Download or read book Sudanese Society Superstructure and Institutions written by Issam A. W. Mohamed and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-11-09 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book analyzes the contemporary Sudanese society which endures many hardships that are manifested in economic retraction, inflation, recession and stagflation. However, social conflicts are also manifested in social disintegrations and simple man's daily complaints to open rebellions. Most academicians agree on one point, that the society endures abnormal conditions. The current paper aims delves into a historical context of civil society as a concept in general which originated in the west. Next it displays differences between it and the Sudan supposing that there is unique experience appropriate to the Sudanese state of affairs. Therefore that possibility of creating an appropriate term that fully describes the social structures as well as settling the dispute resulting from the use of the term civil society. The study adopts the analytical historical comparative approach to reach its goal to describe the colonial period and the creation of Sudanese elite that affected the genesis of totalitarianism and subsequent civil disturbances. The study concluded that, the use of the term civil society in its western context has led to cognitive and methodological defects which has not been given the chance and time to mature in the country because of a series of coup de etat and totalitarian regimes.
Book Synopsis Islamic Law and Society in the Sudan by : Carolyn Fluehr-Lobban
Download or read book Islamic Law and Society in the Sudan written by Carolyn Fluehr-Lobban and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few studies exist which deal with Islamic law in practice, and this is among the first such studies in the English language for Islamic Africa. It is significant that the present study was completed just prior to the extension of Islamic law as the sole governing law in the Sudan in 1983, for it captures many essentials of the Shari’a as it has been applied for decades prior to this important change. Numerous movements for reform and change are discussed in the book, which reflect the contemporary debate in the Sudan over the position of Shari’a in society.
Download or read book South Sudan written by Adwok Nyaba and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2019-11-02 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Sudan: The State We Aspire To was conceived and written mid-2009, two years before the conduct of the referendum on self-determination. The comprehensive peace agreement provided the people of southern Sudan this inalienable right after nearly five decades of conflict. Peter Adwok Nyaba incisively discusses the high expectations and hopes the people of southern Sudan had, mixed with anxiety that characterises the fluid and unpredictable nature of the interim period leading to independence of South Sudan in 2011. In this second edition of South Sudan: The State We Aspire To, written after the eruption of violence in December 2013, the events vindicated what the author correctly discussed the situation southern Sudan was in as being on the horns of a great dilemma, or the attitude of its leaders being between treason and stupidity. It was inevitable that the internal crisis in the Sudan Peoples Liberation Movement (SPLM)/Sudan Peoples Liberation Army (SPLA) leadership and failure to pursue socioeconomic development commensurate with its liberation ideology would plunge the country into hell on earth. Nyabas prime objective in The State We Aspire To, is to provoke a debate, inside and outside the SPLM and South Sudan at large, on the political future of South Sudan. He argues that the SPLM top leadership, cadres and general membership are collectively responsible for what is happening to this young nation having willfully abandoned the ideals for which the South Sudanese people sacrificed in the wars of national liberation. the authorincisively discussestion.

Download or read book South Sudan written by Edward Thomas and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011, South Sudan became independent following a long war of liberation, that gradually became marked by looting, raids and massacres pitting ethnic communities against each other. In this remarkably comprehensive work, Edward Thomas provides a multi-layered examination of what is happening in the country today. Writing from the perspective of South Sudan's most mutinous hinterland, Jonglei state, the book explains how this area was at the heart of South Sudan's struggle. Drawing on hundreds of interviews and a broad range of sources, this book gives a sharply focused, fresh account of South Sudan's long, unfinished fight for liberation.

Book Synopsis Non-Governmental Organisations - Performance and Accountability by : Michael Edwards
Download or read book Non-Governmental Organisations - Performance and Accountability written by Michael Edwards and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last decade has seen some significant changes in international development and in the status of non-governmental organisations operating in the field. Not only has the number of NGOs virtually doubled; many of them have seen a considerable growth in their budgets, and have grown closer to governments and official aid agencies. NGOs are acknowledged by many to be more effective agents of development than governments or commercial interests ? even as a ?magic bullet? for development problems. Despite these positive trends, the real impact of the NGO sector is not well documented. This is partly because NGO performance-assessment and accountability methods are weak, and partly because NGOs are caught up increasingly in the world of official aid, which pushes them towards certain forms of evaluation at the expense of others. This unique book takes a hard and critical look at these issues, and describes how NGOs can, and must, improve the way they measure and account for their performance if they are to be truly effective.

