The Era of Military Coups D 'Etat
This book presents a detailed story on each military coup detat that occurred in Haiti from February 1986 to September 1991. In fact, it describes the political spectrum that reigned in Haiti after the departure of President Jean-Claude Duvalier. The epoch that succeeded the fall of the Duvaliers from power was one of the most ambiguous periods in the history of Haiti founded by Generalissimo Jean-Jacques Dessalines the Great, in 1804. Dessalines, as GENERAL-IN-CHIEF of the Haitian Indigenous army, became the first of the nations Heads-of-state to be overthrown by a military coup detat, in October 17, 1806. Since then, most of the nations Chiefs-of-state assumed power through revolutions, or...
Fault Lines
Beverly Bell, an activist and award-winning writer, has dedicated her life to working for democracy, women's rights, and economic justice in Haiti and elsewhere. Since the 7.0 magnitude earthquake of January 12, 2010, that struck the island nation, killing more than a quarter-million people and leaving another two million Haitians homeless, Bell has spent much of her time in Haiti. Her new book, Fault Lines, is a searing account of the first year after the earthquake. Bell explores how strong communities and an age-old gift culture have helped Haitians survive in the wake of an unimaginable disaster, one that only compounded the preexisting social and economic distress of their society. The ...
The Call/ the Fall of Humankind
The Call is the archetype of 'the Iliad by Homer'; except, here, Ligonde dares go where no other mind has gone before. As has said Stephen Hawking in his book 'a brief history of time' The Church dislikes the idea of anyone going before or beyond the 'big bang' creation especially astrophysicists. Since, humans were limping before, then, Ligonde trek with them, back and forth in space/time, left them to proceed into 'the Quantum slipstream' beyond the Heavens near 'The Continuum' in this journey to see God! Unlike 'The Iliad' and 'The Inferno', 'The Call by Ligonde' is not fixated in one specific space/time or location on this blue, beautiful, bountiful planet Earth we dwell on; Instead, 'Th...

State Failure, Underdevelopment, and Foreign Intervention in Haiti
Failed states are a huge problem in international relations, threatening world order in a number of ways. Conflicts in failed states often spill unto neighbouring states, failed states make for unreliable partners in the resolution of global social problems such as poverty and AIDS, and failed states magnify the effects of natural disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes. In response to the multiple threats posed by failed states, working states, sometimes acting alone sometimes in concert with others, have undertaken military operations, often under the rubric of humanitarian intervention. This book is a historical study of state failure, underdevelopment and foreign intervention in lig...
Just Because I'm Black
The author, Sully Grand-Jean, points out in his works that racism continues and Jim Crow and other discriminatory measures increased as the number of black literary works grow towards the end of the 20th century. The authors writing is, therefore, of great social and historical importance in understanding the African-American experience in the nineteenth and twentieth century. Author Grand Jean has unique and insightful verses that testifies to an evolving awareness as a man of color; from child to young man, from nave to seasoned civil rights activist, and from son to father. Frequently, the authors poetry expresses strong racial pride and respect for family. His informal style makes his work accessible to both adults and children as he reveals the past, present, and future as written in the good book, Holy Bible. V. Rucker, MEd
