Broder des textes et des images pour s'affirmer citoyenne: La démarche de Lucie Kamuswekera
L’article explore le sens de l’écrit dans l’espace pictural en analysant les images brodées de l’artiste congolaise Lucie Kamuswekera. Sa broderie autobiographique met en évidence ce que l’écrit fait dans l’image. Les auteurs montrent que, dans ses broderies, l’écrit donne présence à l’Histoire telle qu’approuvée par l’État alors que le pictural visualise la mémoire que gardent les Congolais de leurs rapports avec l’État. Lucie Kamuswekera brise …
Katanga’s Secessionism in the Democratic Republic of Congo
The DRC-Angola Offshore Oil Dispute: How Regime (In)Security Outweighs Sovereign Claims
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has a legitimate claim under international law to large areas of oil-rich maritime territory currently held by Angola. Access to this territory would make the DRC the second or third largest oil producer in sub-Saharan Africa. Yet the DRC has repeatedly and consciously avoided making effective claims to this territory and its oil. By analysing the history of the Congolese actions (and inaction) towards this …
The Katangese Gendarmes and War in Central Africa: Fighting Their Way Home
Rethinking the Katangese Secession
This article, in analysing the Katangese secession of 1960–63, argues that it should be primarily understood not simply as the result of external machinations but, at least as importantly, as the initiative of indigenous Katangese political leaders. It charts the development of the Katangese national project among self-consciously ‘indigenous’ Katangese leaders, who responded to what they saw as an imposed and illegitimate Congolese nation-state …

From Zaire to the R. D. Congo: The old Termite Hill flattened by the Wind of the Savanna
This article concentrates mainly on the internal sources of the rapid breakdown of the Zairian state apparatus, deliberately not taking into account regional and international support for the warring parties. The Zairian state has been unable to manage its internal contradictions. This was driven to an extreme in the Kivu region, where the deeply seated crisis of representation was never adequately resolved. The absence of conflict-regulating ins…

Column: Africa and Science
Let us briefly quote a philosopher who is not very popular nowadays: " ... so the spirit forming himself. ripens towards a new figure, and sheds from himself piece by piece the construction of his former world, its change only indicated by small symptoms; the frivolity just as the hesitation, entering into the existing, the vague feeling of an unknown are the presages that something different is coming. This steady crumbling away, that does not a…
