This and the next chapter (chapter 9) deal with inter-regional conflicts between the study regions and their neighbours. The federal restructuring carried out by dismantling the old unitary structure of the country led to territorial and boundary disputes. Unlike the older federations created by the union of independent units, which among other things have stable boundaries, creating a federation through federal restructuring leads to controversies and in some cases to violent conflicts. In the Ethiopian case, violent conflicts accompany the process of intra-federal boundary making. Inter-regional boundaries that divide the Somali region from its neighbours (Oromia and Afar) are ill defined and there are violent conflicts along these borders. In some cases, resource conflicts involving Somali, Afar and Oromo clans transformed into more protracted boundary and territorial conflicts. As will be discussed in this chapter, inter-regional boundary making also led to the re-examination of ethnic identity.

  • Immigration Appeal Tribunal Determination and Reasons
    ar MM (Risk-Return-Tuni) Somalia CG [2003] UKIAT 00129 IMMIGRATION APPEAL TRIBUNAL Date of Hearing : 3 October 2003 Date Determination notified: 04 November 2003 ……… Before: Mr P R Lane (Chairman) Mrs M L Roe Mr N Kumar, JP APPELLANT and Secretary of State for the Home Department RESPONDENT Representation For the appellant : Mr R. Blackford, counsel, instructed by Pearson & Winston For the respondent : Miss A. Holmes, Home Office Presenting Officer DETERMINATION AND REASONS 1. The appellant, a citizen of Somalia, appeals with leave against the determination of an Adjudicator, Mr C.B. Buckwell, sitting at Bromley, in which he dismissed on asylum and human rights grounds the appellant's appeal against the decision of the respondent to refuse his asylum claim and grant him only limited leave (which has in fact now expired). 2. The appellant's account was as follows. He said he was a member of the Tunni clan, living in Hamarwyne, Mogadishu, Somalia. He had suffered ill-treatment as a result of his membership of the Tunni clan, His brother had been killed. The family had attempted to relocate to the 1 coastal area in 1993 but had not been made welcome and thus returned to Somalia. 3. The appellant said that he was a businessman, selling goods from a shop. He had to pay protection money to bandits or ‘Mooryaan’ who particularly preyed upon minority clans whom the bandits knew ‘have no protection or help from their clans or from the majority clans’ (statement of 2 July 2002). 4 In that statement the appellant said that ‘At the beginning of this year [2002] I have to sell the shop, as I was no longer able to keep it under these conditions, I even sold it cheaper than the normal price in order to sell it quickly’.
