Sudan: The North-South Conflict in Historical Perspective

(1997) Kebbede, Girma

There is little need to repeat yet again this rather long history. Attention is only called here to the activities and policies of these colonial regimes which have contributed to the cleavage between the predominantly Muslim North and non-Muslim South.
