The Sudan
This text provides a comprehensive analysis of Sudan's unresolved struggle between supporters of the majoritarian vision who seek to create a cohesive Arab-Islamic state and the pluralists who strive for equality before the law.BR> North America: Indiana U Press
The Self-determination of Peoples
Focusing especially on the era since the Cold War, political scientists, other scholars, and government officials examine both empirically and conceptually the causes and impacts of people striving for self-determination and autonomy. They consider the legal, political-administrative, ethnic-cultural, economic, and strategic dimensions; and try to consider examples from all major regions. Annotation c.

The Postcolonial State in Africa
"A highly readable, sweeping, and yet detailed analysis of the African state in all its failures and moments of hope. Crawford Young manages to touch upon all the important issues in the discipline and crucial developments in the recent history of the African continent.

" . . . a very fine collection of superb articles . . . well written, beautifully researched." —Robert O.

Military Disengagement from Politics
First published in 1988, Military Disengagement from Politics explores the reasons and conditions for military withdrawal from politics. It gives an in-depth analysis of specific grounds and circumstances of a representative list of countries whose military intervened, ruled, and eventually withdrew allowing for either full-scale civilian rule, or a more circumscribed set up in which the armed forces retain varying degrees of control in the governing process. The book provides a comparative and cross-cultural examination of eight countries covering a wide region of the world. It offers a carefully chosen array of case studies representing Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and Central and South America. This volume is a must read for students and researchers of political science.
The Sudan
Little known in the United States and Western Europe, the Sudan is nevertheless a country of major importance in international affairs. This analytic introduction to the modern Sudan, first published in 1985, provides a summary of the basic dynamics of the country’s political, social, cultural, and economic life, as well as a general framework for interpreting the modern Sudanese experience. The authors present a clear picture of the Sudan as a distinctive entity with an identity all its own, revealing, however, that almost paradoxically one of the most significant aspects of that identity is the place of the Sudan as a special link between different cultural patterns and socio-political styles. The Sudan is both a bridge and a melting pot, and this provides the foundation of its unique character.
