Abstract: | The term marginality denotes specific traits in the Sudan which place it significantly in a intermediate category between two distinct sectors of Africa. The Sudan is marginal between Arabs and Africans, between Muslim Africa and Christian Africa, between West Africa and Eastern African and between The Africa of homogenised mass nation-states and Africa of the deep ethnic cleavage.
