POST-CONFLICT SECURITY IN SOUTH SUDAN NEW From Liberal Peacebuilding to Demilitarisation

Nyambura Wambugu University of Juba, South Sudan Just eight years after the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) and two years after gaining independence, the world’s newest nation state descended once more into violence and civil war. Why have policies of liberal peacebuilding failed to bring lasting stability to the region? And what now for South Sudan? Wambugu considers the complex and overlapping issues that have afflicted the region and demonstrates the failure of the billions of dollars spent on liberal peacebuilding. She also elucidates the possibility of demilitarisation as a lasting and sustainable alternative path to peace for post-conflict states. 320 PAGES 216 X 138MM MARCH 2018 9781784536947 HARDBACK £62.00 / $99.00 INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF AFRICAN STUDIES e ebook available

TUNISIA UNDER BEN ALI

NEW

The History of an Authoritarian Regime, 1987-2011 Daniel Zisenwine Tel Aviv University This book looks at Tunisia under the rule of Ben Ali, from 1987 when he rose to power until the 2011 protests that led to his downfall. Zisenwine offers an analysis of this authoritarian regime from its early days, to the attempts in the 2000s to reform economically (but not, crucially, politically) and the societal discontent that eventually led to the 2011 protests and Ben Ali’s ouster. 256 PAGES 216 X 138MM JUNE 2018 9781784531850 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN MIDDLE EAST STUDIES e ebook available
