This review is from: The Politics of Liberation in South Sudan (Paperback)
I found this book years ago in a Nairobi bookstore when I was the Sudan researcher for a human rights organization and after I read it I made it my business to hunt down the author and tell him how enormously useful this was to me. It fills in the usually hidden history inside the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM), the long-lived rebel group initially inspired by leftist politics which soon veered toward nationalism against the repressive dictatorial Islamist regime in Khartoum. It is an honest and serious insider's story that few, mid-way through the struggle, would admit to. The edition I read was written in about 1995, and I don't know if it has been updated, but it is well worth having and reading for those concerned about and interested in southern Sudan. I believe this book won a prize for the best nonfiction written by an African author in that year; it was also published by a regional publisher in Uganda. It stands out among outsiders'and idealized whitewashes of the rebel movement. Highly recommended.
