"Damming the Flood is an excellent book, the best study of its kind.” Paul Farmer

“A marvelous book” Noam Chomsky

Damming the Flood: Haiti, Aristide and the Politics of Containment is the book that the Haiti solidarity movement, and anyone who has looked critically at the relationship between Haiti and powerful countries, has been waiting for. It is meticulously researched, with ample citations to the mainstream press, human rights reports, and Haiti experts from many countries and political perspectives. It is destined to be a key reference for progressives writing, speaking or learning about Haiti.
