Tubu Trouble: State and Statelessness in the Chad–Sudan–Libya Triangle (HSBA Working Paper 43)

Available in:  ARABIC ¦ ENGLISH ¦ FRENCH

Tubu Trouble: State and Statelessness in the Chad–Sudan–Libya Triangle provides an overview of Tibesti’s recent history in order to better understand its current situation and context. It reviews the evolution of Tibesti’s socio-political environment over the past few decades, including the most recent MDJT war and its effects, the tentative and partial redeployment of state authority in the region, and the consequences of the fall of the Qaddafi regime in neighbouring Libya. It further discusses the repercussions of regional gold rushes since 2013 and the prospects for a renewed rebellion in northern Chad.
