Whither Haiti?

Authors: Donald E. Schultz; ARMY WAR COLL STRATEGIC STUDIES INST CARLISLE BARRACKS PA
Abstract:
The author examines prospects for political stability, democratization, and socioeconomic development in Haiti, including obstacles that must still be overcome, and discusses in detail things that could go wrong. The author argues that, without a much greater willingness on the part of the United States and the international community to provide long-term security and socioeconomic aid, Haiti is unlikely to make a successful transition to a stable, democratic, economically modernizing nation. The author's conclusions are sobering, and his policy recommendations, in particular, deserve close scrutiny.
