dc.description.abstract | Following the secession of South Sudan from Sudan on July 9, 2011, both South
Sudan and Sudan have passed new citizenship laws with dramatic effects for the rights of
individuals on both sides of the new border. While in Sudan this consists of a series of
amendments to the 1994 Sudanese Nationality Act,the new South Sudan government
has promulgated an entirely new Nationality Act. I have recently published an extended
analysis of the resulting legal regime that describes its key features in some detail. This
paper builds on that initial analysis through an examination of the key resulting
protection threats for those South Sudanese remaining in Sudan and, in particular,
resulting de jure and de facto statelessness and the threat of mass expulsion. As such, this
article is intended to serve as something of a companion piece to my earlier paper. While
that paper examined the operation of the post-secession nationality regime in detail, this
article explains the resources available at public international law to address the key
failures of that regime. | en_GB |
