This article introduces the public to one of the most important figures in the Congolese intellectual community today. Patrice Yengo is a well known figure among Congolese dissidents in France and among French scholars of the Congo. His publications are cited in many scholarly works and he is a public intellectual, scholar, and activist who has survived one of the most brutal and bloodiest of modern civil conflicts that was the Congolese civil war. Patrice Yengo is one of the few living specialists of the Congolese civil war and should be regarded as an important member of the African diaspora, an important contributor to the scholarship on modern Congo-Brazzaville.[reply]
