Amidst the turmoil of more than 30 coups d'état and shadows of anti-Black, foreign influence, Haiti has wrestled with the heavy chains of underdevelopment and systemic corruption, fueled by cronyism and bribery, stemming from the systemic ramifications of an oppressive indemnity imposed by France.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book's overarching narrative zooms in on President Boniface Alexandre's establishment of the Unité de Lutte Contre la Corruption (ULCC): a landmark initiative aimed at curbing governmental corruption as well as cultivating a managerial culture centered on accountability.
