Sommario/riassunto

Ce livre porte sur la reconstruction du pays haïtien, affecté par le tremblement de terre du 12 janvier 2010 qui a fait 300 000 morts et un million et demi de sans-abri. L'auteur y donne la parole à de nombreux techniciens et experts en matière de reconstruction et propose une vue d'ensemble du travail pharaonique en train d'être accompli tant pas les Haïtiens que par la communauté internationale. Il offre une vision modérée et positive de l'avenir d'Haïti dans le concert des nations.
