The Southern Sudan: Background to conflict
This book provides a historical and analytical account of the roots of the conflict between Southern and Northern Sudan. Mohamed Omer Beshir traces the origins of regional inequality to the Anglo-Egyptian colonial administration, exploring how policies in education, governance, and economic development created structural imbalances that shaped later political tensions. The study analyzes the rise of Southern nationalism, cultural and religious differences, and the failure of successive governments to integrate the South into the national framework. Beshir also discusses key events leading up to the first Sudanese civil war (1955–1972), highlighting administrative disputes, military uprisings, and demands for federalism and autonomy. Drawing on official records, historical documents, and political analysis, the book offers a clear overview of the complex forces that contributed to one of Africa’s longest-running conflicts. It remains an important reference for understanding Sudanese political history, ethnic relations, and the origins of conflict in the region now known as South Sudan.
