Socio-Legal Problems in Rural Haitian Environment: A Major Cause of Haiti's Decadency

Since the triumph of a revolution against the fiercest colonialism and the most outrageous exploitation of France in 1804, Haiti has always made farming the basis of its economy to the point that Haitian legislator has always sought to create a legal framework to harmonize the relations between the different actors who intervene in this sector. However, despite the fertility of its agricultural space, the robustness and vitality of its peasantry, Haiti is increasingly facing agricultural self-insufficiency, food insecurity, and famine.

In this book, the author explains the causes of this paradox and proposes--after a systematic analysis of the phenomenon, including the most perverse behavior of Haitian elites on the political, social, and economic levels more especially during the last four decades--ways and means to enable Haiti to revitalize the key sector of its economy.
