    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Wits Institutional Repository on DSPACE TANZANIA’S ROLE IN BURUNDI’S PEACE PROCESS STUDENT: SAID J K AMEIR SUPERVISOR DR. ABDUL LAMIN In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Degree of Maters in the International Relations, The Graduate School for the Humanities and Social Sciences, Faculty of Humanitaries, UNIVERSITY OF WITWATERSRAND DECLARATION I declare that this research work is my own, unaided. It has neither been presented before at Wits University nor in any other Universities for any other award. Signed by Said J K Ameir ………………………… This …… day of ……. …. 2008 i DEDICATION I dedicate this work to my family which cares for most of my progress in life. First, my parents who raised and made me became who I am today. I pay special tribute to my father who aside from his decade-long illness has never hesitated to allow me to travel and never bothered by my absence. He has always inspired, motivated and supported me in all my endeavours in life including this one. My wife also deserves special tribute for the undue difficulties she went through, during my absence, when she gave birth to our lovely son Farez. Tribute also goes to my children Mgeni, Lulu and Kauthar for respecting my decision to come to Wits, something which shows that we share the same vision as a family. ii ACKOWLEDGEMENT This research work would not have been possible without the assistance and contribution, by one way or another, of many people. I would therefore like to express my gratitude to the following: First is my supervisor Dr Abdul Lamin for his professional guidance and his steadfast encouragement from the presentation of my first draft proposal to the last chapter.

Therefore, two foremost experts, who are also the co-chairs of our working Steve McDonald Wilson Center group – Ambassador Alan Goulty, former UK Ambassador to Sudan and Special Envoy to Darfur, and Ambassador Nureldin Satti, a senior Sudanese diplomat and former United Nations’ Special Representative of the Secretary General – have agreed to pull together these recent updates. They are written specifically from the views of the North and South. Ambassador Satti is currently living in Khartoum, and is well placed to fol- low events there closely. Ambassador Goulty, while now a resident in Washington, DC, travels frequently to South Sudan. WORKING GROUP SERIES PAPER NO. 2 While the papers give a valuable update on current events, including the ongo- ing conflicts in Abyei, South Kordofan, and the Nuba Mountains, the implementa- tion of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), North and South conflicts on oil revenue, and internal political rivalry and governance issues, they also examine the mindsets, beliefs, and biases of the leadership of both sides that have led to the current situation. Unique insights are given into the psyche of both entities, including an examination of the differences between a divided National Congress Party (NCP) in Sudan and the Islamist movements prominent in the “Arab Spring” events over the last year in their Arab neighbors.
