Chapter

Vollmann reports from two places where violence had settled into routine. The first is Mogadishu during the American intervention, riding out at night with a Marine squad ordered to confiscate weapons from every faction impartially, led by a corporal who says the frightening thing is never knowing where the enemy is. A man from another platoon is shot on a street they had patrolled that afternoon; a newspaper clipping notes the United Nations withdrawing convoy protection a year later.

The second is the Muslim south of Thailand, where he tries to determine whether the separatist bands are fighting for Pattani and Islam or running extortion rackets, and finds the distinction will not stay put.

The method is deliberately unresolved. First-person narrative is broken up by flat transcripts, a provincial governor, a defector, schoolgirls, low-ranking policemen, an ageing separatist leader, set against each other rather than reconciled.

Chapter

Reporting, not theory, carries this volume. Vollmann travels through Cambodia and the Thai border zone in the years after the Vietnamese withdrawal, and his method is to let people account for their own violence and then set the accounts against each other.

In Phnom Penh he visits Tuol Sleng and the killing field at Choeung Ek, an amputee rehabilitation centre, and the mined road north to Battambang, where a provincial commander briefs him for an hour before he can ask a question and a commune committee meets beside a dugout roofed with logs to soak up shellfire. Across the frontier he tries to buy his way toward the Khmer Rouge and the logging money that sustains them, and hears from a brothel owner and a smuggler's sister why the movement was not, in their telling, so bad.

Japan's yakuza appear on the same terms: extortionists entirely convinced that they protect the weak.

Chapter

This volume distils the argument of the larger work into a numbered code. The principles, Vollmann explains in a prefatory apology, were extracted wherever possible word for word from the four theoretical volumes that precede it, and are offered as working rules rather than as an exact science of ethics.

The structure is that of a legal instrument. It begins with how to form a moral code, variations on the Golden Rule, and maxims addressed to murderers and tyrants, then runs through a long sequence on when violence is warranted, when it is not, and when it is inexcusable yet forgivable. Categories of self-defence extend from honour and race through homeland, ground, earth, animals and gender to defence against traitors and defence of revolution; a second section treats violence as policy, covering deterrence, retribution, revenge, punishment, obedience and sadism.

Each rule carries caveats, cross-references and worked examples, from Bernhard Goetz to the Talmud.

Book

Gilroy begins with a complaint about cultural studies. Its English formation borrowed from wider European traditions of thinking about culture in which racialised others figure only as things to be known and criticised, and its own histories seldom register how much they already owe to black cultural theory and to figures such as C. L. R. James and Stuart Hall. The motive he states for writing is to have black people recognised as agents with minds and an intellectual history.

Against nationalism and ethnic absolutism on every side -- the belief in cultural purity, the picture of black Britain as two intact communities colliding -- he offers units of analysis lodged between the local and the global, chief among them diaspora.

The ship is his organising figure: not an emblem of the triangular trade but a moving site of dissent and cultural production that links ports, recalls the middle passage, and unsettles where modernity is thought to begin.

The Butterfly's Way: Voices from the Haitian Dyaspora in the United States

Danticat · 2003

Danticat gathers writing by Haitians in the United States, arranged in five movements: childhood, migration, the half or first generation, return, and the future.

Book

Danticat gathers writing by Haitians in the United States, arranged in five movements: childhood, migration, the half or first generation, return, and the future. The contributors write about lives split between two countries, sometimes plainly, sometimes with a haunted edge.

The range is wide. Jean-Robert Cadet recalls a Port-au-Prince childhood spent as a restavek, enslaved in a household; Dany Laferriere remembers a boyhood in Petit-Goave with the grandmother he adored; Marie Helene Laforest describes discovering that the whiteness she had in Haiti became blackness in the United States. Others write about a detained refugee whose one wish is a red dress and the dignity it stands for, about alienation, about marrying across the color line, and about the frustrations of helping, including the visitors who take more from Haiti than they leave behind.

What holds the collection together is the divided self of the emigrant, turned over from many angles.

The Presence of Vodou in New York City: The Impact of a Caribbean Religion on the Creolization of a Metropolis

Schmidt · 2003 · Matatu 27(1), 213-234

Schmidt uses the touring exhibition Sacred Arts of Haitian Vodou, which reached the American Museum of Natural History in 1998, as a mirror held up to New York rather than to Haiti.

DOI · Journal article

Schmidt uses the touring exhibition Sacred Arts of Haitian Vodou, which reached the American Museum of Natural History in 1998, as a mirror held up to New York rather than to Haiti. A museum shows what someone chose to show; what this one reflected, she argues, was the city's own idea of Vodou.

After working through the contested vocabulary of creole and creolization, she turns to fieldwork among Haitian New Yorkers. Temples go unregistered and are often tucked into basements and backyards, partly because of immigration status and mainly because of the religion's reputation. Practice adapts: ceremonies move indoors and onto weekends, a single priest may officiate, sometimes to recorded music, though initiates insist nothing essential has changed.

