The Democratic Republic of the Congo is both untypical and exemplary of post-colonial developments in Africa. Military, political and cultural conflicts have traumatised the collective consciousness to such an extent that the search for happiness has taken unexpected turns:among other things the growing influence of religious Pentecostalism is creating a constant confrontation of good and evil, this world and the other world, etc., that does not actually exist in this form. We all carry both in us, this world and the other, the visible and the invisible, good and evil, the rational and the irrational.
