A (very) brief overview on how the media portrayal of the conflict in South Sudan doesn't reflect the reality of the conflict on the ground. I haven't gone into much detail on the dynamics of the conflict, but for those of you who are interested, I would recommend starting with Young's book 'The Fate of Sudan', along with Copnall's 'A Poisonous Thorn in Our Hears'. Le Riche and Arnold's 'South Sudan: From Revolution to Independence' is also good. For shorter articles on the conflict, I would mainly rely on reports from various organisations like ICG, HRW and Small Arms Survey. Some good links are: http://www.smallarmssurveysudan.org/fileadmin/docs/working-papers/HSBA-WP-20-Armed-Violence-Southern-Sudan.pdf http://www.hrw.org/reports/2014/08/07/south-sudan-s-new-war http://www.crisisgroup.org/en/regions/africa/horn-of-africa/south-sudan/223-sudan-and-south-sudan-s-merging-conflicts.aspx Jok and Hutchinson have also done some great work on identity issues in South Sudan - they have both written a lot but I would particularly recommend http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/525368?sid=21105962592633&uid=4&uid=2&uid=3738032 If you have any questions/comments/requests for further reading, please either leave a comment or email us at [email protected] Thanks for watching!
