Managing Ethnic Conflicts in South Sudan: A Case Study of Jongeli Stat

By Kachuol Mabil Piok

This piece tries to make the conflicts in Jonglei State comprehensible to you by delving in to landmark historical events that have shaped inter-ethnic relations in Jonglei State. inter-communal violence in Jonglei has been attributed to number of factors by several authors: Tribalism, proliferation of small arms, ethnicity, cattle rustling, and marginalization among others. However, in this piece, I have attributed relevance of the above factors in inter-communal violence in Jonglei State to perennial absence of the state in the peripheries, to dominate the spaces and have monopoly over the instruments of violence.
