This book provides new perspectives on Haiti's political economy since independence and demystifies major forces that shape Haiti today. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn addition to the controversial indemnity, Dupuy looks at how the United States supplanted France as the major power occupying Haiti from 1915-34 and influenced Haiti's economic and political development. Its policies and those imposed by international financial institutions transformed Haiti into the supplier of the lowest-paid labor, particularly in export assembly industries comprised mostly of women. In the present day, criminal gangs have plunged Haiti into an unprecedented political, economic, and security crisis since the assassination of Moïse, and Prime Minister Ariel Henri has called for foreign intervention to restore order.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlex Dupuy is John E.
