Focusing on Greater Khartoum following South Sudanese independence
in 2011, In-Betweenness in Greater Khartoum explores the impact on
society of major political events in areas that are neither urban
nor rural, public nor private. This volume uses these in-between
spaces as a lens to analyze how these events, in combination with
other processes, such as globalization and economic
neo-liberalization, impact communities across the region. Drawing
on original fieldwork and empirical data, the authors uncover the
reshaping of new categories of people that reinforce old
dichotomies and in doing so underscore a common Sudanese identity.
Based on fieldwork largely collected during the CPA interim period
by Sudanese and European researchers, this volume sheds light on
the dynamics of change and the relationship between microscale and
macroscale processes which took place in Sudan between the 1980s
and the independence of South Sudan in 2011. Contributors' various
disciplinary approaches-socio-anthropological, geographical,
political, historical, linguistic-focus on the general issue of
"access to resources." The book analyzes major transformations
which affected Sudan in the framework of globalization, including
land and urban issues; water management; "new" actors and "new
conflicts"; and language, identity, and ideology.
