Abstract
Since 2003, a complex civil war and a humanitarian crisis have engulfed Darfur, a remote region in western Sudan. A central characteristic of the conflict is the deliberate targeting of non-Arab civilians, which has left more than 200,000 people dead and another two million displaced. Given the character and scale of the violence, the region has attracted considerable outside attention from journalists, policy makers, academics, and international non-governmental organizations. Such attention has translated into high demand for information and analysis about the region. Some of that demand has been met by human rights organizations, journalists, and scholars, but most existing studies focus on the immediate antecedents and proximate causes of the civil war and violence. A deeper history of the region, one that examines the precolonial and colonial periods as well as the first decades of postcolonial rule, has been lacking. With this volume, M. W. Daly helps to fill that gap.
