abstract

  • The African continent has been analyzed by security studies in order to understand the nature of the conflicts that have taken place in this territory and also to avoid to returning to a state of violent conflict by means of providing a variety of possible solutions. For these reasons, in the nineties, it started the implementation of programs and reforms such as the Demobilization, Disarmament and Reintegration (DDR) program within a Security Sector Reform (SSR). Particularly, for the Democratic Republic of Congo, after several violent conflicts and the interventions made by different actors, a DDR program was implemented as part of a SSR specifically addressed to the Armed Forces. Therefore, this investigation examines the impact of SSR on the DDR program in order to glimpse the challenges that it presented within a complex context of conflict such as DRC’s.
