Abstract:Aflatoxins in crops pose a risk to food safety and have been detected in samples of Haitian peanuts. Using an interdisciplinary commodity chain approach, this paper examines the factors that increase the likelihood of aflatoxin contamination in the country's peanut supply. The results indicate that contamination risk is influenced by political, organizational, institutional, socio-economic, technological, and environmental constraints. A systemic analysis was performed to examine how such factors affect the quality of peanuts as they pass through the commodity chain. The results of our study offer broad insights into the challenges of preventing aflatoxins and protecting food safety in Haiti.Resumen:Las aflatoxinas en los cultivos representan un riesgo para la seguridad alimentaria y se han detectado en muestras de maní haitiano. Utilizando un enfoque interdisciplinario de cadena de productos básicos, este documento examina los factores que aumentan la probabilidad de contaminación por aflatoxinas en el suministro de maní del país. Los resultados indican que el riesgo de contaminación está influenciado por restricciones políticas, organizacionales, institucionales, socioeconómicas, tecnológicas y ambientales. Se realizó un análisis sistémico para examinar cómo dichos factores afectan la calidad del maní a medida que pasan por la cadena productiva. Los resultados de nuestro estudio ofrecen amplias perspectivas sobre los desafíos de prevenir las aflatoxinas y proteger la seguridad alimentaria en Haití.Résumé:Les aflatoxines représentent un danger pour la sécurité alimentaire et leur présence a été signalée dans des échantillons d'arachide en Haïti.

Cette étude ouvre ainsi sur une meilleure compréhension des défis relatifs à la prévention des aflatoxines et la préservation de l'innocuité alimentaire en Haïti.

unable to engage in international travel or migrate out of their country. Chapter 4 is about digital power. Here she carefully notes that, in Haiti, post-earthquake, immediate recovery efforts were dependent on cellphone communication. She suggests a move toward democratizing informational access via patching or ways for people to appropriate existing digital infrastructure (OpenStreetMap, for example) to suit their needs. Chapter 5 is about bordering power. In this chapter, Sheller provides a detailed account of her own crossing of the Haiti– Dominican Republic border. The territoriality of each state is blurred, as the two lakes that separate the island into two are slowly eroding the “border”. This chapter once again reminds us of the “human-made” aspect of the state, territoriality and territory. Finally, Chapter 6 examines sexual power. This is a poignant reminder that tourist destinations are perpetuating forms of exploitation that trace back to slavery and that “violent access to gendered and racialized subaltern bodies continues” (p. 129). Her concluding chapters outline that alternatives to each of the forms of power she presented are possible, ways they could be appropriated from below, and how those alternatives will allow these islands to survive (and thrive) in the Anthropocene. Throughout her book, Sheller discusses these issues with finesse and shows great respect to the local population. She is deeply aware of her positionality in the disaster recovery in Haiti and her privileges, and as such she is also critical of how complicit she is in reproducing the inequalities she describes. This self-awareness shows great maturity and demonstrates how decolonial thinking is possible. Although she draws on other Caribbean experiences, notably that of Puerto Rico, this book would certainly have been even richer with more examples from more other Caribbean Islands. Nevertheless, this book makes an important contribution to decolonial studies and Caribbean studies. I believe this book will become an indispensable read for anyone who wants to work toward a just recovery and a more sustainable future.

past explicitly sought to avoid the conflicts of national histories perceived as strongly influenced by bellicose nationalism. They are also clear about the engagement of Zavala and the RHA with the Casa de España, the Spanish republican exile in Mexico, and the IPGH, all profoundly rooted in the political and ideological context of those years. The authors, however, do not really go deeper into contentious debates between the RHA and different ideological or political groups and trends. For example, the peculiar reconciliation of Spanish and American history, as well as the avoidance of anti-imperialism, stand in stark contrast to trends like Argentine right-wing Hispanismo, Andean and Mexican Indigenismo and Latin American anti-imperialism. With the exception of the disputes between Zavala and Edmundo O’Gorman’s historicism in Mexican academia, no debate with other historiographical schools is mentioned. While those potential conflicts are not the focus of the book, the sheer scale of the RHA network and the prominence of Zavala and other members of the network surely generated responses that could further illuminate the RHA’s place and relevance in those years. In summary, Pita González and Grillo offer a detailed and nuanced analysis of an understudied yet important publication and network. The book’s sophisticated theoretical and methodological framework and solid empirical base make it a work of reference for those interested in American cultural and intellectual networks during the agitated interwar years and beyond.

RESUMEN El presente trabajo busca explicar la relación entre la Iniciativa para la Transparencia de las Industrias Extractivas (EITI) implementada en Perú y el crecimiento de los conflictos socioambientales en torno a la mega-minería en los últimos 15 años. Se analiza de qué modo la iniciativa EITI ha sido construida desde una dimensión internacional, y su implementación se ha fundado en iniciativas locales previas. La iniciativa se basa en una interpretación que operan sus impulsores acerca de las demandas planteadas contra la megaminería y propone una nueva estrategia centrada en el “diálogo” y la “transparencia” como modos de institucionalizar y amortiguar el conflicto. En última instancia, se sugiere que la relación conflicto-EITI-participación pone de manifiesto la construcción de una lógica de dominación basada en la transparencia.
