Abstract: Abstract Whereas throughout the previous chapters the focus of the analysis has been on the yardsticks determining peasant actions, in this chapter the livelihood approach is set against the Sudanese policies. Policy sectors relevant for peasant livelihood are agriculture, protection of the environment, trade, food distribution, women, labour markets and migration, social services and administration. Three questions must be considered concerning policy on these sectors: Did it extend peasant livelihood options? Did it reduce them? Or did it have neither of these two effects?
