摘要
The spatial dimension of the protest locations in Khartoum during 2018-2019 Sudan nationwide uprising reveals a disconnection between shantytowns, where most people originated from Western and South Sudan, and other middle-class areas in the capital. This article tries to understand the reason behind that disconnection. For this purpose, we need to look into the history of political change in Sudan, specifically the previous uprisings of 1964 and 1985, to seize the dynamics of an opposition between two visions: on the one hand, an uprising against the corrupt northern elite-led government; on the other hand, an uprising against the post-colonial Sudanese State and its marginalization of people from peripheral regions.
