Synopsis

Although the “béké” minority, made up of the descendants of former slave-owners, comprise just one per cent of the population in Martinique, they own 90% of the agro-processing industry, and just over 50% of agricultural land. In spite of this obvious domination, they reject any idea of inequality that might be to their advantage, and argue that they have no involvement in politics. But economics and politics are often connected.
