Produktbeschreibung

Politics, Gangs, and Vodou: Haiti's Struggle for Democracy and Human Rights is a sweeping exploration of Haiti's past, its present, and the forces that shape its uncertain future. Political power, cultural identity, and spiritual tradition converge here-sometimes to build, too often to break. This book is both a map and a mirror:A map for those seeking to understand Haiti's journey from revolution to the present-and the road toward a just tomorrow. A mirror for Haitians and global citizens alike, reflecting hard questions: Who truly governs? What invisible hands shape our future? How can democracy survive alongside fear and deep-rooted social, economic, and educational injustice? Politics, Gangs, and Vodou speaks to youth, reformers, and allies-anyone who believes democracy is more than elections, that it is a living culture of justice, participation, and moral courage. This book is a gripping journey into Haiti's soul-where history, spiritual belief, the Haitian basic personality and power collide, and the fight for democracy burns on.
