Description

Sudan's "Southern Problem" explores the complex history of the country's civil wars, focusing on the battle for legitimacy between the Sudanese state and Southern rebels. This book examines how racial thought and rhetoric influenced international debates about the South's political destiny. The author sheds light on the competition for Sudan's reputation by placing both sides within a shared frame. It reveals the discursive techniques employed by both the rebels and the state to elicit support from diverse audiences, set against the backdrop of Pan-Africanism, the Cold War, and Black liberation politics. By analyzing the interplay of silences and articulations in both rebel and state texts, this book demonstrates that the war of words waged abroad was a crucial aspect of Sudan's political conflict.
