Sudans Wars and Peace Agreements

Editat de Jay Spaulding, Stephanie Beswick, Carolyn Fluehr-Lobban
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 aug 2010
Originating from the 2008 27th annual conference of the Sudan Studies Association (SSA) of the same title, these essays document and analyze Sudans chronic history of conflict since independence in 1956 as well its own and international efforts to bring an end to these conflicts. As the country moves toward what some see as the inevitable separation of South Sudan in 2011 honoring the principle of self-determination long fought for by southerners, the lessons of six decades of a history of war and peace agreements is both telling and compelling. This analysis is offered by the real experts on Sudan rather than the usual story offered by journalists and pundits.
