Congolese Paradox: Living Very Poor in an Immensely Rich Country

The book I am presenting this time includes reflections that encompass the endogenous and exogenous aspects of the Congolese paradox. These reflections were developed during conferences and debates organized by the Think Tank Union Chrétienne Pour le Développement du Congo (UCD). The first part includes eight articles that analyze the internal problems of development in Congo. The second part is composed of articles that analyze the external problems that affect the development of the Congo. The third part includes an article on international terrorism because the Congolese government often refers to terrorism in the east of the country. Finally, summaries of two works that I consider very important for understanding the problems of development in the Congo close this book.
