In the euphoria that followed the departure of Haiti's hated dictator, Jean-Claude Duvalier, most Haitian and foreign analysts treated the regimes of the two Duvaliers, father and son, as a historical nightmare created by the malevolent minds of the leaders and their supporters. Yet the crisis, economic and political, that faces this small Caribbean nation did not begin with the dictatorship, and is far from being solved, despite its departure from the scene. In this fascinating study, Haitian-born Michel-Rolph Trouillot examines the mechanisms through which the Duvaliers ruthlessly won and then held onto power for twenty-nine years. Trouillot's theoretical discussion focuses on the contradictory nature of the peripheral state, analyzing its relative autonomy as a manifestation of the growing disjuncture between state and nation. He discusses in detail two key characteristics of such regimes: the need for a rhetoric of "national unity" coupled with unbridled violence. At the same time, he traces the current crisis from its roots in the nineteenth-century marginalization of the peasantry through the U.S. occupation from 1915 to 1934 and into the present.He ends with a discussion of the post-Duvalier period, which, far from seeing the restoration of civilian-led democracy, has been a period of increasing violence and economic decline.

Throughout his career, the internationally renowned Haitian anthropologist Michel-Rolph Trouillot unsettled key concepts in anthropology, history, postcolonial studies, Black studies, Caribbean studies, and beyond. From his early critique of the West to the ongoing challenges he leveled at disciplinary and intellectual boundaries and formations, Trouillot centered the Caribbean as a site both foundational to the development of Western thought and critical to its undoing. Trouillot Remixed offers a representative cross section of his work that includes his most famous writings and lesser-known and harder-to-find texts essential to his oeuvre. Encouraging readers to engage with Trouillot's scholarship in new ways, this collection demonstrates the breadth of his writing, his enduring influence on Caribbean studies, and his relevance to politically engaged scholarship more broadly.

A new edition of Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s influential ethnography of a village in Dominica.Over thirty-five years ago, Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s debut ethnography, Peasants and Capital: Dominica in the World Economy, dared to regard peasants not as vestiges of premodern economies but as instrumental to, and integrated in, a capitalist world system. Combining historical ethnography with an intimate portrait of a banana-producing eastern Caribbean village, this multi-sited study demonstrates how multinational capital thrives on the surplus production of peasant cultivators. At the same time, it investigates how peasantries generate independent conceptions of value and subsistence in the process of building a new postcolonial state in Dominica. This new edition of Peasants and Capital invites anthropologists to revisit the methodological innovations of this multi-scalar study and readers to meditate on the continued vitality of peasant livelihoods in the Caribbean today.Ryan Cecil Jobson’s new introduction situates this edition in the context of Trouillot’s remarkable life and career. Jobson reminds us of the book’s enduring theoretical and ethnographic significance and asks us to consider how the entanglement of peasants from Dominica in national and world affairs has been impacted by more recent histories, such as the end of preferential markets for Caribbean bananas, the migration of “banana children” to regional and metropolitan urban centers, and the devastation of Dominica by Hurricane Maria.

Geschichte ist das Ergebnis von Macht, aber die Macht selbst ist nie so transparent, dass ihre Analyse uberflussig wurde. Das eigentliche Kenn-zeichen der Macht ist vielleicht ihre Unsichtbarkeit, die eigentliche Herausforderung die Offen-legung ihrer Wurzeln. Michel-Rolph TrouillotDer haitianische Historiker und Anthropologe Michel-Rolph Trouillot untersucht, wie Macht dynamiken, oft unsichtbar, die Geschichtsschreibung beeinflussen und das kollektive Gedachtnis von Gesellschaften formen. Dieses Buch ist ein Instrument der Emanzipation. Es untersucht die Orte, an denen Geschichte produziert wird: Museen, Archive, Schulen, Universitaten, Medien. Und es zeigt, wie sich die heutigen Formen der Herrschaft auf parteiische historische Konstruktionen stutzen. Die deutsche Erstausgabe von Silencing the Past ist eine Einladung dazu, die Geschichte von ihren Verschweigungen her neu zu lesen. Unsere Denkweisen zu entkolonisieren. Die Welt neu zu gestalten, indem wir jenen zuhoren, die diese Welt versucht hat auszuloschen. Raoul PeckAus dem Englischen von Michael SchiffmannDas Originalausgabe erschien 1995 unter dem Titel "e;Silencing the Past. Power and the Production of History"e; in den USA.
