En Haïti, comme dans beaucoup d'autres pays du monde, les femmes mènent une lutte quotidienne pour leur indépendance économique. Un combat difficile pour les organisations de femmes qui demandent des changements en leur faveur dans le fonctionnement de l'Etat. En quoi consiste l'autonomisation économique des femmes ? Qu'exige-t-elle, et quelles sont les initiatives pour y parvenir en Haïti ?

Most books and stories written about the Haitian revolution mainly focus on the men that fought in that war and almost never mention the valuable contributions of women during that period. Women played major roles in the fight against the invasion of Ayiti by European slavers since the late 15 th century all the way up to the creation of the First Independent Black Nation in the Western Hemisphere in 1804.

This article examines the gendered political geography of postcolonial Haiti. It draws from the author's long-term ethnographic fieldwork with the Mouvman Peyizan Papay (MPP), a peasants' movement established in 1973, to highlight the experience of rural women on Haiti's high Central Plateau. It mobilizes foundational work in feminist geography to address a lack of attention to the political in analyses of gender and rural life in Haiti.

Le texte examine l'évolution des conceptions de la citoyenneté et leur relation avec le féminisme. Il commence par présenter les théories de penseurs libéraux comme Locke, Mill et Rousseau, qui excluaient généralement les femmes de la pleine citoyenneté. Ensuite, il aborde la théorie de la citoyenneté de T.H. Marshall, divisée en droits civils, politiques et sociaux, critiquée pour son évolutionnisme et son anglocentrisme.

Haitian women and girls began last year bereaved, traumatized, injured and displaced by the January 12, 2010 earthquake.
