Desgranges turns the conch shell into a method. The Lambi model, with Haiti at the helm, offers a way of reading resistance and renewal and of tracing the temporal paths and ancestral practices that run through African Diaspora life.

Time and space work as crossing axes, marking out where questions of race, space, power, and freedom begin. The framework is assembled from the writing and activism of Jemima Pierre, Michel-Rolph Trouillot, and Edwidge Danticat, and it proceeds from an Antillean feminist standpoint.

The result is an account of Diaspora identity that moves fluidly rather than in fixed categories, with consequences for how being is described, how knowledge is understood, and how either might be taught.

A broken market: can increased access to broken rice decrease food insecurity in Haiti?

DOI · Journal article

Haiti buys roughly four-fifths of the rice it consumes from abroad and pays a premium for it. Import rules cap broken kernels at four percent, which pushes the country toward some of the costliest non-fragrant long grain rice anywhere — a strange position for a poor nation that depends on rice as a staple.

Richardson and colleagues test whether that standard matches what buyers actually want. A non-hypothetical field experiment in open-air markets, with three hundred observations, measured how shoppers priced rice containing more broken grains. Across locations and income groups, only the highest earners paid extra for a cleaner sample.

The authors read this as a signal to policymakers that consumers will accept rice above the four percent threshold. Since broken rice carries the same nutritional value and can be sourced more cheaply on world markets, they argue that relaxing the rule could ease food insecurity by offering an alternative to expensive domestic and imported grain.

African Traditional Religion and Christianity in the Formation of Vodun

Thornton · 2022 · Slavery & Abolition 43(4), 730-757

Thornton addresses a puzzle in Vodou and in a number of other African American religious traditions: how Catholic saints came to stand alongside deities drawn from Yoruba and Fon practice.

DOI · Journal article

Thornton addresses a puzzle in Vodou and in a number of other African American religious traditions: how Catholic saints came to stand alongside deities drawn from Yoruba and Fon practice.

Two claims carry the argument. The first is that the saints came primarily out of the Catholic Kingdom of Kongo. The second explains why it was the Yoruba-Fon gods in particular who joined them: most religions of Atlantic Africa attach their spirits to a specific place or people, but this tradition has deities that travel and whose authority can extend anywhere, which made them fit company for saints in a way other African deities were not.

Le Marronage et la révolte de 1791 : Le Cas de la plantation Bréda du Haut-du-Cap

Girard · 2022 · Journal of Haitian Studies 28(2), 98-121

Girard reads the papers of a single estate, the Bréda plantation at Haut-du-Cap, and finds that flight from it was roughly ten times more common than the runaway notices in the colonial press would indicate.

DOI · Journal article

Girard reads the papers of a single estate, the Bréda plantation at Haut-du-Cap, and finds that flight from it was roughly ten times more common than the runaway notices in the colonial press would indicate.

The gap is widest for collective departures, the temporary walkouts long dismissed as something less than real marronage. These show up neither in the newspapers nor in the plantation's accounting records, yet on this estate they were both the most frequent form of flight and the one most likely to succeed.

If other plantation studies turn up the same pattern, Girard suggests, the long-running Debien-Fouchard argument about the links between marronage and the revolt of 1791 would need rethinking. His proposal is to set aside the division between small and large marronage and look instead at group flight, whose revolutionary potential has been undervalued.

Leonora Sansay's Secret History of Land Crabs

Campbell · 2022 · Early American Literature 57(2), 469-493,658

Journal article

Campbell builds an essay around one odd episode — crabs swarming ashore — in Leonora Sansay's Secret History; or, The Horrors of St. Domingo of 1808. The reading follows the crustacean backward into eighteenth-century natural history, where writers on the natural world had already loaded the animal with meaning about slavery, and specifically about the threat that enslaved people were thought to pose to European colonization.

Taken as an emblem rather than a stray detail, the swarm lets Sansay do two things at once: register American alarm at the Haitian Revolution and take the edge off that alarm by rendering it in the cool, classifying idiom of science.

Campbell treats the episode as evidence for a wider claim about the period's fiction — that political commentary often sits inside borrowed scientific description, and that early American literary study has something to gain from reading natural history alongside the novels.

DOI · Journal article

Escape from slavery, marronnage, ran across centuries in Haiti, and Eddins treats it as an answer to the plantation, a system built, in Sylvia Wynter's terms, to deny people their humanity, cut their social and cultural bonds, and turn them and their labour into goods.

Alongside arguments by Cedric Robinson, Wynter, and Jean Casimir, the article makes marronnage a form of anti-capitalist resistance, political criticism, and organizing from below. In fleeing, enslaved people repossessed themselves and what enslavers had taken: their hours, relationships, knowledge, and skills. Reclaiming those things undercut colonial structures and helped bring down first Spanish and then French slaveries on the island.

