The artificial colonial creation that is the Sudan has been plagued for decades by civil wars between the Arabist government in Khartoum and black African Christian and animist secessionist movements in the south. In 2004 a new rent appeared in the national fabric as thousands of villagers in the remote western province of Darfur fled deliberate famine, mass rape, and the brutal tactics of the government sponsored 'jamjaweed' militias. Darfur is the first book to explore the sources of the conflict in Darfur and explain just what is at stake: the tenuous nature of the state and all its complex ethnic and religious layerings; the struggle to control the enormously rich oil resources; and the economic and strategic interests that give this conflict international significance.
