| Description: | In 1965, Mobutu Sese Seko came to power in Belgian Congo, renamed Zaire to show it was no longer a colony. He began thirty-two years of an increasingly damaging political system that lacked African-centered vision and thus failed to promote the well-being of the nation’s people. This book details the shortcomings and misdeeds of Mobutu’s system and proposes participatory democracy as the best political alternative for what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo to rise from the ashes of Mobutu’s totalitarianism. |
