In July 2011, South Sudan was granted independence and became the
world's newest country. Yet just two-and-a-half years after this
momentous decision, the country was in the grips of renewed civil
war and political strife. Hilde F. Johnson served as Special
Representative of the Secretary-General and Head of the United
Nations Mission in the Republic of South Sudan from July 2011 until
July 2014 and, as such, she was witness to the many challenges
which the country faced as it struggled to adjust to its new
autonomous state. In this book, she provides an unparalleled
insider's account of South Sudan's descent from the ecstatic
celebrations of July 2011 to the outbreak of the disastrous
conflict in December 2013 and the early, bloody phase of the
fighting. Johnson's frequent personal and private contacts at the
highest levels of government, accompanied by her deep knowledge of
the country and its history, make this a unique eyewitness account
of the turbulent first three years of the world's newest - and yet
most fragile - country.
