THE ECONOMY, GLOBAL FINANCE, AND 2
Part III: The Economy, Global Finance, and Inequality of Darfur
This analysis will evaluate the extent to which international political economy has
impacted Darfur; then, next would be a brief assessment in which the war in Darfur has impacted
global finance. Then later on a discussion on the role that global inequality and poverty have
played in Darfur will follows. Lastly, this paper will recommends primary strategies that are
believe will aid the main participants in Darfur to develop policies geared towards preventing a
repeat occurrence of the war in the future.
The Economy
International political economy is the two-way relationship between international politics
and international economics. The links between politics and economics run in both directions.
Events in the international economy often have political consequences. The study of
international political economy encompasses a variety of economic and political questions
concerning the movement of goods, money, people, and ideas across borders. States are only
partly able to control economic processes that occur entirely within their borders; they are even
less able to influence the activities that cross borders.
“Trade creates the potential for conflict, but because it is so lucrative, there are also
powerful incentives to work out differences through compromise and negotiation” (D’Anieri,
2014). Moreover, Sudan is underdeveloped; a disheartening situation that makes its constituent
poor regions to depend heavily on Khartoum for development projects. In this case, Darfur
presents a ‘special scenario’ its level of underdevelopment surpasses those of others and has
highly impoverished ‘almost all’ social categories in the region. The region's name means
"Home of the Fur"(Kjeilen, 2014). What is so strange about this is although the name region has
a historic tie with the people of the Flu tribe; today they represent the minority in the region.
