PDF: ~/dev/rasin/data/sources/secondary_sources/annas_archive_new/nicholls-from-dessalines-to-duvalier.pdf Overview of This Source's Contribution Nicholls provides the most sustained intellectual history of Haitian political thought from independence through the early Duvalier years. The book's contribution is methodological as well as substantive: it insists on distinguishing race (African descent as a unifying national consciousness) from colour (phenotypic black/mulatto distinctions as a divisive political weapon). Each chapter traces how a specific era's political actors deployed, contested, or manipulated these two categories.
