Peasant surplus

« The Lakou

Definition

  • basically the GDP of the Haitian masses, everything the masses produced at any given period,
  • the importance Haitian history ought to be gauged not by the political power vested in its individual regimes, but by how those regimes extracted and redistributed the peasantry’s economic surpluses back to the elites, not to the people who created those surpluses.
