In the humanities, the term 'diaspora' recently emerged as a promising and powerful heuristic concept. It challenged traditional ways of thinking and invited reconsiderations of theoretical assumptions about the unfolding of cross-cultural and multi-ethnic societies, about power relations, frontiers and boundaries, about cultural transmission, communication and translation. The present collection of essays by renowned writers and scholars addresses these issues and helps to ground the ongoing debate about the African diaspora in a more solid theoretical framework. Part I is dedicated to a general discussion of the concept of African diaspora, its origins and historical development. Part II examines the complex cultural dimensions of African diasporas in relation to significant sites and figures, including the modes and modalities of creative expression from the perspective of both artists/writers and their audiences; finally, Part III focusses on the resources (collections and archives) and iconographies that are available today. As most authors argue, the African diaspora should not be seen merely as a historical phenomenon, but also as an idea or ideology and an object of representation. By exploring this new ground, the essays assembled here provide important new insights for scholars in American and African-American Studies, Cultural Studies, Ethnic Studies, and African Studies. The collection is rounded off by an annotated listing of black autobiographies.

Despite Haiti's proximity to the United States, and its considerable importance to our own history, Haiti barely registered in the historic consciousness of most Americans until recently. Those who struggled to understand Haiti's suffering in the earthquake of 2010 often spoke of it as the poorest country in the Western hemisphere, but could not explain how it came to be so. In recent years, the amount of scholarship about the island has increased dramatically. Whereas once this scholarship was focused on Haiti's political or military leaders, now the historiography of Haiti features lively debates and different schools of thought. Even as this body of knowledge has developed, it has been hard for students to grasp its various strands. Haitian History presents the best of the recent articles on Haitian history, by both Haitian and foreign scholars, moving from colonial Saint Domingue to the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake. It will be the go-to one-volume introduction to the field of Haitian history, helping to explain how the promise of the Haitian Revolution dissipated, and presenting the major debates and questions in the field today.

Twelve scholars representing a variety of academic fields contribute to this study of slavery in the French Caribbean colonies, which ranges historically from the 1770s to Haiti's declaration of independent statehood in 1804. Including essays on the impact of colonial slavery on France, the United States, and the French West Indies, this collection focuses on the events, causes, and effects of violent slave rebellions that occurred in Saint-Domingue, Guadeloupe, and Martinique. In one of the few studies to examine the Caribbean revolts and their legacy from a U.S. perspective, the contributors discuss the flight of island refugees to the southern cities of New Orleans, Savannah, Charleston, Norfolk, and Baltimore that branded the lower United States as "the extremity of Caribbean culture." Based on official records and public documents, historical research, literary works, and personal accounts, these essays present a detailed view of the lives of those who experienced this period of rebellion and change.

Haiti is a failing state. The country is still unable to provide basic needs such as employment, food, housing, healthcare and education to a majority of its inhabitants in over two centuries after its revolution and Independence of 1804. Relatively incompetent, both the nation’s government and its opposition ignore moral politics, and instead, focus on corruption and fighting each other. Though free from French rule, the country remains tied to its slave past and violent history. It seems like a socioeconomic and urban consensus cannot be achieved in order to carry out sustainable solutions for the people. This book, From Revolution to Chaos in Haiti, 1804-2019: Urban Problems and Redevelopment Straregies, is an attempt to analyze this situation from a historical perspective. First, the Haitian Revolution of 1804 is displayed to show the violent and bloody struggles of outstanding leaders and warriors against colonial powers for the making of a great political and independent nation. Second, Haiti’s decline is analyzed starting from the assassination of its first leader, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, in 1806 to the country’s bottom rank in the global stratification during the 2010’s along with the impact of the catastrophic 2010 earthquake. The main factors noted within this decline are linguistic, agricultural, urban and (HIV, AIDS, TB) healthcare issues and undercapitalization along with ideological confusions (capitalism, neoliberalism, socialism, social democracy) and political instability.

This book examines the ways in which a minority of primarily white, male, French philanthropists used their social standing and talents to improve the lives of peoples of African descent in Saint-Domingue during the crucial period of the Haitian Revolution. They went to great lengths to advocate for the application of universal human rights through political activities, academic societies, religious charity, influence on public opinion, and fraternity in the armed services. The motives for their benevolence ran the gamut from genuine altruism to the selfish pursuit of prestige, which could, on occasion, lead to political or economic benefit from aiding blacks and people of color. This book offers a view that takes into account the efforts of all peoples who worked to end slavery and establish racial equality in Saint-Domingue and challenges simplistic notions of the Haitian Revolution, which lean too heavily on an assumed strict racial divide between black and white.

Le 16 Pluviôse an II-4 février 1794 la Convention vote l'émancipation des Noirs dans toutes les colonies françaises, c'est-à-dire leur droit à la liberté et à la citoyenneté. Bien qu'étant la première abolition dans l'histoire du monde, et la seule à s'être avérée inconditionnelle, elle a été presque systématiquement dénigrée. Elle aurait été votée pour des raisons circonstancielles par une minorité de députés, eux-mêmes peu enthousiastes. A partir des nombreux documents produits par l'immense " révolution du papier " née en 1789, journaux, brochures, - mais aussi archives de gouvernement ou de police - cet ouvrage montre que le retard - très relatif en comparaison de celui d'autres abolitions - mis à appliquer des principes proclamés universels (droit des esclaves à la liberté et droit des mulâtres à l'égalité avec les blancs) - s'explique essentiellement par les contradictions qui parsèment la Révolution lesquelles soulignent pendant ces 4 ans et demi le facteur idéologique de défense du droit naturel. Ainsi le décret du 15 mai 1791, dont les historiens ont systématiquement surévalué les limites, constitue à la fois l'aboutissement et le point de départ de mouvements de solidarité avec les Noirs. De 1789 à 1791, les Amis des Noirs, - essentiellement les futurs Girondins -, Brissot, Clavière, Lanthenas, Pétion, Mirabeau, sensibilisent l'opinion avec vigilance et arguments très appuyés, mais qui souffriront des apostasies ou abandons successifs de figures prestigieuses telles que les Lameth, Lafayette, Sieyes, Duport. Au contraire d'une idée reçue des pamphlets antiesclavagistes thermidoriens, le mouvement comprend aussi à partir de 1791 nombre de futurs montagnards. Ainsi à l'annonce de l'insurrection de Saint-Domingue, des patriotes clament la convergence des deux révolutions, métropolitaine et coloniale. Ils ont pour nom Chaumette, Marat, Dubois-Crancé, Merlin de Thionville, Brival, Lequinio. L'abbé Grégoire et le journaliste Milscent sont aussi de grandes figures de cette abolition ; après avoir été proches en 1791 des Girondins ils se rapprochent en 1793 des Montagnards dans cette radicalisation. De son côté, de mai 1791 à juillet 1794 Robespierre a gardé une cohérence anti-colon comme le montre son avant-dernier rapport inédit. Tous, Girondins, Montagnards et Thermidoriens revendiquèrent un certain anticolonialisme qui, tout en récusant la plupart du temps l'indépendance des colonies, défendait le droit du premier occupant, le mulâtre dans les îles, le Noir en Afrique. Ce continent, il était hors de question pour ces abolitionnistes d'aller le conquérir comme le souhaitaient les colons blancs, comme substitut à l'émancipation.
