- Title
Navigating Haiti's History: Saint-Domingue and the Haitian Revolution.
- Authors
Taber, Robert D.
- Abstract
The decade since the bicentennial of Haiti's independence has seen an outpouring of scholarship on its history, particularly on the course and impacts of the Haitian Revolution, which transformed the Atlantic world's most productive colony into the Americas' second independent state and involved one of history's most successful slave rebellions. This new historical research builds upon a long, albeit scattered, historiography on Saint-Domingue (colonial Haiti) and the Haitian Revolution. Haiti's colonial and revolutionary history has important implications for understanding the development of plantation society, Haiti's connections with the USA and the rest of Latin America, and current policy debates ranging from land use to education.
