Περίληψη: International organizations frequently use democratic transitional agreements as the primary framework for restoring peace after intrastate conflict. These postconflict peacebuilding efforts often result in transitional peace agreements that include a version of interim governance, typically with some power-sharing component, that aims to end armed conflict and usher in democratic elections after a set period. By examining Sudan’s 2022 Political Framework Agreement (PFA) and South Sudan’s 2018 Revitalized Peace Agreement (R-ARCSS), this Note critiques the linear transition logic at the core of transitional peacebuilding. It argues that these transitional agreements tend to entrench conflict, exacerbate human rights violations, and marginalize grassroots demands for democracy. This Note proposes a reorientation of transitional peacebuilding by straying away from the standardized transitional sequence, reframing conceptions of national ownership, and leveraging the UN Peacebuilding Commission to better recognize transitions as ends in themselves, maintaining democratic participation and respect for human rights at every stage of the transition process.
