Why have war and coercion dominated the political realm in the
Sudans, a decade after South Sudan's independence and fifteen years
after the Comprehensive Peace Agreement? This book explains the
tragic role of international peacemaking in reproducing violence
and political authoritarianism in Sudan and South Sudan. Sharath
Srinivasan charts the destructive effects of Sudan's landmark
north-south peace process, from how it fuelled war in Darfur, the
Nuba Mountains and the Blue Nile to its contribution to Sudan's
failed political transformation and South Sudan's rapid descent
into civil war. Concluding with the conspicuous absence of 'peace'
when non-violent revolutionary political change came to Sudan in
2019, Srinivasan examines at close range why outsiders' peace
projects may displace civil politics and raise the political
currency of violence. This is an analysis of the perils of
attempting to build a non-violent political realm through neat
designs and tools of compulsion, where the end goal of peace
becomes caught up in idealised constitutional texts, technocratic
templates and deals on sharing spoils. 'When Peace Kills Politics'
shows that these methods, ultimately anti-political, will be
resisted--often violently--by dissatisfied local actors.
