Autonomy, Secession, and the Ties that Bind: Lessons from the Peace Agreements of the Sudan

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

This critical retrospective of the North-South peace process explores the unequal structures of power that were legitimised by the Addis Ababa and Sudan Peace agreements, respectively. These unequal power structures were merely exported south of the border under the terms of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement, and they continue to find expression in contemporary efforts to resolve the conflict, such as the 2015 Compromise Peace Agreement on South Sudan.

The paper examines the legacy of autonomy in the Sudanese context, and concludes by addressing its continuing effects on the ongoing conflicts in the region.
