Résumé
Résumé :

This text explores the dynamics and complexities within familial groups in rural areas of Northern Haiti. Simpson states that the bonds within these families are not only relational but also based on participation in agricultural labour as well as religious practices. It discusses salient features of sexual and familial institutions in Northern Haiti. In addition to families established through legally recognized civil or ecclesiastic ceremonies, Simpson refers to a socially approved sexual and economic relationship between a man and a woman he calls placée.
