Louis Déjoie Jr.
was a Haitian presidential candidate in the 1987 election field, carrying the generational weight of one of the most loaded surnames in twentieth-century Haitian politics. He was the son of Louis Déjoie, whose 1957 contest with François Duvalier anchored the moment when Haiti entered its thirty-year family dictatorship. The son's candidacy in 1987 placed both men at either end of the Duvalierist era — the father at its opening, the son at its stillborn close.
