Sudan: The Elusive Quest for Peace - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Iyob (political science, U. of Missouri) and Khadiagala (comparative politics and African studies, Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies) investigate the sociohistorical and political factors driving conflict in Sudan. They begin with the making of the modern Sudanese polity, emphasizing the complex ethnic and geographic factors that have helped shape Sudanese identities. They then turn to analysis of the political contests and alliances between different Sudanese actors and the role played in these relationships by regional and international institutions. The conflict in Darfur receives individual attention, followed by a concluding chapter on the socioeconomic relationships and organizing ideologies that have marred peace efforts over the past half century.
