the rest gathered by Heminge and Condell in 1623.

From there it follows the reputation, from parity with Jonson and Fletcher through Dryden's praise to Johnson's preface of 1765, which rescued Shakespeare from the charge of untutored genius. Later sections take up the language and the loosening of the blank-verse line from end-stopped speech toward enjambment and feminine endings, the working of the imagery, the playhouse, and the genres, including late romances that verge on tragicomedy.

On the Origins of the Amazons of Dahomey

Alpern · 1998 · History in Africa 25, 9-25

The end of Dahomey's women soldiers is fixed with certainty: 4 November 1892, when they fought the French for the last time at the gates of Cana. Their beginning is not.

DOI · Journal article

The end of Dahomey's women soldiers is fixed with certainty: 4 November 1892, when they fought the French for the last time at the gates of Cana. Their beginning is not. Alpern observes that published guesses about the corps's founding stretch across more than two centuries, from the reign of Wegbaja to that of Glele.

Weighing the candidates, Alpern rules out both kings, while granting Wegbaja much the stronger claim. That claim rests on a tradition crediting him with the gbeto, a corps of elephant huntresses, together with the conjecture that this unit became the first body of women soldiers. Even the tradition wobbles: one version has him merely reorganizing huntresses who already existed, and another explanation holds simply that palace women supplied the king's table with game. Reports that he kept women as guards are unsourced or unprovable, and nobody has claimed he sent women into battle.
