Abstract

The Trouble with the Congo suggests a new explanation for international peacebuilding failures in civil wars. Drawing from more than 330 interviews and a year and a half of field research, it develops a case study of the international intervention during the Democratic Republic of the Congo's unsuccessful transition from war to peace and democracy (2003-6). Grassroots rivalries over land, resources, and political power motivated widespread violence. However, a dominant peacebuilding culture shaped the intervention strategy in a way that precluded action on local conflicts, ultimately dooming the international efforts to end the deadliest conflict since World War II. Most international actors interpreted continued fighting as the consequence of national and regional tensions alone. UN staff and diplomats viewed intervention at the macro levels as their only legitimate responsibility. The dominant culture constructed local peacebuilding as such an unimportant, unfamiliar, and unmanageable task that neither shocking events nor resistance from select individuals could convince international actors to reevaluate their understanding of violence and intervention.

Abstract

Kennes and Larmer show how the paths not taken at Africa's independence persist in contemporary political and military movements and bring new understandings to the challenges that personal and collective identities pose to the relationship between African nation-states and their citizens and subjects.

Abstract

In zijn magnum opus trekt Kris Berwouts alle draden van meer dan twintig bewogen jaren samen. Tussen 1996 en 2002 was Congo het slagveld van de Eerste Afrikaanse Wereldoorlog. Een complex vredesproces en twee verkiezingen later blijft de voormalige Belgische kolonie een land op drift. Wat zijn de grondoorzaken van de instabiliteit en hoe spelen die op elkaar in? Welke rol spelen de buurlanden? En waarom klampt president Kabila zich zo vast aan de macht?

Abstract

Corruptie, oorlog, plundering, ellende: dat is het beeld dat we voorgeschoteld krijgen van Congo. Maar blijft dat beeld overeind als we het confronteren met de werkelijkheid? Dit boek leest als een beknopte geschiedenis van Congo. De auteur tracht te begrijpen hoe de Congolezen tegen het kolonialisme aankeken en waarom ze het bestreden. Hoe de dictatuur van Mobutu tot stand kwam, hoe ze in leven werd gehouden en wat ze betekende voor de Congolezen. Waarom Mobutu omvergeworpen werd en wat er nadien gebeurde. Dit boek wil een eerlijk beeld schetsen maar ook een instrument zijn voor verdere solidariteit met het land. (Bron: catalogus Docatalas Antwerpen)

Abstract

Het kolonialisme roept heel wat maatschappelijke discussie op. De debatten worden echter vaak op emotionele manier gevoerd, met onvolledige kennis van feiten en van de context. Koloniaal Congo presenteert daarom de huidige wetenschappelijke inzichten en onderzoeksresultaten voor een breed publiek. Dit is het begin van een nieuwe globale visie. Een keur aan binnen- en buitenlandse historici biedt aan de hand van concrete vragen een uniek inzicht in de geschiedenis van het Belgische kolonialisme. Hoe werkte het autocratische bestuur van Leopold II en wat weten we over de slachtoffers? Hoeveel winst werd er gemaakt in Congo, en naar wie ging die? Hoe beleefden Congolese mannen en vrouwen het koloniale bestuur? Hoe verzetten Congolezen zich? Wat is de impact van het kolonialisme op de natuur van Congo? Wat waren de gevolgen van het koloniaal beleid op vlak van infrastructuur, onderwijs, gezondheidszorg en wetenschap? Gaven missionarissen het kolonialisme een menselijker gelaat? Deze en vele andere vragen maken van Koloniaal Congo een even onmisbaar als onthullend boek. Bron : http://www.standaardboekhandel.be
