Sinds de turbulente onafhankelijkheid in 1960 kenden de betrekkingen tussen Congo en België euforische tijden naast even veel periodes van diepe conflicten. Het is tijd om de koloniale erfenis voor eens en voorgoed op te helderen. Een belangrijke stem wordt in dit debat altijd over het hoofd gezien: die van de Congolezen in Congo zelf. 0De afgelopen decennia sprak Peter Verlinden met Congolezen in Congo: van het kleinste en afgelegen dorp tot in de grote steden. Sommige getuigen hebben nog gewerkt voor ?de Belgen?, anderen hebben de kolonialen alleen op afstand gekend, de jongeren uitsluitend door de verhalen van hun ouders en grootouders. Hun kijk op de Belgisch-Congolese relaties verdient aandacht, veel aandacht. Want het is met deze mannen en vrouwen dat de Belgisch-Congolese toekomst opgebouwd moet worden.

Belgium was a small, neutral country without a colonial tradition when King Leopold II ceded the Congo, his personal property, to the state in 1908. For the next half century Belgium not only ruled an African empire but also, through widespread, enduring, and eagerly embraced propaganda, produced an imperialist-minded citizenry. Selling the Congo is a study of European pro-empire propaganda in Belgium, with particular emphasis on the period 1908–60. Matthew G. Stanard questions the nature of Belgian imperialism in the Congo and considers the Belgian case in light of literature on the French, British, and other European overseas empires. Comparing Belgium to other imperial powers, the book finds that pro-empire propaganda was a basic part of European overseas expansion and administration during the modern period. Arguing against the long-held belief that Belgians were merely “reluctant imperialists,” Stanard demonstrates that in fact many Belgians readily embraced imperialistic propaganda. Selling the Congo contributes to our understanding of the effectiveness of twentieth-century propaganda by revealing its successes and failures in the Belgian case. Many readers familiar with more-popular histories of Belgian imperialism will find in this book a deeper examination of European involvement in central Africa during the colonial era.

The Assassination of Lumumba unravels the appalling mass of lies, hypocrisy and betrayals that have surrounded accounts of the 1961 assassination of Patrice Lumumba-the first prime minister of the Republic of Congo and a pioneer of African unity-since it perpetration. Making use of a huge array of official sources as well as personal testimony from many of those in the Congo at the time, Ludo De Witte reveals a network of complicity ranging from the Belgian government to the CIA. Patrice Lumumba's personal strength and his quest for African unity emerges in stark contrast with one of the murkiest episodes in twentieth-century politics.

Memories of Post-Imperial Nations presents the first transnational comparison of Great Britain, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Portugal, Italy and Japan, all of whom lost or 'decolonized' their overseas empires after 1945. Since the empires of the world crumbled, the post-imperial nations have been struggling to come to terms with the present, and as recall sets in 'wars of memory' have arisen, leading to a process of collective 'editing'. As these nations rebuild themselves they shed old characteristics and acquire new ones, looking at new orientations. This book brings together varying perspectives with historians and political scientists of these nations attempting to bind memory and its experience of different post-imperial nations.

-Showcases paintings by innovative Congolese artists from Lubumbashi, Kinshasa, Bunia, Mbandaka, Kikwit and Kisangani -Explores the concept of painting as visual memory Painting was one of the defining factors in the formation of Congolese national culture during the seventies and eighties. Looking back on works from this era, we gain a clear impression of the country's collective memory. The exhibition of paintings featured in this book explores the development of Congolese society from 1968-2012. Portraits, landscapes and allegorical paintings alternate with urban scenes, historical figures and critical reflections on religion, politics and social problems. Humor is never far away. Historical objects, photos, drawings and archive footage provide a broader perspective, and similarities to older art forms and other genres from Congo are clearly visible. The importance of popular paintings is not fundamentally different from that of more traditionally respected art; both are crucial reflections on their contexts, and informed the development of Congolese society.

Little by little, while the war between Belgian and German colonial powers is raging in the heart of the black continent, the young Belgian pilot will try to learn a little more about the history of this man who is called "Madame Livingstone" .Based on an Apollo story, Christophe Cassiau-Haurie mixes adventure and friendship here against the backdrop of World War I in Africa. The Congo's unique magnificence is presented in full color illustrations by Congloese artist Barly Baruti.
