The Haitian Dilemma: A Case Study In Demographics, Development, And U.s. Foreign Policy (Significant Issues (Hardcover))

The prolonged Haitian political and economic crisis, ongoing since the military overthrow of Jean-Bertrand Aristide in September 1991, has been a story of human suffering and societal decline. Despite more than two billion dollars of external support, including a US military intervention to restore Aristide to the presidency and a massive economic recovery aid programme, Haiti today is less stable politically and far more destitute economically than it was when Aristide was elected president.
