The Hazards of Nation Building

The Sudan state have been in crisis for too long, and rarely did any of the numerous political organizations in the country take the risk and the burden to debate, ght and negotiate for the transformation

of the country from a decadent military coup prone underdeveloped

state to a viable democratic country; and from a religious fanatic and

racist state to a multi-cultural and multi-religious tolerant state. Since

independence only the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army

(SPLM/A) dared to challenge all the shades of Sudanese political spec

trum to transform the country into a viable economic and political

democratic and secular country, where citizenship is the criteria for

belonging to a nation.
