Keywords: Cattle Raiding, Traditional Justice, Agro-pastoralist, Mediation, and Peacebuilding
Abstract: This article examines the role of traditional justice and mediation in addressing cattle raiding conflicts among pastoralist communities in South Sudan. Cattle raids, historically a means of acquiring wealth and status, have grown into violent confrontations. Traditional justice mechanisms, led by respected elders, community members, and restorative principles. While effective, these systems face challenges from formal state institutions and armed groups. The paper advocates for integrating traditional and formal justice systems to strengthen conflict resolution.
