US Soldier in Haiti

In order to make sense of this text, we must refer it and/or its elements to something else, eg:
  • Soldier

    • represents a powerful and benevolent US

  • Haitian/Haiti

    • represented as a weak and primitive society, country in ruins, people taking no responsibility for themselves

  • Press

    • neutral, bringing back 'the truth'

Narrative: US as the guardian of the underdeveloped world, bringing peace to where there is chaos under the neutral, but all-seeing eyes of the press as the guarantor of a righteous government
