Beschreibung:
Water, Civilisation and Power in Sudan offers an alternative account of how water policy, violence, and economic modernisation are linked.
1. Prologue: the inauguration of the Merowe dam; 2. State building, the environment, and the civilisation mission; 3. Hydraulic civilisation and land of famine: the crafting of the Sudanese state and its sources of power; 4. Mashru Al-Hadhari: the rise of Sudan's Al-Ingaz regime and its civilisation project; 5. The hydro-political economy of Al-Ingaz: economic salvation through 'dams as development'; 6. The geopolitics of the Nile: Khartoum's dam programme and agricultural revival in the global economy; 7. Military-Islamist state building and its contradictions: mirages in the desert, South Sudan's secession, and the new hydropolitics of the Nile; 8. Conclusion: water, civilisation, and power.
