Summary:

Why, over a decade since the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, and despite a litany of conflict resolution efforts, do war and coercion still dominate the political realm in the Sudans? This book explains the paradoxical role of international peacemaking in the reproduction of violence and political authoritarianism in Sudan and South Sudan. Sharath Srinivasan charts the destructive effects of the peace process, from the role of north-south negotiations in fuelling war in Darfur, the Nuba Mountains and the Blue Nile to the failure of the political transformation promised by the Comprehensive Peace Agreement.
