Download or read book When the Hands Are Many written by Jennie M. Smith and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an ethnography that challenges standard approaches to understanding the poor and disempowered, Jennie M. Smith's descriptions of peasant activity change what constitutes a democratic society. Through their civil institutions and artistic expression, Haitian peasants, widely known as some of the world's most impoverished, politically disempowered, and illiterate citizens, debate the meanings of development, democracy, and the public good.Smith offers a historically grounded overview of how the Haitian state and certain foreign powers have sought to develop rural Haiti and relates how Haitian peasants have responded to such efforts through words and deeds. The author argues that songs called chante pwen serve as "melodic machetes," a tool with which the peasants make their voices heard in many social circumstances.When the Hands Are Many illustrates the philosophies, styles, and structures typical of social organization in rural Haiti with narrative portraits of peasant organizations engaged in agricultural work parties, business meetings, religious ceremonies, social service projects, song sessions, and other activities. Smith integrates these organizations' strengths into a new vision for social change and asks what must happen in Haiti and elsewhere to facilitate positive transformation in the world today.

Book Synopsis Factors Impacting Youth Development in Haiti by : Michael Justesen
Download or read book Factors Impacting Youth Development in Haiti written by Michael Justesen and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the 1.6 million Haitian youth aged 15-24, only 13 percent are content with their lives. More than half of 20-year-olds have not completed secondary education and nearly half of youth in the labor market are unemployed. This paper investigates protective and risk factors predisposing youth to positive and negative behaviors. These factors, including poverty, gender, education, labor market, migration, family, health, and violence, are examined by using statistics and probability models based on Haiti's first household living conditions survey. Key findings show that female youth need special attention because they are more likely than their male peers to drop out of school and to be unemployed or inactive. Role models, guidance, expectations, and contacts in the form of parents or household heads are decisive factors in keeping youth in school, and to some extent, in their finding employment. In addition, domestic migration has a negative impact on the probability of being unemployed or inactive (positive self-selection), while marriage, drug abuse, and domestic violence increase the probability of dropping out of school.
Download or read book Haitians written by Anthony V. Catanese and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1981 I was asked by some DePauw University students to serve as faculty adviser for a group planning to work in rural Haiti during the nearly month-long interim term. I accepted the offer for several reasons. I had enjoyed being the faculty adviser for two previous work projects in Guatemala and Jamaica. I had found the experience was educationally valuable for undergraduates, and I could use it to enhance classroom learning during the semester. In addition, the experience of living and working in a radically different environment was intellectually stimulating for me as a social scientist interested in welfare economics. Finally, because such volunteer projects were rare in the early 1980s, I realized the opportunity should not be passed up. It was a chance to see a part of the world I had heard of but knew little or nothing about except from accounts found in newspaper and magazine articles.
Book Synopsis The Legal, Political, Economic, and Socio-cultural Environment for Community-based Social Enterprise in Rural Haiti by : Damara C.. Miller
Download or read book The Legal, Political, Economic, and Socio-cultural Environment for Community-based Social Enterprise in Rural Haiti written by Damara C.. Miller and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project looks at the various legal, political, economic, and socio-cultural aspects of the environment that determine how conducive the environment is for the establishment of community-based social enterprises (CBSEs) in rural Haiti. This study identifies the factors hindering and supporting the establishment of CBSEs as experienced by Haitian rural residents from their own uniquely valuable perspective. Data is collected during 1) in-depth interviews with leaders and members of the Kokoyer based CBSE Organisation des Femmes pour l'Avancement de Kokoyer (OFAK) and 2) numerous interviews with other Trou Chouchou CBO leaders. The environment is not conducive for CBSEs for primarily legal and political insecurity reasons resulting from a poorly established rule of law. The most significant findings are the significance of NGOs in the development of rural areas and the highly valued yet limited cross-organizational collaboration of rural CBSEs.
Book Synopsis making poor haitians count by : Dorte Verner
Download or read book making poor haitians count written by Dorte Verner and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2008 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This paper analyzes poverty in Haiti based on the first Living Conditions Survey of 7,186 households covering the whole country and representative at the regional level. Using a USD1 a day extreme poverty line, the analysis reveals that 49 percent of Haitian households live in absolute poverty. Twenty, 56, and 58 percent of households in metropolitan, urban, and rural areas, respectively, are poor. At the regional level, poverty is especially extensive in the northeastern and northwestern regions. Access to assets such as education and infrastructure services is highly unequal and strongly correlated with poverty. Moreover, children in indigent households attain less education than children in nonpoor households. Controlling for individual and household characteristics, location, and region, living in a rural area does not by itself affect the probability of being poor. But in rural areas female headed households are more likely to experience poverty than male headed households. Domestic migration and education are both key factors that reduce the likelihood of falling into poverty. Employment is essential to improve livelihoods and both the farm and nonfarm sector play a key role.
