This volume documents the Sudanese government's campaign of
genocidal attacks and forced starvation against the people of the
Nuba Mountains in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Genocide by
Attrition provides powerful insights and analysis of the phenomenon
and bears witness to ongoing atrocities. This second edition
features more interviews, a new introduction, and a revised and
more detailed historical overview. Among the themes that link most
of the interviews are: the political and economic
disenfranchisement of the Nuba people by the government of Sudan;
the destruction of villages and farms and the murder and deaths of
the Nuba people; the forced relocation into so-called "peace camps"
and the impact of forced starvation. The book also documents the
frustration of the Nuba people at being left out of the
Comprehensive Peace Agreement signed between the South and the
North in 2005, President Omar al Bashir's threats against the Nuba
people, and the crisis in the Nuba Mountains since June 2011.
Genocide by Attrition provides a solid sense of the antecedents to
the genocidal actions in the Nuba Mountains. It introduces the main
actors, describes how the Nuba were forced into starvation by their
government, and tells how those who managed to survive did so.
Samuel Totten provides a valuable resource to study the imposition
of starvation as a tool of genocide.
