| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article builds on the work of scholars who have explored the links between poverty reduction and sustainable peace. It examines the recent shift by bilateral and multilateral donors to 'pro-poor' development strategies in fragile states by considering the case of Haiti, a country with high levels of poverty and intense donor interest. The paper examines whether recent insights on poverty reduction are driving the current economic development strategy in Haiti. It does so by comparing the strategies and programs advanced during the first round of peacebuilding efforts (1994-2000), prior to donors embracing the poverty reduction imperative, with current efforts (2004-07), which are ostensibly aimed at poverty reduction. |
