![]() | Derrière l’assaut de la « République de Tivoli » par l’État jamaïcain Auteur(s) : Cruse, Romain Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles Études caribéennes Résumé : Cet article s’intéresse aux aspects géopolitiques des rapports entre un quartier de Kingston — Tivoli Gardens — et le pouvoir jamaïcain. Il revient sur la construction de Tivoli en tant que lotissement et en tant que « communauté garnison » à la fin des années 1960, et sur l’ascendance des groupes criminels claniques qui la dirigent. Il revient ensuite sur l’évolution du pouvoir des autorités officieuses du quartier, et sur le basculement dans le rapport de force qu’elles entretiennent avec l’État. This paper explores the complex geopolitical relationship that exists between one of Jamaica's most notorious garrison communities, Tivoli Gardens, and the formal state. This relationship is analysed through a historical perspective of Tivoli's construction – from a low-income housing project to a fortified garrison community. The analysis highlights the growth of local criminal organizations that have been controlling the enclave, and shows the shift of power that progressively took place between this gang and the formal State who created the community in the first place.
