Pages : 138
Book Description
In The Sudan, Francis discusses the issues that have contributed to the viral tribal wars in the southern parts of Sudan, and the ceaseless animosity that characterized relations between the Arabic North and the African South. The deep-rootedness of the hatred between the warring factions-whether of ethnic, cultural, religious, socio-political or sectarian origin-is something the author decries as a matter that will take years to undo in spite of the independence the nation just won. Francis firmly believes, though, that when the issues he raises in his well-researched book are understood and addressed with calculated urgency, the new nation will emerge stronger and take her rightful place alongside the great nations that have overcome debilitating issues of the kind South Sudan faces today. Rev. Francis Ayul Yuar is the Commissioner of Melut County, in the newly independent nation of South Sudan. Before his appointment to this critical position he co-founded Faith Evangelical Baptist College in Sudan (FEBAC), Zimmerman Bible College, in Abwong, Upper Nile, Frasam Investments LTD, in Kenya, and he is also the author of the best-selling memoir, This Is My Journey, a riveting account of his guerrilla days. It traces his life from the humble beginnings in Melut, to his days in the nationalistic SPLA, and finally to his appointment as the Commissioner of Melut County. Francis holds a Master of Theology degree from South Africa Theological Seminary (SATS) and is currently a doctoral candidate at Carey Theological College, in Canada. The book you now hold in your hand is a class-text sequel to the memoir and the two books should be read concurrently. Francis is married to his childhood sweetheart, Becky, and they have children who are only now learning of their father's freedom-fighting days in the unforgiving jungles of Nubi Mountains and the near-death experiences in the swamps of Upper Nile State.

Pages : 308
Book Description
Since 1998, which marked the end of the thirty-three-year New Order regime under President Suharto, there has been a dramatic increase in ethnic conflict and violence in Indonesia. In his innovative and persuasive account, Jacques Bertrand argues that conflicts in Maluku, Kalimantan, Aceh, Papua, and East Timur were a result of the New Order's narrow and constraining reinterpretation of Indonesia's 'national model'. The author shows how, at the end of the 1990s, this national model came under intense pressure at the prospect of institutional transformation, a reconfiguration of ethnic relations, and an increase in the role of Islam in Indonesia's political institutions. It was within the context of these challenges, that the very definition of the Indonesian nation and what it meant to be Indonesian came under scrutiny. The book sheds light on the roots of religious and ethnic conflict at a turning point in Indonesia's history.
