Abstract

South Sudan has been described as a failed state which cannot provide services for its citizens and is still struggling on national security. The institutions that are supposed to protect national security and the citizens of South Sudan are weak, corrupt, ethnic divisions, they lack capacity, human resource is largely still absent, even the leaders at the different levels cannot be categorized as very appropriate. South Sudan could not be expected to build these institutions in the short period after independence from Sudan. The short period of time from the time of secession can also be a useful perspective to look at the history of southern Sudan in Sudan and how institutions in southern Sudan were neglected and gave no foundation to the people in southern Sudan to have a sense of institutions from their values, norms which were disrupted by the colonialists during the state formation process in Sudan. Even the constitutional making process to the final draft has been non-participatory. This all can be useful in explaining why South Sudan as a new state may be like the rest of the sub-Saharan Africa that were colonized and are facing national insecurity issues.
