L'histoire mouvementée du Congo-Kinshasa a causé des milliers de victimes depuis la colonisation belge. D'outils de production sous la colonisation, les Congolais sont devenus les sujets d'une dictature néocolonialiste qui a dévasté tant le pays que les esprits. Les colonisateurs ont leur part de responsabilité, mais aussi les élites de l'indépendance et celle d'après la Conférence Nationale Souveraine. Voici l'histoire des 100 dernières années du Congo-Kinshasa.

A travers une somme d'analyses historiques et prospectives que propose cet ouvrage, un regard critique tente d'éclairer la compréhension des enjeux déterminant la recherche de la stabilité du pays. L'auteur tente de faire comprendre comment et pourquoi les choix politiques et économiques faits depuis le XIXè siècle à nos jours n'ont pas réussi à stabiliser durablement le pays. Il s'efforce aussi d'explorer les pistes qui peuvent être exploitées pour une stabilisation à long terme. Les analyses proposées sont une invitation à la réflexion sur le passé, sur le présent et sur le devenir du Congo.

For centuries, Pentecostalism has played a significant role in oppressively shaping the life of formerly colonized people of Africa. Moreover, its theologies have perpetuated neocolonial policies developed through the lens of colonial legacies rooted in la mission civilizatrice (mission to civilize). However, since the 1980s, Neo-Pentecostalism is increasingly reshaping the Congolese Christendom. It sanctions the theologies of a prosperity gospel rooted in an uncritical reading of the Bible and self-theologizing informed by a lack of literal, contextual translation effects. This book argues that the prosperity gospel bankrupts its adherents—in this case, the vulnerable, impoverished sections of Sub-Saharan Africa, and particularly the Postcolonial Congo—and instead offers a balanced theological reflection that broadens Neo-Pentecostal studies with an African voice encouraging the rewriting and rereading of the story of redemptive mission. The research engages a paradigm shift within global missions and world Christianity, or the history of missions as the platform to negotiate literal, prophetic, and contextual translation and retransmission of the biblical gospel. It is critical to reclaim and reestablish a hermeneutic of mixed methodologies and construct a contextual and critical interpretation of the Bible in the Congo. To avoid the African assumption of cultural baggage, which affects how the Congolese interpret the Bible, the interpreter has to be neutral and experience the voice of Christ in the text instead of the voice of Congolese culture; they must be a prophetic voice to reconstruct the authentic meaning of the salvific story.

The African Stakes in the Congo War analyzes the Congo conflict by looking at the roles played by various states and factors in the conflict. Part I introduces the conflict by showing the historical and regional context of the war. Part II examines those states and groups that worked to support the Kaliba regime; Part III examines the rebel groups working to overthrow Kabila and those intervening on their behalf. Part IV looks at the role of supposedly neutral states such as South Africa and looks at the social and economic effects of the war by examining trans-state factors such as rebel groups, arms trading, and economic consequences. The collection includes both African and US/UK scholars, and covers the recent transfer of power from Laurent to Joseph Kabila.
