You can also look at the following books on Haiti.
-“Peasants and Poverty: A Study of Haiti “ by Swedish economist Mats Lundahl, on the interplay between population growth, agriculture and poverty in Haiti.
-”Haïti-République Dominicaine : Une île pour deux” by haitian geographer Jean-Marie Théodat, on the divergent paths of the 2 countries sharing the island of Hispaniola.

Chris – Thanks so much for the link. I wish there was a way to make this scholarly work more accessible, but so much of it has gated access, as Gabriel notes.
Great blog, too, by the way!
