本文分析了2010年4月苏丹选举的结果,重点关注了北方苏丹政党制度的演变。有人认为,从民意调查中出现的最相关的因素是,自独立以来一直主导政治舞台的以宗教为基础的传统政党实际上消失了,以及自1989年以来在喀土穆巩固了伊斯兰-军事联盟。这一结果是过去20年来国家政策和长期社会经济变化共同作用的结果。“宗派制度”的消失标志着该国政治发展的结构性变化,其特点是不稳定的民主与军事政权之间似乎不可避免的循环。然而,投票未能满足那些希望多党选举能够创造一个包容性政治空间并希望“使团结具有吸引力”的人的期望。
This paper analyzes the results of the April 2010 Sudanese elections, focusing on the evolution of the party system in Northern Sudan. It is argued that the most relevant element emerging from the polls has been the virtual disappearance of the religious-based traditional parties that had dominated the political scene since independence and the consolidation of the Islamist-military coalition at in Khartoum since 1989. This outcome is the result of the combined effect of state policies pursued during the last two decades and of long-term socioeconomic changes. The disappearance of the “sectarian system” marks a structural change in the political development of the country, which has been characterized by a seemingly inescapable circularity between an unstable democracy and military regimes. Nevertheless, the vote has failed to meet the expectations of those who hoped that multiparty elections could create an inclusive political space and, hopefully, “make unity attractive.”
