Abstract

This is the third case study chapter. It is devoted to the understanding of the trajectory that the southern part of Sudan and, more recently, South Sudan has been on since pre-colonial times. Tracing this trajectory helps us better appreciate the division or distance between the state and the society. It also helps us better appreciate the reasons behind why communities fend for themselves and why elections or engagement with the state, as in the case of Lebanon, has a different meaning for the South Sudanese than it does for people living in the West.
