Description:
In The Unfinished Revolution, Salt examines post-revolutionary (and contemporary) sovereignty in Haiti, noting the many international responses to the arrival of a nation born from blood, fire and revolution. Using blackness as a lens, Salt charts the impact of Haiti's sovereignty--and its blackness--in the Atlantic world.
Review Quotes:
'The Unfinished Revolution offers a relevant look at post-independence Haiti. Readers will appreciate the host of figures and events Salt presents along with her thoughtful discussions of these "transnational representatives." The work will appeal to students and scholars interested in reflecting on what sovereignty means for a black nation during the Atlantic world period and beyond.'