Africa-born rebels and maroons stood at the center of the mobilizing that abolished slavery and ended colonial rule between 1791 and 1804. Afterward, as the new government copied parts of colonial administration, the formerly enslaved built communal arrangements around subsistence and kin and kept using marronnage to protest, exposing the limits of Haiti's own states.

Phantom state in Haiti: criminal sovereignty and the mercenary remedy

Niño and González · 2022 · Trends in Organized Crime

Niño and González use process tracing to ask what motivated the hiring of mercenaries to remove Haiti's increasingly authoritarian president.

DOI · Journal article

Niño and González use process tracing to ask what motivated the hiring of mercenaries to remove Haiti's increasingly authoritarian president. Tracing that question back through the country's history, they map the points at which crime and political institutions grew into one another.

What they describe is a phantom state: a political structure that exists in name but has been supplanted in practice, its authority contested by rival groups until state presence became limited, fragmented, delegated, and authoritarian. Force is no longer the state's alone; it is parceled out among competing oligopolies of violence, with state institutions serving as machinery for criminal organizations to hold territory and take profit.

On this account Jovenel Moïse had allied his government with the strongest gangs while weakening political groups and criminal rivals, and the mercenaries became the instrument for breaking that grip. The killing, the authors conclude, followed a plan by political leaders acting with judicial complicity to check the concentration of executive power.

The Political Project of Marie Sainte Dédée Bazile (Défilée): Reappropriating This Heritage to Build the Present

Lamour · 2022 · Journal of Haitian Studies 28(1), 62-81

When Dessalines was assassinated in 1806 and his body left in the street, a woman gathered the remains and saw them decently buried.

DOI · Journal article

When Dessalines was assassinated in 1806 and his body left in the street, a woman gathered the remains and saw them decently buried. Haitian history has kept the story while stripping it of meaning, filing Marie Sainte Dedee Bazile under madness rather than politics.

Lamour reads the act as a deliberate intervention and the erasure as typical. Women enter Haitian historiography in footnotes, defined by the men they were attached to, remembered through nicknames and anecdotes; the founding generation is all fathers, with no corresponding mothers of the nation. She places her work alongside recent efforts to recover what has been pushed aside, from an early thesis on Haitian women to studies of women in the Caco movement and to novelists and artists reworking the national epic.

The present is part of the argument. In 2020, mourners for the dead of La Saline gathered under a call to repeat Defilee's gesture, which is Lamour's evidence that the inheritance remains usable.

A secret brotherhood? The question of black Freemasonry before and after the Haitian Revolution

Garrigus · 2021 · Routledge eBooks

Late colonial Saint-Domingue was among the most heavily masonic societies anywhere, and it produced the only successful slave revolution, so the temptation to connect the two has been hard to resist.

DOI · Journal article

Late colonial Saint-Domingue was among the most heavily masonic societies anywhere, and it produced the only successful slave revolution, so the temptation to connect the two has been hard to resist. One biographer builds a conspiracy on it, imagining lodge ties between the future Toussaint Louverture and the royalist planters said to have put him up to the rising of 1791.

The evidence usually cited is a signature. Toussaint and roughly three hundred other men, white and of color, marked their names with a distinctive arrangement of dots. Garrigus went looking for those men in the records of actual lodges and found almost nothing, a result that also obliges him to revise his own earlier conclusion about a supposed hidden lodge at Aquin.

His suggestion is that the mark was aspirational: men used it to imply membership in brotherhoods that did not exist, which says more about the prestige of secrecy than about how the revolution was organized.

Between Intersectionality and Coloniality: Rereading the Figure of the Poto-Mitan Woman in Haiti

Lamour · 2021 · Women, Gender, and Families of Color 9(2), 136-151

Lamour reads the Haitian poto-mitan woman, the one who serves as a central pillar, as a figure with a colonial history rather than a timeless cultural type.

DOI · Journal article

Lamour reads the Haitian poto-mitan woman, the one who serves as a central pillar, as a figure with a colonial history rather than a timeless cultural type. Intersectionality and coloniality supply the analytic tools.

Colonial rule and the relations that outlived slavery, in this account, formed and reproduced one another, setting up arrangements of power that still run through Haiti and that tie personal life to national and global forces. One effect is that the labour of poto-mitan women is routinely cast as something deviant.

By putting the figure back into time, Lamour shows how familiar ways of describing it lay claim to the bodies and the hours of women who are handed the work of supporting and protecting everyone else.

Lòk: Pandemics and (Im)mobility in Northern Haiti

Bulamah · 2021 · Global Perspectives 2(1), 29939

News of an unfamiliar respiratory illness reached rural northern Haiti first through relatives abroad, then spread across radio broadcasts, messaging apps, and talk in markets and neighborhoods.

