Dear NACLA friends,

You can now buy NACLA editor Pablo Morales's new book "Haiti Since the Earthquake: Tectonic Shifts" at 20% off the cover price! NACLA friends can use the source code TSNAC until June 1, 2012 to order the discounted book here.

"Tectonic Shifts" offers on-the-ground perspectives about Haiti's cataclysmic earthquake and the aftermath that left more than 1.5 million people homeless. The book offers a critical analysis of Haiti's heightened vulnerability as a result of centuries of foreign policy and most recently neoliberal economic policies, and addresses the contemporary realities, foreign impositions, and political changes that occurred during the relief and reconstruction periods.
