Abstract

In 'Nu de wereld niet meer kijkt' vertelt journalist Eduard Cousin over het roerige afgelopen decennium van Egypte. Begin 2011 waren de ogen van de wereld op dit land gericht, toen ook daar de massale protesten van de Arabische Lente losbraken. Twee jaar later verhuisde de Nederlandse journalist Eduard Cousin naar Caïro en trof ook toen een vol Tahrirplein aan, met demonstranten tegen de Moslimbroederschap van president Morsi. Cousin ging aan de slag voor lokale media, ontmoette zijn Egyptische vrouw en maakte de protesten van dichtbij mee. Inmiddels kijkt de wereld niet meer toe, maar de gevolgen van de Arabische Lente zijn in het dagelijks leven onverminderd voelbaar. Hoe kijken gewone Egyptenaren naar het recente verleden en de toekomst? Wat zijn de dromen en zorgen van de eigenaar van Cousins stamcafé; de boer in de Nijldelta die besluit op zijn landbouwgrond een huis voor zijn zoon te bouwen; de journalist die zich schikt in het schrijven van staatspropaganda; en de moslimbroeder die nog steeds droomt van een islamitische staat in Egypte? Cousin verbindt hun verhalen soepel en invoelbaar met zijn eigen verhaal en de politieke, economische en sociale ontwikkelingen, en geeft zo een levendig en gelaagd beeld van dit intrigerende land.https://www.atlascontact.nl/boek/nu-de-wereld-niet-meer-kijkt/

Abstract

De Verenigde Staten trekken zich terug uit het Midden-Oosten; Rusland, China en superambitieuze regionale leiders vullen de gaten. Trump heeft het gebied nog eens extra volgepompt met wapens, maar ook de Russen leveren aan wie ook maar betaalt. Wordt het Midden-Oosten één groot strijdtoneel waar de drones over en weer vliegen? Met aan de ene kant Iran en zijn bondgenoten in Syrië, Irak en Libanon en daartegenover de conservatieve Golfheersers? Zoals gewoonlijk in het Midden-Oosten ligt het niet zo simpel. In Wereld in wanorde legt Carolien Roelants uit wie er allemaal tegenover wie staan en waarom. https://uitgeverijprometheus.nl/boeken/wereld-in-wanorde-paperback/

Abstract

The West's actions in the Middle East are based on a fundamental misunderstanding: political Islam is repeatedly assumed to be the main cause of conflict and unrest in the region. The idea that we can decipher Jihadist radicalization or problems in the Middle East simply by reading the Qur'an has now become symptomatic of our age. This dangerous over-simplification and the West's obsession with Islam dominates media and policy analysis, ultimately skewing intervention and preventing long-term solutions and stability in the region. Ömer Taspinar, who has 20 years' research and policymaking experience, explains here what is really going on in the Middle East. The book is based on three of the most pressing cases currently under the spotlight: the role of Erdogan and the unrest in Turkey; the sectarian clashes in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Lebanon; and the existence of the so-called Islamic State. Islam is often seen as the root cause of the challenge associated with these cases. But by unpacking the real issues, such as entrenched authoritarianism, vast energy resources, excessive defense spending, and the youth bulge, the book demystifies what is happening and cites governance and nationalism as the main drivers of conflict. The book shows the importance of treating the causes – which are economic, social and institutional – rather than the symptom – the continued and growing success of Islamist parties and jihadist movements in assessing the Middle East. In revealing exactly how Islamism is activated and by analyzing the structural challenges of the region, this unique insider's account provides a map to understanding Middle Eastern wars and conflicts and the prospects for the future.

Abstract

Everything Passes Except the Past takes an artistic and discursive approach to coming to grips with a colonial past that remains present in museums, public space, and image archives. The contributions in this book propose visionary theoretical, practical, and ethical foundations for future museums based on artistic and curatorial remediation of ethnographic collections. They also cover the role of colonial films in our collective and national memory, as well as the challenges and perspectives of tearing down or replacing monuments and renaming streets. - Contributions by YAA ADDÆ NANTWI, LOTTE ARNDT, ANDRÉS ANTEBI ARNÓ, BIANCA BALDI, DANIEL BLAUFUKS, FILIPA CÉSAR, DIDI CHEEKA, CLÉMENTINE DELISS, KARFA DIALLO, SALLY FENAUX BARLEYCORN, ALESSANDRA FERRINI, FRADIQUE, PABLO GONZÁLES MORANDI, GUIDO GRYSEELS, JANA J.

