Abstract
MEZILAS, Glodel. The Haitian Revolution of 1804 and its political impact on Latin America. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2009, vol.11, n.2, pp.31-42. ISSN 1851-9490.
We deal with the political repercussion of the Haitian revolution of 1804 on Latin America. We analyze the European ideological context and its influence on the region. Secondly, we characterize the Haitian revolution and its position within the modern-world system. We finally make a thorough analysis of the help given by the Haitian leaders to the Spanish American revolutionaries and the historical significance of such attitude.
