Description

Matthew J. Smith. 2009. Red & Black in Haiti: Radicalism, Conflict, and Political Change, 1934-1957. Chapel Hill: The University of North Carolina Press. 278 pp. ISBN: 978-0-8078-5937-7. Red & Black in Haiti details the way radical activists in Port-au-Prince shaped national politics by espousing different strands of nationalist, race- and class-based ideologies in the period between the exit of United States Marines from the country in 1934 and Frangois Duvalier's rise to power in 1957. Through various oral interviews and a close engagement with archival sources in Haiti, the United States, and France, Matthew J. Smith (2009) offers a narrative that avoids the pitfalls of previous studies that treat the period as "the postscript or prelude to studies of the occupation or Duvalier" (p. 2). Each of the book's five chapters, with the exception of one detailing the Revolution of 1946, corresponds to one of the three presidential administrations and the period of military rule between 1934 and 1957. Over the span of these political administrations, Smith argues, the radical movements opposing them became less ideologically unified, increasingly propelled by popular sectors, and more likely to use violence for political ends (p. xx).
