Baleinières' Riverine Environment and the Materiality of Transport Regulation on Congo's Inland Waterways
Encouraged by a crippling road infrastructure and the proliferation of Chinese low-tech engines, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo)'s baleinières have reappropriated and significantly increased the potential of DR Congo's inland waterways by democratising and tacitly decolonising the national river transportation. Given their role in the country's food security, and in the face of frequent accidents, effective regulation is requested by …
Les baleinières du fleuve Congo: Circulations, transport fluvial et infrastructure artisanale
En dépit de nombreux naufrages, les baleinières en bois augmentent considérablement la capacité de transport des voies navigables de la République démocratique du Congo. Nées de la vaste économie populaire du pays, les baleinières sont autant l’expression de l’expérience historique de la RD Congo que de son patrimoine de mobilité fluviale avec ses savoir-faire sociaux et techniques. À la recherche des causes profondes de leur succès inouï, cet ar…
Longola Marche Arrière ! Chinese diesel engines on Congo’s inland waterways
The comparatively cheap and mechanically accessible Chinese dakadaka diesel engines and their shotteur Z-drives have enabled wooden baleinières to significantly impact waterborne mobility, trade and transportation on the Congo River and its tributaries. While baleinières are artisanal watercraft made of local building materials, their engines are globally circulating technologies, which are able to unfold their economic, hydrodynamic and socio-te…
Japanese divine light in Kinshasa: Transcultural Resonance and Critique in the Religiously Multiple City
The Japanese "new religions" ( Shin Shūkyō) active in Kinshasa (DR Congo) nearly all perform healing through the channeling of invisible divine light. In the case of Sekai Kyūseikyō (Church of World Messianity), the light of Johrei cannot be visually apprehended, but is worn as an invisible aura on the practitioner's body. This article discusses the trans-cultural resonances between Japan and Central Africa regarding the ontology of spiritual for…
The Cleansing Touch: Spirits, Atmospheres, and At touch ment in a “Japanese” Spiritual Movement in Kinshasa
Early on a Saturday morning in 2012, the square next to Rond-point Victoire, in the heart of Kinshasa's Matonge neighborhood, is clothed in an exceptionally thick cloud of brownish dust. As I approach one of the city's most intensely frequented crossroads, where many Kinois (Kinshasa's inhabitants) change their taxi or minibus connection throughout the day and evening, I perceive a circle of about twenty people equipped with brooms, sweeping thei…
Seekers and Things
Focusing on the intricate presence of a Japanese new religion (Sekai Kyûseikyô) in the densely populated and primarily Christian environment of Kinshasa (DR Congo), this ethnographic study offers a practitioner-orientated perspective to create a localized picture of religious globalization. Guided by an aesthetic approach to religion, the study moves beyond a focus limited to text and offers insights into the role of religious objects, spiritual …
