Produktbeschreibung

At the end of 1984, Sudan shot into the headlines as a result of famines, floods, locusts, political instability and civil war. In describing the scale of the collapse of state and economy, "Sudan After Nimeiri" emphasizes the extent of the country's current predicament and explains the difficulty and interrelationships of potential solutions. Among the issues discussed are environmental and ecological problems, economic collapse, famine, debt, refugees, the role of Islam in Sudanese politics, Nimeiri's downfall and the administrative problems facing the transitional and present governments.
