Chris Blattman weighs in on an interesting discussion about what South Sudan’s government should do now.
Battlman also recommends Ken Opalo’s blog. Check it out.
I missed this piece from Kal last week, but it’s still relevant. He writes about how bin Laden’s death might affect al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM).
Here are three worthwhile posts on areas of Africa I don’t normally cover:
- John Campbell on Liberia’s elections.
- Jason Stearns, “Transitional Justice in Rwanda and Great Lakes.”
- US State Department, “Strengthening Relationships with South Africa’s Young Leaders.”
Joshua Keating writes on remittances, and includes a nice map.
