Bleeding the Congo Dry: The politico-economic failures in the DRC

Focusing on the internal political and economic failures since 1960, the book examines the Democratic Republic of Congo's socio-economic challenges and the military conflicts that enable exploitation of its mineral wealth. It evaluates current development strategies and explores why, despite its resources, the DRC is a failing state with severe human rights issues and inadequate infrastructure. The analysis also suggests potential politico-economic strategies for the DRC to pursue sustainable human and economic development.
