A Sri Lankan peacekeeper from United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) patrols the slum of Martissant in the southern hills of Haiti capital Port-au-Prince

This study is the second part of a research project on political violence in Haiti. The project began after President Aristide’s exile in early 2004 and the consequent arrival of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH). While the first part of the project, conducted in 2007, looked at political violence in general, this part investigates the day-to-day social relations and processes that predispose suburban communities to avenue their discontent in violent ways.
