  • Post-Cold War U.S
    Continuity and Change in U.S.-Congo Relations: A critical analysis of post-Cold War U.S. foreign policy toward Zaire-Democratic Republic of Congo by Annelisa Lindsay B.A. May 2009, The George Washington University A Thesis submitted to The Faculty of The Elliott School of International Affairs of The George Washington University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts May 20, 2012 Thesis Directed by Paul D. Williams Associate Professor of International Affairs © Copyright 2012 by Annelisa Lindsay All rights reserved ii Abstract Continuity and Change in U.S.-Congo Relations: A critical analysis of post-Cold War U.S. foreign policy toward Zaire-Democratic Republic of Congo At the end of the Cold War, a shifting global political climate began to change U.S. foreign policy. U.S. policymakers soon realized that the United States no longer needed to compete with the Soviet Union for influence around the world. New policy priorities took the place of competition in proxy wars, which meant that Africa began to suffer from declining geostrategic importance. Zaire, which had shared a ―special relationship‖ with the United States during the Cold War, was not exempt from the growing malaise in U.S. Africa policy. This study seeks to analyze the continuity or change in U.S. policy toward Zaire, now Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), in the post-Cold War era by examining how different foreign policymaking institutions (White House, Congress, national security bureaucracy) directed the decision-making process to influence situations (routine, crisis, extended crisis) in U.S.-Congo relations from 1989 to 2003.

  • Violence and Instability in Ituri
    Violence and Instability in Ituri DJUGU’S MYSTIC CRISIS AND THE CAMOUFLAGE OF ETHNIC CONFLICT Amir Sungura, Limbo Kitonga, Bernard van Soest and Ndakasi Ndeze INSECURE LIVELIHOODS SERIES / JULY 2020 Photo cover: Internally displaced people in Drodro, Ituri ©️ John Wessels Violence and Instability in Ituri DJUGU’S MYSTIC CRISIS AND THE CAMOUFLAGE OF ETHNIC CONFLICT Amir Sungura, Limbo Kitonga, Bernard van Soest and Ndakasi Ndeze Executive summary This report analyses the string of attacks in and around Djugu territory in Ituri since late 2017. Based on both historical and recent conflict analysis, it finds recent and concrete triggers of the ongoing crisis, nonetheless rooted in protracted tension over land, livelihood and territory, often framed in ethnic binaries. Situated in a geopolitically strategic – but contested – area and shaped by eastern Congo’s broader security challenges, the Djugu crisis quickly escalated, with hundreds killed and half a million displaced. While the bulk of the violence seem to be driven by CODECO, an opaque mystico- armed movement, the government-led response rather com- plicated than attenuated violence. This report demonstrates that peace­ building in Djugu depends on deeper understanding of conflict dynamics and requires addressing political manipulation. Stabilisation efforts thus need to be embedded in broad strategies to address long­standing tension over land and identity.

  • Sovereignty and Personal Rule in Zaire
    African Studies Quarterly | Volume 1, Issue 3 | 1997 Sovereignty and Personal Rule in Zaire WILLIAM RENO Zaire's 1 real political system operates outside conventions of formal state sovereignty. As formal state bureaucracies collapsed under Zaire's president Mobutu Sese Seko (1965-97), the country's ruler increasingly exercised authority through control over markets, rather than bureaucracies. Control became less territorial and more centered on domination of an archipelago of resources that could be used to generate income and attract powerful allies. Abjuring "development," administration became incidental to the profitable exploitation of resources for personal gain. Bureaucracies, feared the ruler, acquire their own interests and powers 2. Rather than providing security to citizens, the regime held on to power through opposite means. Even outsiders' recognition of Zaire's sovereignty has become contingent to what are violent, essentially private commercial arrangements as a means of exercising authority. This reconfiguration represents a stark contrast to earlier characterizations of Zaire's political system, particularly what Callaghy called a "Zairian absolutism" of effective accumulation and exercise of patrimonial control in the 1970s and 1980s within the framework of a centralized (if ineffective) state administration 3 As reliable Cold War era outside sources of income faltered, Mobutu's first response to crisis was to intensify old strategies, consolidating power not through state structures, but via patronage to loyal strongmen. His apparent monopoly over the distribution of resources to a single patronage network discouraged him from innovating, even as the pace of change quickened in the late 1980s. Strongmen quickly discovered, however, that changing conditions brought them new opportunities to profit on their own.

  • The Great African War Congo and Regional Geopolitics, 1996–2006
    The Great African War Congo and Regional Geopolitics, 1996–2006 This book examines a decade-long period of instability, violence and state decay in Central Africa from 1996, when the war started, to 2006, when elections formally ended the political transition in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). A unique combination of circumstances explain the unravelling of the conflicts: the collapsed Zairian/Congolese state; the continuation of the Rwandan civil war across borders; the shifting alliances in the region; the politics of identity in Rwanda, Burundi and eastern DRC; the ineptitude of the international commu- nity; and the emergence of privatised and criminalised public spaces and economies, linked to the global economy, but largely disconnected from the state on whose territory the ‘entrepreneurs of insecurity’ function. As a complement to the existing literature, this book seeks to provide an in-depth analysis of concurrent developments in Zaire/DRC, Rwanda, Burundi and Uganda in African and international contexts. By adopting a non-chronological approach, it attempts to show the dynamics of the inter-relationships between these realms and offers a toolkit for under- standing the past and future of Central Africa. Filip Reyntjens is Professor of Law and Politics at the Institute of Development Policy and Management, University of Antwerp. He has worked in and on the Great Lakes Region of Africa for more than thirty years. Professor Reyntjens’s main research interests are contem- porary history, legal anthropology, political transitions and human rights, and he has published several books and numerous articles on these subjects. He co-edits a yearbook on current affairs in Central Africa, L’Afrique des grands lacs, which is a major reference work on the region.

  • Introduction
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-02691-9 - Mercenaries in Asymmetric Conflicts Scott Fitzsimmons Excerpt More information Introduction Why do small mercenary armies sometimes defeat much larger armies in asym- metric wars? This is an important and unresolved question in the study of interna- tional politics. Neorealism, the leading school of thought in this field, approaches this question by emphasizing the importance of materialist factors such as the size of a military force and its available military technology. Mercenaries in Asymmetric Conflicts, by contrast, offers a fresh answer by developing a con- structivist theory of military performance, which argues that the behavioural norms that make up an armed force’s military culture have an especially impor- tant role in influencing the outcome of asymmetric conflicts and testing it against a neorealist theory of military performance. Moreover, by testing these theories against the empirical record of an under-studied category of conflicts – asym- metric conflicts involving mercenary forces – this book also makes an original empirical contribution to the literature on international politics. Addressing the question through a multi-theory analysis of the outcome of a set of asymmetric conflicts is important to the study of international politics because neorealism, a theory that was specifically developed to explain the use of military force in international politics, has long-dominated the study of military affairs.1 Constructivism, which, in contrast to neorealism, was not specifically developed to explain the use of military force, has nevertheless been applied by a number of scholars to explain some aspects of the use of mili- tary force, such as the decision to undertake humanitarian interventions or to avoid using certain kinds of weapons such as chemical or nuclear weapons.2 1 Kenneth Waltz, Theory of International Politics (New York, NY: McGraw-Hill, 1979).
