- Title
International Concern for Haitians in the Diaspora.
- Authors
Miller, Jake C.
- Abstract
Because of economic and political conditions in Haiti during the last quarter of the Twentieth Century, many Haitians sought refuge or work in nearby countries. While some entered these countries legally, most entered or sought to enter by non-traditional means. Both the danger they risked in attempting to reach a "better land", and their receptions upon arrival have been the concern of the international community. This paper is an assessment of the international response to Haitians in the United States, Dominican Republic and Bahamas Islands, who have been the victims, or alleged victims of discrimination because of race or nationality.
