Haiti, Picture of the Human Condition (1/17)
The history of this planet teaches us that elimination of natural selection starts environmental doom; Easter Island, Canary Islands ... There is an old Arab proverb: Forest precedes humans, desert follows them. Haiti subsisted in constant quasi starvation. Then came the catastrophe that highlighted the reality. Is it possible to create permanent jobs, environmental improvements and population planning? It won’t be tomorrow and the world's chaotic political and economic situation doesn’t make it easier. In sum, the problem transcends Haiti which becomes a tragic illustration. Could we initiate global economic policy safe from imperialistic backgrounds?