DOI · Journal article

News of an unfamiliar respiratory illness reached rural northern Haiti first through relatives abroad, then spread across radio broadcasts, messaging apps, and talk in markets and neighborhoods. Bulamah notes that when advice about keeping apart arrived, few doubted it would work; what they doubted was that any of this was new. He sets COVID-19 against a longer local record of epidemics, asking how that experience shaped what people expected.

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and on conversations with Haitian friends during the outbreak, the article treats the stillness the pandemic imposed as a sharpening of something already there, a blocked political and existential condition named lòk. Against that stagnation, Bulamah traces a popular epidemiology built around the lakou, the household, through which people made sense of the virus and lived with it.

The closing move is conceptual. Movement itself, he suggests, works as a form of vitality, generating and ordering life even under conditions of severe uncertainty.

Social Origins of Dictatorships: Elite Networks and Political Transitions in Haiti

Naidu, Robinson, and Young · 2021 · American Political Science Review 115(3), 900-916

Accounts of why elites overthrow democracies usually turn on interest: how much a given elite loses under democratic rule and gains under a dictatorship. Naidu, Robinson and Young add a second variable.

DOI · Journal article

Accounts of why elites overthrow democracies usually turn on interest: how much a given elite loses under democratic rule and gains under a dictatorship. Naidu, Robinson and Young add a second variable. Even among people with identical interests, they argue, some are better placed than others to make a coup succeed, and position here means position in a social network.

Their model treats coups as generating rents and predicts that the more central a family sits in the elite network, the likelier it is to join. To test this they built a dataset of Haitian elite social ties and matched it against firm-level records for import businesses.

Central families, they find, were disproportionately involved in the 1991 overthrow of the democratic Aristide government. Afterward, retail prices rose faster for the staple goods those families imported, and children born in the cities during the years without democracy show worse health outcomes.

Sounding the African Atlantic

DOI · Journal article

De Luna makes a case for treating single words as historical evidence, arguing that the intellectual life of enslaved Africans can be reached through the sounds and etymologies of the terms they used. Since the colonial archive preserves so little of what captive people thought, she borrows the comparative linguistics that Africanist historians developed for oral societies.

Four episodes from eighteenth-century Saint-Domingue carry the argument: the contested name of the healer and poisoner Makandal; the Kongo vocabulary the planter Baudry des Lozières compiled from newly arrived captives, read for what they chose to teach him about hearing and being heard; the term mundélé, built from a word for cloth, by which West-Central Africans classified Europeans; and the overlap in sound of loi, lwa and roi.

Long histories of multilingualism and convergence among related African languages, she argues, gave enslaved people terms pliant enough to debate in across language boundaries.

The Materiality of the Haitian Revolution in the Atlantic World

White · 2021 · Transactions of the American Philosophical Society 109(5), 85-102

The American and French revolutions generated a flood of celebratory objects: printed ceramics and textiles, cockades, medallions, engravings of heroes.

Journal article

The American and French revolutions generated a flood of celebratory objects: printed ceramics and textiles, cockades, medallions, engravings of heroes. Almost nothing comparable was made for the Haitian Revolution, and White takes that absence as her starting point.

Part of the explanation is structural. A colony organized around plantation labour had neither market nor workshops for such goods, and most images circulating in the Atlantic world were produced by white observers rather than by the people who made the revolution. What those observers fixed on was violence, and violence read in racial terms, which gave the Saint-Domingue war a charge that prints of the guillotine never carried.

White examines how that violence was rendered in objects, alongside a few works imagining something else, including a painting Rush proposed and a wax tableau by Davenport and Bishop. Both proved too much for white audiences. Material culture, she argues, narrowed the revolution more sharply than texts did.

Toward a Decentralized Haitian State: The Promises and Shortcomings of the Post-Duvalier Constitution of 1987

Deane · 2021 · Journal of Haitian Studies 27(1), 38-64

The Constitution Haiti adopted in 1987, a year after Jean-Claude Duvalier fled and twenty-nine years of dictatorship ended, called for decentralizing the state.

DOI · Journal article

The Constitution Haiti adopted in 1987, a year after Jean-Claude Duvalier fled and twenty-nine years of dictatorship ended, called for decentralizing the state. Deane finds the country no nearer that goal now than it was then.

Only parts of the decentralizing framework were ever put in place, and the resulting administrative holes have hardened into a political impasse. Instead of shared power across levels of government and wider inclusion, which the drafters intended, those gaps have propped up autocratic rule that outlived the dictator's departure.

Drawing on in-depth semistructured interviews with experts and on content analysis, and offered as the first thorough study of post-Duvalier decentralization efforts, the paper identifies the institutional obstacles blocking better public services and genuine citizen participation. It also traces how and why officials at the center keep limiting what decentralization might do for local development and subnational governance.
