Sudan’s post-independence history is characterized by durable disorders. The peak of these disorders was reached in 2011 when the South Sudanese voted overwhelmingly for secession. Between 1956 and 2019, Sudan had three short democratic governments and long military dictatorships.

Sudan has experienced four transitional periods in its post-independence history, all of which have failed to achieve the desired change. The fifth transition, which began in 2019, was hindered by the October 2021 coup d’état and later by the April 2023 armed conflict, resulting in yet another failed transition. This book delves into an investigation of these failed transitions and the challenges they faced.

La Segunda Vuelta Electoral (SVE), doble vuelta electoral o balotaje, es una variante de las fórmulas electorales de mayoría, y en América Latina (AL) su incorporación a los sistemas electorales se ha focalizado sobre todo en las elecciones presidenciales, aunque existen países que la contemplan también para otros cargos, casi siempre ejecutivos.
En la política latinoamericana, la elección presidencial permanece como el momento cumbre para la ciudadanía, los partidos, los medios, así como en el interés internacional.
International IDEA believes that diversity can strengthen democracy and peaceful cohesion if values of inclusion and the right for equal participation for all citizens are protected. Without safeguarding these values, a diverse country like Sudan may find itself in a very risky situation that can lead to never ending violent conflicts.
This technical paper explores and analyses diversity management in Sudan’s democratic transition arrangement (2019–2021).

The region will face an unfavourable international context in which it is expected, according to the IMF, that there will be a simultaneous slowdown of the three leading economies (United States, China, and the European Union), whose effect will be weak global economic growth of 2.7%, which could even fall below 2% according to its Director Kristalina Georgieva. A third of the global economy is forecast to be in recession this year.
