Democracy is characterised by responsive and responsible governance, rule of law, human rights, civic participation, and peaceful transfers of power through electoral processes whereas political governance is the process of decision-making to formulate policy. It suffices to say that democratic governance and political governance reinforce each other and if well implemented, they can create conditions for the establishment of a stable and peaceful society, and above all, allow a country to find a path of durable peace and sustainable development. The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) embarked on the democratisation process on 24 April 1990 through a famous speech by Marechal Mobutu who was in the realm of power for more than two decades and ruled the country using a one-party approach. The DRC has recorded positive accomplishments but also numerous setbacks that negatively affected the expected results. This chapter investigates the extent to which the democratic and governance process has been implemented to allow the DRC to establish a legitimate government to fast-track the democratisation process. It also examines the progress made by the DRC in terms of the key indicators used to measure a country’s performance on democracy and political governance.
