Abstract
This study explores the complex relationship between military coups, political instability, and humanitarian crises in Sudan and Guinea. By employing a purely literary methodology—analysing historical texts, policy documents, media reports, scholarly articles, and first-hand narratives—the research seeks to uncover the narratives and discursive patterns that shape understanding of how military takeovers influence human suffering and economic decline. The analysis reveals that military coups often serve as catalysts for destabilisation, which exacerbates humanitarian crises and hampers economic recovery. The study emphasises the value of discursive practices in framing political events and their human consequences, providing nuanced insights into the socio-political fabric of these nations and offering implications for policy and international intervention strategies.
