Extractions: Carlos, refugee worker These are Colombia's displaced people, the strikingly-visible evidence of the chaos wreaked by this civil war. If peace efforts fail, there are fears that thousands more could soon be driven from their homes across the Colombian countryside, to end up here. "I think that soon, around 15,000 displaced people are going to arrive here," said Carlos, the head of an organisation which represents refugees from the civil war. Gun culture "It's extremely sad because many innocent people are going to die. If there's no peace, what can we hope for?" asked Carlos gloomily, when it looked like the peace talks were going to collapse.

Extractions: Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) With the exception of a fragile peace established by negotiations between southern Sudanese insurgents (the Anya Nya) and the Sudan government at Addis Ababa in 1972, and lasting until the resumption of the conflict in 1983, southern Sudan has been a battlefield. The north-south distinction and the hostility between the two regions of Sudan is grounded in religious conflict as well as a conflict between peoples of differing culture and language. The language and culture of the north are based on Arabic and the Islamic faith, whereas the south has its own diverse, mostly non-Arabic languages and cultures with few exceptions non-Muslim, and its religious character was indigenous (traditional or Christian). The origins of the civil war in the south date back to the 1950s. On August 18, 1955, the Equatoria Corps, a military unit composed of southerners, mutinied at Torit. Rather than surrender to Sudanese government authorities, many mutineers disappeared into hiding with their weapons, marking the beginning of the first war in southern Sudan. By the late 1960s, the war had resulted in the deaths of about 500,000 people. Several hundred thousand more southerners hid in the forests or escaped to refugee camps in neighboring countries. By 1969 the rebels had developed foreign contacts to obtain weapons and supplies. Israel, for example, trained Anya Nya recruits and shipped weapons via Ethiopia and Uganda to the rebels. Anya Nya also purchased arms from Congolese rebels. Government operations against the rebels declined after the 1969 coup, and ended with the Addis Ababa accords of 1972 which guaranteed autonomy for the southern region.

Crossroads: Middle School Unit VI 7. As a concluding activity, students should create a poster or other visual project,such as produce a video, that depicts how the civil war affected people. http://www.askeric.org/Virtual/Lessons/crossroads/sec4/Unit_6/Unit_VIQ4.html
Extractions: Objectives: The students will be able to: 1. identify strengths and weaknesses of the Union and Confederacy. 2. describe how people were affected by the Civil War. 3. explain why the Civil War is referred to as the first modern war. 4. analyze photographs and draw conclusions about life during the Civil War. 5. create a visual representation depicting the war's impact on people. Description of lesson/activity: 1. In Question/Problem 3, students looked at the causes of the Civil War. In Question/Problem 4, students will examine the war itself. Students have a natural interest in this topic and the teacher can capture this interest by focusing on how the war affected individual Americans. The following is a guide for teaching the Civil War. 2. Background on the war is essential. The teacher should have students examine the strengths and weaknesses of the Union and the Confederacy. Students should study one or more battles of the war to understand some of the strategy that shaped the course of the war. The study of the battles of Gettysburg, Shiloh, and Antietam would be useful for this purpose. 3. The focus of this question should be on the people whose lives were impacted by the war. There are a variety of ways to do this:

Extractions: Computer Models Civil War: Political Violence and Robust Settlements This woman was interviewed by Wood during the civil war. She lived in Tenancingo, a small town in central El Salvador, at the time of the photo. Before the war, she and her extended family lived in a hamlet just north of the town and participated in Christian communities led by lay catechists trained in liberation theology. Many members of her family were killed by government forces during a period of indiscriminate violence that culminated in the bombing of Tenancingo by the Salvadoran Air Force during an occupation of the town by guerrilla forces. Photo: Elisabeth Jean Wood Some of the most devastating and protracted conflicts in history have not been between opposing nations but between factions within the same nation. Clashes such as those in Bosnia, Angola, and the Middle East illustrate the fact that civil war has become a growing threat to contemporary civilization. In fact, 95 percent of all conflicts since the end of the Cold War have been civil wars. One SFI visiting research professor, Elisabeth Jean Wood, is bent on finding out what factors permit peace to come to countries caught in the vise of civil war. She brings to the topic scientific objectivity laced with compassion borne of experiencing the ravages of war first hand.
