The revolution in Sudan does not seem to have any radical effect on the South Sudan peace process, however, political dynamics suggest it will be negatively impacted.
With functional and participatory institutions, South Sudan may well reclaim itself as a diverse nation within the regional and international environment.
Rather than being the instigator of conflict, ethnic divisions in South Sudan are a fault line along which clashes between elites are transmitted outwards.
A trend towards enforced public political loyalty has been enhanced by independence and the renewed wars and conflicts South Sudan faces.
While South Sudan is clearly facing great problems and even grave danger at the moment, there is still room for optimism. The people are resilient and determined, they are proud of their new nation, and they have a remarkable capacity for hope.
