The article presents a retrospective of Haitian poetry, from its origins (pre-Columbian areytos and popular creole poetry) to the present day. After a brief reminder of the history of the country, which has strongly marked literature and poetry, the main successive movements until the end of the XXth century are described, from the "pioneers" or "pseudo-classics" to the “surplurealism”. Considering the significant impact of exile (linked to the political, economic and social situation) on Haitian arts and poetry in particular, a special place was reserved in the poetry of the late XXth and early XXI^st^ century, to the poetry of the diaspora, as well as that of "wandering" poets, poets who returned after the exile to their native country, and poets "from the inside". The main authors are presented and their main published works indicated and commented, sometimes accompanied by brief extracts.

The collapse of the Soviet System after the coup of 1991 challenged the traditional Sovietology. In fact, the discipline failed to predict the onset, speed and extent of the collapse of its object of study. It became necessary to determine, before starting post soviet studies, why and how Sovietology went wrong in assessing the nature of the Soviet System and its demise. This article surveys the different models used from 1950 to 1990 to analyse the nature of the soviet System. It tries to show that each one was a product of a particular political context of the Cold War. In fact, it is a scientific study on the image of the enemy.

Globalization is a polarizing subject. It has always had its defenders and its detractors. Although we have been talking about globalization for several decades, it has never been more relevant than in recent months. Since the COVID-19 pandemic hassuddenly brought globalization to the forefront of ethical and political questions, the objective of this article is to present two works on responsible consumption and market exchanges by economist Dani Rodrick and by marketing researchers Myriam Ertz, Damien Hallegatte and Julien Bousquet. The article especially aims to bring to light their similar roots, namely the increasing awareness of global consumer issues and their repercussions. According to these two works, even if globalization has not delivered on all the expected benefits, the results of globalization could be more fair for all stakeholders of the different systems involved in these commercial exchanges.
