Humanitarianism and Security contends that the search for stability
and peace remains central to the political environment within the
Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Despite some positive political
and economic progress observed in the Central African Region and
the DRC in particular, the future of the region remains uncertain.
Due to many unaddressed issues, including the multidimensional
manifestations of humanitarian crises, the region is fragile with
the potential for a relapse into violent conflict. Moreover, the
DRC's humanitarian crises have yet to be effectively addressed as
consequences and promoters of insecurity and violence. Based on the
"humanitarian-security-development" paradigm as an inclusive
operational framework, Humanitarianism and Security articulates the
trend of peace recovery in the DRC as contingent upon issues of
security and the refugee/internally displaced population crisis. It
claims and demonstrates that effective solutions must incorporate
considerations of pre-colonial security dynamics, the place and
role of identity within the humanitarian discourse/strategies, the
determinants of transitional public security (TPS), and the various
dynamics regarding the return and re/integration processes, into
one operational framework. This framework must be accompanied by a
continued effort to build strong local institutions as a critical
component to the sustainability of operations.
