Abstract
As the violent civil war in South Sudan comes to a formal end, peace is made by power-sharing between political competitors. Crucial positions are not elected but distributed through a 'warlord politics', providing rewards to those who 'went to the bush' to fight the war. Bruno Braak describes this process with the example of a rebel commander-turned-governor in the country's Western Equatoria State. |
