Coming into existence amid a wave of optimism in 2011, South Sudan
has since slid into violence and conflict. Even in the face of
escalating civil war, however, the people of the country continue
to fight for justice, despite a widespread culture of corruption
and impunity. Drawing on extensive new research, Rachel Ibreck
examines people's lived experiences as they navigate South Sudan's
fledgling justice system, as well as the courageous efforts of
lawyers, activists, and ordinary citizens to assert their rights
and hold the government to account. In doing so, the author reveals
how justice plays out in a variety of settings, from displacement
camps to chiefs' courts, and in cases ranging from communal land
disputes to the country's turbulent peace process. Based on a
collaborative research project carried out with South Sudanese
activists and legal practitioners, the book also demonstrates the
value of conducting researching with, rather than simply about
those affected by conflict. At heart, this is a people's story of
South Sudan - what works in this troubled country is what people do
for themselves.
