Proposal of Solution on the Chaotic Political Situation in Drc


Book Description

Indeed, there is a huge contrast between the potential in men, natural resources, basements, soil, climate, hydrography, flora fauna etc . . . , in Congo, and the life of the majority of Congolese living in the country. And in the words of MKANDAWIRE T., quoted by Professor Andr Mbata B. MANGO and MPRARISENI BUDELI, lecturer at the University of South Africa since its independence June 30, 1960, the history of the Democratic Republic of Congo has been a succession of coups, attempted secessions, attacks by foreign troops, civil wars, rebellions, plundering, authoritarian regimes, interventions of the United Nations (UN) and national conferences or dialogues.

In response to these questions, several answers have been proposed: the economic disintegration, lack of capital, lack of developmental political structures, etc . . . In this regard, we believe that the lack of developmental political structures would be the main cause of the chaotic situation in the Congo (DRC).Came then the major issues: how to change the policy in the Congo (DRC)? What to do to get the legitimate aspirations of the people?
