The book explores the failures of political elections in Congo-Zaïre, highlighting how they exacerbate divisions among citizens rather than foster unity. Modeled after Euro-American systems but lacking essential resources, these elections fail to address the legitimacy of political institutions. Instead of promoting national development, they fuel personal and partisan conflicts, further complicating governance issues. The author argues that the absence of a sense of patriotic citizenship transforms elections into a source of disillusionment, undermining hopes for meaningful change.
