AFRICAN HISTORIES AND MODERNITIES SUDANS SOUT...

The book offers a history of the discourses and diplomacies of Sudan's civil wars. It explores
the battle for legitimacy between the Sudanese state and Southern rebels. In particular  it
examines how racial thought and rhetoric were used in international debates about the political
destiny of the South. By placing the state and rebels within the same frame  the book uncovers
the competition for Sudan's reputation. It reveals the discursive techniques both sides
employed to elicit support from diverse audiences  amidst the intellectual ferment of
Pan-Africanism  the Cold War  and Black liberation politics. It maintains that the interplay of
silences and articulations in both the rebels' and the state's texts concealed and complicated
aspects of the country's political conflict. In sum  the book demonstrates that the war of
words waged abroad represents a strategic  but often overlooked  aspect of the Sudanese civil
wars.
