Résumé
Résumé :

Les proverbes et les traditions font parties intégrantes de la culture haïtienne. Ils servent de mode de transmission culturelle et de réponses aux aléas de la vie. Toutefois, au sein de ses fondements culturels se trouvent des éléments qui viennent amplifier la discrimination basée sur le genre déjà présente dans la vie courante. L’utilisation des proverbes vient ainsi dans de nombreux cas accentuer la domination masculine dans la société.

Résumé
Résumé :

This study interrogates the trope of the “tropical temptress” that dominated colonial print culture. Encoded in textual accounts reliant on this trope, it posits, is a subtextual fear of Black female agency. To excavate and rehabilitate the voices of women that have been both occluded and co-opted by the colonialist archive, it recognises a need to look beyond.

Résumé
Résumé :

In farming households in Haiti, women's critical role in maize production is underresearched yet vital to the growth of the sector. This article explores factors that may increase women's bargaining power in negotiated decisions about production practices and income use in male-headed households. We find that women's participation in market activities is positively associated with greater input on decisions related to maize production.

This is a report on the experience of implementing a mental health program in a maternity hospital and three mobile clinics in the city of Port-au-Prince.

Women's Judicial Representation in Haiti: Unintended Gains of State-Building Efforts

Résumé
Résumé :

Although women's representation in Haiti is generally very low, the number of women judges has increased since the demise of authoritarianism and violent conflict in the 1990s. This case study explores why. I find that “gender-neutral” judicial reforms aimed at strengthening the judiciary have done more for women's judicial representation than explicitly gender-targeted policies, which still lack implementation.
