UCTD Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) Internal conflicts Internal displacement Thesis (LLM (Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa)) -- University of Pretoria, 2010. A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Law (LLM in Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa). Prepared under the supervision of Prof. Nico Steytler at the Faculty of Law, University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa. 2010. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has been ravished by internal conflicts for the past two decades. These conflicts have come at a great cost to the people of the DRC, often resulting in a number of human rights atrocities. These atrocities range from the loss of life, resulted in internal displacement and creation of refugees’ communities, as well as the destruction of property and infrastructure , all contributing to prevailing conditions of poverty and deep societal divisions. While there are many underlying factors that fuel these conflicts, the key drivers of the conflict are linked to the unequal distribution of the DRC’s national resources and the mismanagement of public services. Intense frustration and a sense of helplessness to change the status quo have repeatedly manifested itself in a cycle of war and ethnic cleansing. In this regard, the pattern of conflicts has been the manifestation of the frustration of the Congolese people as a whole. http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2011-06-13T06:57:16Z 2011-06-13T06:57:16Z 10-Oct Mini Dissertation * Djambe, DW 2010, 'Bread and peace for the Democratic Republic of Congo : is decentralisation the answer?', University of Pretoria, Faculty of Law, Centre for Human Rights. http://hdl.handle.net/2263/16796 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria |
