Violent Capitalism and Hybrid Identity in the Eastern Congo
Power to the Margins
This book suggests a radically new reading of Central Africa s violent
crisis. Written from the vantage point of actors who stand m the
middle of it - transnational cross-border traders - it traces ac
violent rule patterns to a tumultuous history о extraeconomic
lation, armed rebellion, and de facto public authority operating
margins of regional state powers. , ·
Based on a decade of sociological research in t e region,
ginality of this book lies in its neat focus on cu tura an e
uncertainty as a driver of political action. Exploring the pro
changes that have taken shape in this region over t e pas
explains how certain actors have taken a centra p ace an
ers are marginalized in the reformulation of po itica au о
local and cross-border levels. Through an in-depth analysis of East
Congo’s turbulent history, it offers new ways to t in a о . j
tionships between public authority, armed conflict, and 1
intervention.
Timothy Raeymaekers is Lecturer in Political Geography at t ^ ^
sity of Zurich. He is coeditor of Conflict and Social TranJ C naict
