Constitutional Documents of Haiti 1790-1860 / Documents Constitutionnels D'Hanti 1790-1860 / Verfassungsdokumente Haitis 1790-1860

In the wake of the American and French revolutions at the end of the 18th century, the first modern constitutional documents adopted in the Americas outside of the US were penned in Haiti. This newly revised edition takes into account for the first time all constitutional documents from 1790 onward, thus offering a unique window on the early constitutional history of the first independent Latin American country.
