Haiti, The Reign of the Informal Economy

Check out this worthwhile documentary on Haiti's informal economy, the peasantry and labor movement, recommended by a Haitian professor. It is also of note for showing how cooperative organizations and farmer associations come together to resist rising prices, share resources, and protect themselves. Indeed, the poor security for market women necessitates organizing amongst themselves, and once unionization or organization spreads across different sections of the informal economy, Haitian workers will have a stronger voice and more power to compel the state to provide protection.
