"Somalia is a failed state, representing a threat to itself, its neighbours and the wider world. In recent years, it has become notorious for the piracy off its coast and the rise of Islamic extremism, opening it up as a new 'southern front' in the war on terror. At least that is how it is inevitably portrayed by politicians and in the media. In Getting Somalia Wrong? Mary Harper presents the first comprehensive account of the chaos into which the country has descended and the United States' renewed involvement there. In doing so, Harper argues that viewing Somalia through the prism of al-Qaeda risks further destabilizing the country and the entire Horn of Africa, while also showing that though the country may be a failed state, it is far from being a failed society. In reality, alternative forms of business, justice, education and local politics have survived and even flourished. Provocative in its analysis, Harper shows that until the international community starts to 'get it right' the consequences will be devastating, not just for Somalia, but for the world."--Publisher's website.

Non, la haine et la violence ne sont pas inscrites dans les gènes des peuples des Grands Lacs! Mais que penser de ces images en provenance de l’Est du Congo, de cette guerre qui a pris un nouveau visage, celui de la barbarie, de la cruauté gratuite? Avec les femmes comme principales victimes: violées, mutilées, terrorisées.Depuis quinze ans, Denis Mukwege, médecin-chef à l’hôpital de Panzi (Sud-Kivu), fait face à une urgence qui dure: vagins détruits et âmes mortes. Le gynécologue coud et répare. A mains nues, il se bat contre le viol, cette arme de guerre qui mine toute une société. Son combat lui vaut une large reconnaissance internationale, dont le prix des droits de l’homme en France et le prix Roi Baudouin pour le développement 2011.Plongeant le lecteur dans ce Kivu paradisiaque devenu un enfer, ce livre doit sa force aux regards croisés de deux témoins de premier plan: Colette Braeckman, une journaliste passionnée par le Congo, qui revient d’abord sur les séquences du désastre. Un rappel historique indispensable. Elle nous invite ensuite à démêler les mobiles des seigneurs de la guerre, fait écho à la souffrance des femmes, leur rend hommage... Sa plume «trahit» sa colère, son écoeurement, sa compassion. Parfois désenchantée et révoltée, mais jamais fataliste. Denis Mukwege, au premier plan, vit ces horreurs de l’intérieur. Avec lui, c’est bien sûr le médecin qui parle, mais très vite l’homme, le citoyen s’exprime. Ses réflexions complètent à merveille le récit hallucinant de l’auteur. Le résultat : un ouvrage original et puissant… (Bron: covertekst)
