War of Visions
The civil war that has intermittently raged in the Sudan since independence in 1956 is, according to Francis Deng, a conflict of contrasting and seemingly incompatible identities in the Northern and Southern parts of the country. Identity is seen as a function of how people identify themselves and are identified in racial, ethnic, cultural, linguistic, and religious terms. The identity question related to how such concepts determine or influence participation and distribution in the political, economic, social, and cultural life of the country.

Six Months in Sudan
A memoir of a young doctor trying to heal a village on the brink of devastation chronicles the unthinkable cost of war for one community and a man's courageous effort to bring about lasting change, in spite of the many losses he endures.
Lost Boy, Lost Girl
One of thousands of children who fled strife in southern Sudan, John Bul Dau survived hunger, exhaustion, and violence. His wife, Martha, endured similar hardships. In this memorable book, the two convey the best of African values while relating searing accounts of famine and war. There’s warmth as well, in their humorous tales of adapting to American life. For its importance as a primary source, for its inclusion of the rarely told female perspective of Sudan’s lost children, for its celebration of human resilience, this is the perfect story to inform and inspire young readers.
The Fate of Sudan
In 2005, the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) ended one of Africa's most devastating civil wars and set the stage for the partition of Sudan, Africa's largest country. One of the most important peace agreements in African history, it has had decisive consequences for the entire Horn of Africa. Yet to date there has been little rigorous analysis as to why the parties signed the CPA, what strategies they adopted having signed the agreement, and the political consequences of state partition actually are. John Young argues forcefully that the birth of the independent state of Southern Sudan and the threat of further dismemberment of a rump northern Sudan are due to the failure of the approaches and ideologies of the main Sudanese parties, as well as a deeply flawed US-backed peace process that excludes civil society and other rebel groups. Written by someone directly involved in the Sudanese election and referendum processes, and featuring a wealth of first-hand evidence, this is a crucial examination of a topic of intense political and media interest.
John Garang & the Vision of New Sudan
The objective of this new book is to tackle the crux of Dr. John Garang's vision of the new Sudan. Roba Gibia shows the power greed and inhumane behavior of the ruling elites in the central government are the causes to the marginalization, suffering, war, deaths and destruction of the majority of the Sudanese people. The author concludes that considering Dr. Garang's vision of new Sudan, however, is the best if not the only way to keep the country united and enable the diverse Sudanese people coexist peacefully as one nation.
