  • The Surveillance of Ethiopian Women Athletes for Capital
    Tracking Work from the Wrist: The Surveillance of Ethiopian Women Athletes for Capital Hannah Borenstein Duke University [email protected] Abstract This essay explores the proliferating uses of GPS watches among women athletes in Ethiopia. Aspiring and successful long-distance runners have been using GPS watches in increasing numbers over the past several years, rendering their training trackable for themselves, partners, coaches, sponsors, and agents located in the Global North. This essay explores how the transnational dimensions of the athletics industry renders their training data profitable to systems of capitalist accumulation while exploring how athletes put the emerging technologies to work to aid in their pursuit of succeeding in the sport and work of running. New Metrics In 2013, when I was first living with young sub-elite athletes at a training camp in Ethiopia, nearly all runners wore basic digital watches. Casio was the leading brand, but any watch that had a time setting, a few alarms, and, crucially, the start-stop function, was a critical instrument for long-distance running aspirants. Watches that could record splits—different intervals of training—were coveted, but by no means the norm. Thus, the metric that everyone used to discuss training was time. Recovery runs were spoken about in terms of hours run: “one- Borenstein, Hannah. 2021. “Tracking Work from the Wrist: Surveillance of Ethiopian Women Athletes for Capital.” Catalyst: Feminism, Theory, Technoscience 7 (1): 1–20. http://www.catalystjournal.org | ISSN: 2380-3312 © Hannah Borenstein, 2021 | Licensed to the Catalyst Project under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial No Derivatives license Special Section: Self-Tracking, Embodied Differences, and the Politics and Ethics of Health twenty.” Speed sessions were broken down into minutes: “we did three minutes by eight with sixty seconds rest.” Athletes knew that this would need to be converted to kilometers for their performances, but conversations about training were discussed in terms of time.

  • Kanhaiya Kumar Singh a PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS STUDY of ETHIOPIAN FOOTBALL DURING 2008-2018 Dr. Kanhaiya Kumar Singh, Assistant
    International Journal of Physical Education, Health and Social Science (IJPEHSS) ISSN: 2278 – 716X www.ijpehss.org Vol. 7, Issue 1, (2018) Peer Reviewed, Indexed and UGC Approved Journal (48531) Impact Factor 5.02 A PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS STUDY OF ETHIOPIAN FOOTBALL DURING 2008-2018 Dr. Kanhaiya Kumar Singh, Assistant Professor Sports Academy, Bahirdar University, Ethiopia ABSTRACT The purpose of the study was to analyse the overall journey of Ethiopian National football at international level as well domestic level in last decade. In order to analyse the fact observation method has been used to collect data. Finding of the study reflects that Ethiopian national football is losing its position and credibility continuously in the last decade. It might be happened due to some socio-political issue the Ethiopian football federation, moreover for FIFA2014 Ethiopian national football team scored total 12 goals and conceded 21 goals and reached up to first qualifying round then Nigeria went to FIFA World Cup 2014. Further for FIFA 2018 (Russia), Ethiopian National Team reached up to second qualifying round and eliminated by COGO. Ethiopian Domestic football leagues are Premier League, Higher League and National League conducted every year, it is important to note that 70% winning position in Premier League went to one team i.e., Saint Gorge FC and rest 30% goes to other 15 playing teams. It clearly shows the lack of competitive balance in the most famous domestic league of a country. At the continent level in Champions League Country best domestic team scored 18th Rank out of 59 teams. In Super League (Winner of Champions League v/s Winners of Confederation Cup) Ethiopian football team has not seen anywhere.

  • Using Geospatial Techniques in the Selection of Potential Ecotourism Sites in Menz-Geramidir District, Ethiopia
    Using Geospatial Techniques in the Selection of Potential Ecotourism Sites in Menz-geramidir District, Ethiopia Baykedagn Taye 1 Sintayehu Legesse Gebre2,3* Dessalegn Obsi Gemeda2 Kefelegn Getahun1 Abstract Ecotourism is expressed as when tourists are attracted to a given geographic area (i.e. space) which has its own available natural, environmental, and socioeconomic resources by considering environmental sustainability, local benefit, and promotion. Space is an elementary part of ecotourism activities. Hence, the aim of this study is to identify potential ecotourism sites in Menz-geramidir district mainly by considering the natural features. Using weighting of each factor, three criteria and five-factor maps are identified, namely: landscape (land use land cover map), topography (elevation and slope map) and accessibility (road and river map). Those identified factor maps first ranked based on expert opinion, and then the weight of influence ofeach factor was computed by pair-wise comparison technique which is one of AHP method. The image classification was carried out in ERDAS imagine software using supervised image classification method. The image classification accuracy assessment indicates that the overall accuracy is 84% and the overall Kappa coefficient is 0.80. The final ecotourism potential sites model map was created based on the linear combination of factors with their respective weights in ArcGIS overlay extension and presented using FAO`s suitability scheme into four classes. The result showed that11% is highly suitable and lies to the eastern part of the study area. Generally,major suitable and moderately suitable area accounts for 75.6 % and marginally suitable area for 13.5 % and the not suitable area is 0.06 %.
