SUDAN INSIGHT ALERT: Economist - Sudan and Algeria overthrow despots but not their political systems

17/4/19: Economist – Sudan and Algeria overthrow despots but not their political systems

The Economist piece argues that true change will only come in Sudan if prevailing political systems are completely overturned.

 The Economist suggests that the military handing over power to civilians is unlikely, and that it would not equate to a definite positive outcome - implying that Al Bashir’s fall not translate to a transition towards democracy, as civil war or even a new dictatorship may come to rise.
