Özet

Since conflict emerged in 2013, several peace agreements have been signed between different combatants in South Sudan. The latest of these was signed in 2020 and mixed reactions have emerged whether peace will be achieved or similar to the past agreements, collapse and expose the country to renewed violence. This chapter supports the latter argument that in the absence of a broad, inclusive, and a concise peace agreement that reflects the local realities and needs of South Sudan, the existing framework structured through a state-centric model will not be effective in building resilient peace in the country. The chapter argues for human security as an alternative people-centered approach/framework that can bridge the gaps created by the state-centric model that emphasizes stability created by power-sharing over other key issues like justice, unity, reconciliation, and development. The chapter concludes that by incorporating the seven key pillars in the peacebuilding processes, a more sustainable and responsive peace deal can be key to a new stable and developmental South Sudan.