Interest in Caribbean drumming and dance meanwhile spreads well beyond Haitian circles into colleges and dance schools, and some outsiders eventually seek initiation. The music, Schmidt observes, is far easier for the city to accept than the practice.

Unsettling the Coloniality of Being/Power/Truth/Freedom: Towards the Human, After Man, Its Overrepresentation--An Argument

DOI · Journal article

Wynter's subject is a substitution. From the Renaissance onward, Europe replaced the Christian account of what a human being is with a secular one it called Man, first as the state's rational political subject and later a biological organism selected or dysselected by evolution, then presented this ethnoclass invention as the human as such.

Race, she argues, was made to do the work that distinctions between mortal and immortal, human and divine, had done for other societies. Lacking any bodily correlate, it grounded a new line between humans and those cast as barely human, and it was invented in the Caribbean and the Americas, where indigenous peoples and enslaved Africans became the physical referents of Man's Others.

The stakes are practical: the well-being of the Western and westernized middle classes is taken for that of the species. Working from Fanon's account of sociogeny, Wynter calls for a different description of the human, no longer written from that position.

Haiti's predatory republic: the unending transition to democracy

Book

Fatton's term for post-Duvalier Haiti is predatory democracy. The forms are in place — parties, associations, a free press, elections held with some regularity — but the actors have never agreed on rules for competing, and each faction believes only it is fit to govern.

What fills that vacancy is a fight over the small number of offices through which public power converts into private wealth. Rival wings of the Lavalas petite bourgeoisie pursue it with armed gangs; everyone with resources has built a security apparatus, so coercion is dispersed among private forces that may escape whoever created them. A negotiated transition protected members of the old dictatorial coalition and installed them where they could veto, leaving authoritarian habits inside the new order.

Appearances mislead, as the Creole proverb has it: Préval held the office while power stayed elsewhere. Fatton stops short of calling the arrangement sealed — opposition, press and peasant organisations still leave openings.

Rara! vodou, power, and performance in Haiti and its diaspora

McAlister · 2002

Each year Rara fills Haitian streets, and its marchers, who follow the Afro-Creole religion Vodou, make noise in public on purpose. McAlister reads the festival as political work rather than as spectacle alone.

Book

Each year Rara fills Haitian streets, and its marchers, who follow the Afro-Creole religion Vodou, make noise in public on purpose. McAlister reads the festival as political work rather than as spectacle alone.

Her account rests on ethnographic material she gathered herself. The bands, she shows, draw on two reservoirs of power, the Vodou spirits and the people who have died recently, and use them to send messages out into public hearing.

Those messages are coded rather than stated outright. Read closely, they carry claims about Haitian history, about relations between men and women, and about the ties binding Haiti to Haitians living abroad.

The Enslaved Healers of Eighteenth-Century Saint Domingue

Weaver · 2002 · Bulletin of the History of Medicine 76(3), 429-460

Weaver reconstructs a medical world in eighteenth-century Saint Domingue staffed largely by enslaved practitioners: herbalists, kaperlatas, hospitalières, infirmières, and accoucheuses.

Journal article

Weaver reconstructs a medical world in eighteenth-century Saint Domingue staffed largely by enslaved practitioners: herbalists, kaperlatas, hospitalières, infirmières, and accoucheuses. Out of Western, African, and Caribbean remedies they assembled a form of medicine particular to the island, and they treated both enslaved patients and the colony's white residents.

Trust ran along predictable lines. Enslaved people preferred the methods of the popular healers, herbalists and kaperlatas above all, whose care felt familiar to them. Poorer whites who could not pay for orthodox medicine, or wanted no part of it, consulted kaperlatas as well.

Others found the arrangement profitable. Plantation managers put the medical labor of enslaved women to work in ways that enriched the planters employing them and enriched the managers themselves. Licensed practitioners, for their part, drew on what enslaved herbalists knew about remedies, and in dealing with enslaved midwives sought to pull them further under the supervision of European medical men.

From c. 1790 to c. 1870

Flint, Fage, and Oliver (eds.) · 2001

The introduction to this volume argues that neither the European nor the Islamic vantage point will carry a history of Africa across these eighty years, since each illuminates only part of the continent.

Book

The introduction to this volume argues that neither the European nor the Islamic vantage point will carry a history of Africa across these eighty years, since each illuminates only part of the continent.

Its central move is over vocabulary. What later writers dismissed as tribalism, the editors argue, was nationality: loyalty to a common language and social order, often among millions of people, which in Europe would be called by that name. Asante, Zulu, Ganda and Hausa-Fulani are treated accordingly as nations, several of them mature well before 1790.

After that date something new appears — states that expanded by absorbing outsiders into the ruling group's language and religion rather than holding them as tributaries. Shaka's age regiments turned captured men into Zulu; in the Sokoto caliphate Islamic political thought displaced older Hausa loyalties. European example will not account for this, though European pressure told in the north. Long-distance trade, the editors suggest, is the likelier engine.

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.
