Description: The 2011 split of Sudan into two nations - and the conflicts that have continued in its wake - has made it a case of ongoing significance for understanding security and state - building in sub - Saharan Africa. Examining both the north - south divide in the two Sudans as well as the spread of political violence from Darfur this timely study has two aims: First it shows how slavery and the legacies of colonialism continue to shape the challenges of state formation and political identity. Secondly it charts out a possible path for overcoming historical obstacles to achieve inclusive citizenship and representative democracy.
