The Comprehensive Peace Agreement ended the second civil war in Sudan between the North and South. It helped create a separate southern region and a path for South Sudan to become independent. However, it didn’t fix many problems in the South, like fighting between different rebel groups, political arguments, and corruption.

In South Sudan’s Fateful Struggle, Steven C. Roach explains how these ongoing problems made it hard for South Sudan to become a peaceful and stable country. He talks about how bad leadership and the long-lasting effects of war divided the government and slowed down progress.

The government in South Sudan has been dealing with corruption, where leaders use their power to help themselves and their friends. They also use the threat of violence to stay in control, which makes it harder to create a fair and peaceful government. Roach believes that, for real peace to happen, leaders need to work with regular people and build systems that are fair for everyone.

Roach also explains how the country’s history, including its time as a colony, has affected the problems South Sudan faces today. He talks about how the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) became very powerful but made it harder for the country to have democracy and security. Roach also shares how groups of regular citizens are trying to push the government to create justice through things like a truth commission, a war crimes court, and programs to help people hurt by the war.
