Alex Dupuy's groundbreaking book offers a critical reevaluation of the Haitian Revolution and its aftermath. He examines the French colonial context of Saint-Domingue and Haiti, assessing the revolution's achievements and limitations, as well as the divisions within the Haitian ruling class that hindered meaningful economic and political development. Dupuy challenges the notion that slavery is the root of modern capitalism and refutes the claim that Hegel's master-slave dialectic was influenced by the Haitian Revolution. He also explores the consequences of new class and color divisions after independence and convincingly explains why Haiti chose to pay an indemnity to France in exchange for its recognition of Haitian independence. Through his insightful analysis of race, class, and slavery, Dupuy provides a robust theoretical framework for understanding these critical themes.
