COULANGE MERONE, Schwarz. Sociohistorical elements to understand Haitian migration to the Dominican Republic. Pap. poblac [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.97, pp.173-193. ISSN 2448-7147.  https://doi.org/10.22185/24487147.2018.97.29.

One of the most prominent features of the demography of the Dominican Republic's labor market over the last hundred years is the presence of a considerable number of Haitian and Dominican of Haitian descent workers. Well, since Haitian workers began to enter this market at the beginning of the last century after the notable boom of the Dominican sugar industry, the flow of migrants has never stopped, despite the vicissitudes that themselves and later their children born in the Dominican Republic have experienced over the decades. In this article, I offer a historical overview of Haitian labor migration to the Dominican Republic, considering three periods that, from my point of view, have structured this migratory flow.
