Abstract

Jean Louis Vastey (1781-1820) was one of the main thinkers of the Haitian revolution. Being a prolific writer, he produced a wide theoretical-conceptual work, mainly between 1814 and 1819. From a feminist and decolonialistic approach, this article seeks to pose him as one of the pioneering voices that critically argued against the hegemonic Eurocentric account. His work is to be highlighted as unavoidable reference material, since it is presented as one of the main and first contributions to anti-racist, antislavery and anti-colonial theory.