Book Synopsis LAW, CUSTOM AND PROPERTY RIGHTS AMONG THE ?MA/NYIMA? OF THE NUBA MOUNTAINS IN THE SUDAN by : Hunud Abia Kadouf
Download or read book LAW, CUSTOM AND PROPERTY RIGHTS AMONG THE ?MA/NYIMA? OF THE NUBA MOUNTAINS IN THE SUDAN written by Hunud Abia Kadouf and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on an extensive field work in which the author tried to study the customary law of property of an African agrarian tribal community of Āma - also known as Nyimaŋ - of the Nuba Mountains in the northern Sudan. The writer has tried to explain the nature of property holding in the light of the people's philosophy evidenced in their social structure and their traditional beliefs. Special attention is paid to the traditional structure of political leadership in this highly segmented society that was prone not only to inter-tribal wars but was also in a constant 'fission and fusion' among themselves when not at war with other neighboring tribes. In discussing jurisdictional issues, and traditional settlement mechanisms based partly on law and custom, both adopted by this egalitarian society, the study is made currently relevant by keen observation on the effect of modernity on traditional ethics and morality of the Āma society that was once described by some authors as being 'impervious to foreign influence". Furthermore, the reception and assimilation of the state law together with the Shari'ah laws in various areas such as that relating to property devolution, family institution, and burial rites is treated as being of great significance in the overall development of the tribal customary laws. Like any other Nuba tribe, the consciousness of the Āma people of their ethos of identity marks their ferociously guarded customs and traditions prevalent up-to-date. The book is not only a precious academic endeavor full of keen observations, in depth study and analysis of tribal customary laws of property; but is also a memoir for the author to commemorate formidable tribal group of the Āma people in the Nuba Mountains of the Sudan.

Download or read book Lifelines written by Stephane Hallegatte and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infrastructure—electricity, telecommunications, roads, water, and sanitation—are central to people’s lives. Without it, they cannot make a living, stay healthy, and maintain a good quality of life. Access to basic infrastructure is also a key driver of economic development. This report lays out a framework for understanding infrastructure resilience - the ability of infrastructure systems to function and meet users’ needs during and after a natural hazard. It focuses on four infrastructure systems that are essential to economic activity and people’s well-being: power systems, including the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity; water and sanitation—especially water utilities; transport systems—multiple modes such as road, rail, waterway, and airports, and multiple scales, including urban transit and rural access; and telecommunications, including telephone and Internet connections.

Book Synopsis Ordinary Sudan, 1504–2019 by : Elena Vezzadini
Download or read book Ordinary Sudan, 1504–2019 written by Elena Vezzadini and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book starts from the premise that the study of "exceptionally normal" women and men – as conceived by microhistory – has radical implications for understanding history and politics, and applies this notion to Sudan. Against a historiography dominated by elite actors and international agents, it examines both how ordinary people have brought about the most important political shifts in the country’s history (including the recent revolution in 2019) and how they have played a role in maintaining authoritarian regimes. It also explores how men and women have led their daily lives through a web of ordinary worries, desires and passions. The book includes contributions by historians, anthropologists, and political scientists who often have a dual commitment to Middle Eastern and African studies. While focusing on the complexity and nuances of Sudanese local lives in both the past and the present, it also connects Sudan and South Sudan with broader regional, global, and imperial trends. The book is divided into two volumes and six parts, ordered thematically. The first part tackles the entanglement between archives, social history, and power. The second focuses on women’s agency in history and politics from the Funj era to the recent 2018-2019 revolution. Part 3 includes contributions on the history and global connections of the Sudanese armed forces. In the second volume, part 4 intersects the themes of urban life, leisure, and colonial attitudes with queerness. In part 5, labour identities, practices, and institutions are discussed both in urban milieus and against the background of war and expropriation in rural areas. Finally, part 6 studies the construction of social consent under various self-styled Islamic regimes, as well as the emergence of alternative imaginaries and acts of citizenship in times of political openness.
