About the book
A critical and passionate analysis by anthropologist Paul Farmer on how Haiti was systematically exploited and marginalized by the international community, especially the United States. Farmer examines structures of historical, political, and economic violence that perpetuate poverty and suffering among the Haitian people.
With a voice that combines academic rigor and moral indignation, Farmer questions development and charity narratives that mask Western responsibility. A work that invites us to rethink global power dynamics and our complicity in systems of oppression.
