'There really is very little published on some of these topics, and genuine field research of the kind which has been conducted by [this] number of contributors is rare.' · Justin Willis, University of Durham'This book brings together sixteen original, detailed field studies . . . [which] focus on localities across the northerly provinces of the Sudan as it was constituted [in 1989-2011] . . . The events and processes of this ’interim period’ following the civil war have deep roots in the past of the whole region, and continuing relevance to ’both Sudans’ today.' · Wendy James, University of OxfordBased on fieldwork largely collected during the CPA interim period by Sudanese and European researchers, this volume sheds light on the dynamics of change and the relationship between microscale and macroscale processes which took place in Sudan between the 1980s and the independence of South Sudan in 2011. Contributors’ various disciplinary approaches-socio-anthropological, geographical, political, historical, linguistic-focus on the general issue of 'access to resources.' The book analyzes major transformations which affected Sudan in the framework of globalization, including land and urban issues; water management; 'new' actors and 'new conflicts'; and language, identity, and ideology.Barbara Casciarri is Associate Professor at the Department of Sociology, University Paris 8.
