Christianity and migration have greatly influenced society and culture of sub-Saharan Africa, yet their mutual impact is rarely studied. Through oral history research in north eastern Congo (DRC), this book studies the migration of Anglicans and the subsequent reconfiguring of their Christian identity. It engages with issues of religious contextualisation, revivalism and the rise of Pentecostalism. It examines shifting ethnic, national, gender and generational expressions, the influence of tradition, contemporanity, local needs and international networks to reveal mobile group identities developing through migration. Borrowing the metaphor of 'home' from those interviewed, the book suggests in what ways religious affiliation aids a process of belonging. The result is an original exploration of important themes in an often neglected region of Africa.

Schokkend, verbijsterend, aangrijpend... Wie het relaas van Marie Beatrice Umutesi probeert samen te vatten, neemt vanzelf zijn toevlucht tot dergelijke termen. Umutesi vluchtte, als Hutu en als NGO-medewerkster, in juli 1994 weg uit Rwanda. Ze was, samen met miljoenen andere mensen, op de vlucht voor het oprukkende leger van het RPF. Drie maanden lang woedde reeds de genocide, waarbij vooral Tutsi vermoord werden. Dit boek brengt het verhaal van de vluchtelingen in het toenmalige Zaire, meedogenloos voortgedreven door rebellen van Kabila en medestanders van het RPF. Het is een vergeten kant van het Rwandese drama. De vluchtelingen werden internationaal immers afgeschilderd als een grote bende massamoordenaars die niet meer terug durfden naar hun land van herkomst, uit angst voor represailles. Dat soort mensen was er inderdaad ook wel, maar de meeste vluchtelingen waren bange, onschuldige mannen, vrouwen en kinderen. Dit boek is opgedragen aan alle slachtoffers van de Rwanda-crisis, zowel Rwandezen als Congolezen. De sociologe Umutesi plaatst de gruwelijke gebeurtenissen in een breder kader en zoekt de wortels van het conflict. Ze legt de onzin van de etnische rivaliteit bloot. Tegelijk is haar boek een aanklacht tegen de onmacht en de nalatigheid van de internationale gemeenschap ten overstaan van zoveel menselijke ellende. (Bron: covertekst)

Congo Style presents a postcolonial approach to discussing the visual culture of two now-notorious regimes: King Leopold II's Congo Colony and the state sites of Mobutu Sese Seko's totalitarian Zaïre. Readers are brought into the living remains of sites once made up of ambitious modernist architecture and art in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo. From the total artworks of Art Nouveau to the aggrandizing sites of post-independence Kinshasa, Congo Style investigates the experiential qualities of man-made environments intended to entertain, delight, seduce and impress. In her study of visual culture, Ruth Sacks sets out to reinstate the compelling wonder of nationalist architecture from Kinshasa's post-independence era, such as the Tower of the Exchange (1974), Gécamines Tower (1977), and the artworks and exhibitions that accompanied them. While exploring post-independence nation-building, this book examines how the underlying ideology of Belgian Art Nouveau, a celebrated movement in Belgium, led to the dominating early colonial settler buildings of the ABC Hotels (circa 1908-13). Congo Style combines Sacks's practice as a visual artist and her academic scholarship to provide an original study of early colonial and independence-era modernist sites in their African context.