Abstract

L'an 2020, marque par la Covid-19 et l'effondrement du marche petrolier, est celui de tous les bouleversements depuis le Moyen-Orient jusqu'aux banlieues de l'Europe. Le conflit israelo-palestinien se fragmente avec, d'un cote, un pacte portant le nom du prophete Abraham, qui va des Etats-Unis a Abou Dhabi au Maroc et au Soudan en passant par Israel, agrege l'Egypte et l'Arabie, et lorgne l'Irak ; de l'autre 'l'axe frero-chiite' qui rassemble Gaza, Qatar, Turquie et Iran, avec le soutien ponctuel de la Russie. Dans ces convulsions sismiques, Beyrouth explose, refugies et clandestins affluent en Europe, et le president turc Erdogan tente de refaire d'Istanbul le centre de l'islam mondial. Enfin, le terrorisme frappe de nouveau, en France et en Autriche, au nom d'un jihadisme sans organisation. Il s'appuie sur une atmosphere creee par des entrepreneurs de colere, mobilisant foules et reseaux sociaux du monde musulman pour venger leur prophete face a l'Occident - tandis que Joe Biden doit restaurer la confiance des allies de l'Amerique. L'auteur propose, cartes et chronologie a l'appui, la mise en perspective indispensable de l'actualite pour comprendre et anticiper les grandes transformations de demain.

Abstract

Op 13 oktober 1961 vermoordt een Griek eerste minister Louis Rwagasore van Burundi. De populaire leider had tot consternatie van België, dat Burundi als voogdijgebied bestuurt, net de verkiezingen gewonnen. Enkele uren na de moord kruist topambtenaar Jean-Paul Harroy in het hospitaal waar Rwagasore ligt opgebaard de moeder van de premier. Ze geeft Harroy een klinkende oorveeg. In die mep zit de overtuiging vervat van veel Burundezen: de koloniale overheid heeft de misdaad georganiseerd. Maar de rol van België wordt niet onderzocht: de raison d’état gebiedt zwijgplicht. België executeert de schutter, Burundi de vijf medeplichtigen. Zestig jaar later biedt Ludo De Witte opening van zaken over een moord die Burundi op weg zette naar interne verdeeldheid, etnische spanningen en massamoorden. Confidenties van hoofdrolspelers en de ontsluiting van cruciale archieven leggen de Belgische rol in de moord op de charismatische leider bloot. Met op de achtergrond de slagschaduwen van Patrice Lumumba en koning Boudewijn, met bijrollen voor Paul-Henri Spaak en Etienne Davignon.

Abstract

En 1999, Ludo De Witte publie un livre-choc : L'Assassinat de Lumumba. Ses révélations sur le rôle du roi Baudouin, du gouvernement belge et de la CIA amèneront la Belgique à présenter des excuses officielles au Congo. En 2017, le sociologue belge sort chez Investig'Action L'Ascension de Mobutu. Salué par Jean Ziegler : " Un livre superbe d'érudition, de courage et d'intelligence analytique. Au magnifique peuple congolais, il contribue à restituer une mémoire claire... " En 2021, ce nouveau livre approfondit son enquête sur le pillage de l'Afrique centrale et l'installation brutale du néocolonialisme. De Witte fouille les archives, fait parler les témoins et dévoile un évènement longtemps camouflé : l'élimination du prince Louis Rwagasore qui venait de remporter les premières élections du Burundi. Un crime d'État avec, dans les coulisses, le roi Baudouin, Étienne Davignon et Paul-Henri Spaak dans des rôles troubles. Tandis que l'ombre de Patrice Lumumba, ennemi n° 1 de Bruxelles et Washington, plane sans cesse au-dessus de ce thriller économico-politique.
