Summary, etc. | Le présent article analyse les documents recueillis par la Commission d’enquête internationale instaurée en 1904 par Léopold II pour enquêter sur les tristement célèbres « Congo atrocities ». En particulier, il examine les rapports significatifs rédigés par un magistrat italien, le procureur adjoint Gennaro Bosco, qui mena des investigations sur des crimes controversés et évalua la validité de l’inspection effectuée par le consul britannique Roger Casement. Pendant longtemps, la littérature et la presse se sont focalisées sur le rôle joué par plusieurs Européens dans la campagne humanitaire du Congo Reform Movement. Cet article propose de suivre des nouvelles perspectives de recherche qui considèrent l’ agency africaine. Certaines communautés congolaises ont utilisé des stratégies discursives, de performances, de langages corporels et de pratiques de dissimulation et de résistance contre le régime prédateur du caoutchouc rouge. La réflexion sur ces aspects est menée en même temps que l’analyse des « degrés de violence » dans l’univers colonial et de la thèse largement répandue de la « terreur salutaire ». |
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
Summary, etc. | The present article analyses the papers collected by the International Commission of Inquiry set up in 1904 by Leopold II to investigate the sadly known “Congo atrocities.” In particular, it examines the significant reports drawn up by an Italian magistrate, deputy public prosecutor Gennaro Bosco, who investigated some controversial crimes and assessed the validity of inspection carried out by the British consul Roger Casement. For a long time, the literature and the press have focused on the role played by different Europeans in the humanitarian campaign of the Congo Reform Movement. This article aims to apply the new research perspective that considers the centrality of African agency. Some Congolese communities used a number of discursive strategies, performances, body languages, and practices of dissimulation and resistance against the predatory red rubber regime. A meditation on these aspects is carried out together with the analysis of the “degrees of violence” in the colonial universe, and of the widespread thesis of the “terreur salutaire”(“healthy terror”). |
