About this product

Product Information

This book traces the rise and fall of Jean-Bertrand Aristide twice removed president of Haiti, one time priest and champion of the poor, and exiled authoritarian leader whose failed claim to power galvanized world politics. Centered on his political career, the book explores power and hierarchy in the capitalist world-system, as different political actors use them to achieve their objectives. Alex Dupuy offers a thought-provoking critique of a system that maintains the dominance of core powers and international institutions - the UN, the OAS, the World Bank, IMF, IADB - over peripheral societies, particularly social forces struggling for and against social change in small, underdeveloped, dependent, and impoverished countries like Haiti.

Reviews
A meticulously researched text. . . . The Prophet and Power is a key source for understanding the intricate set of factors that contributed to the dynamics of this turbulent period and an important contribution to Haitian and Caribbean studies., Dupuy, a recognized authority on Haiti, tracks the island's troubled transition to democracy up to the present. . . . This is well-written: an important book with a clear theoretical orientation. Highly recommended., An important, original, and comprehensive contribution to the literature on contemporary Haitian politics in particular, and on democratization and globalization in general. Dupuy elucidates with intelligence the Aristide phenomenon and does an excellent job in showing how both domestic and international forces intersected to generate the current crisis.
