The article focuses on establishment of democracy in Haiti. For the second time this century, the U.S. government has announced that it will occupy Haiti to establish democracy. The U.S. planners are worried about their ability to use their power to maintain street-level dominance. Many seem to feel they failed badly at this in Panama and Somalia, and are determined not to make the same mistakes in Haiti. Current U.S. planning calls for dissolving the Haitian Army and police, and then reconstituting them under close U.S. management.
