Abstract

After a century of colonial rule, political instability, dictatorship, and war, the Congolese people eagerly anticipated the 2006 parliamentary and presidential elections. Although the eastern Kivu districts remained embroiled in conflict, a modicum of peace and stability had returned to much of the rest of the country after the 2002 signing of the Sun City Accords. The 2006 elections signified the incipient return of democratic institutions in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) after a 35-year interlude, offering a ray of hope amidst the overall gloom of the post-Mobutu era.KeywordsLeadership EthicCatholic SchoolChurch LeaderCatholic Social TeachingCatholic ChurchThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
