During the imperial regime, the country was divided into three administrative units: prov­ ince, awraja (sub-province), and woreda (district). The m ikitl woreda. (sub-district) was in use in the 1950s and 1960s but was abolished later. The Derg retained the three-tier system but introduced further complications in 1986. Provinces were split into two, and so-called “autonomous regions" were created. These “regions”, which included Tigrai, Afar and Ogaden, were given limited rights of internal self-rule. Until this date, and all through the imperial period, Wollo, for ex­ ample, was one province with twelve awrajas. From 1986, it was split into two provinces, called North and South Wollo. The present government has redrawn the country’s ad­ ministrative map along ethnic lines, and changed the bounda­ ries of former units. The country now is divided into nine eth­ nic-based politico-administrative units called K illils, each one of which is further divided into Zones and woredas. Below the woreda is the kebelle, which is now formally the lowest admin­ istrative unit. In a way, the present kebelle marks the return of the m ikitl woreda but in a different guise. The Zone is in many instances approximately the same as the province during the Derg in post-1986 period or earlier, but the awraja has been abolished. The term KiUil is rendered as Region in English in official documents but 1 prefer the Amharic term bccausc it is less confusing. The spelling of Ethiopian place and personal names is not standardized and the same name may appear under dif­ ferent spellings. Thus, for example, Wollo may also appear as Wello, Welo, or Wallo. I have retained older spelling* where these are widely used, otherwise I have followed my own rules. References are given at the end of each essay. Following customary practice, Ethiopian authors are listed alphabetically by theirfirst name A brief note on the meaning of the terms “agrarian’’ and “agriculture/agricultural" as used in this work. Hie word “agri­ cultural'’ (or “agriculture") refers to the cultivation of the soil, the “technicalities of forming’’ in Marc Blochs words, and em­ braces such activities as land and livestock management, crop­ ping practices, and labor techniques. “Agrarian” on the other hand refers to the land and the social, economic and ownership institutions pertaining to it. It includes rights to land, class and power relations, and structures of production and appropria­ tion. Thus, the latter term is much broader than the former. Acknowledgment I would like to thank my friend Yeraswork Admassie who read parts of the book in draft and whose constructive criticism was very valuable.

  • Conflict Prevention in the Greater Horn of Africa
    UNITED STATES INSTITUTE OF PEACE Simulation on Conflict Prevention in the Greater Horn of Africa This simulation, while focused around the Ethiopia-Eritrea border conflict, is not an attempt to resolve that conflict: the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) already has a peace plan on the table to which the two parties in conflict have essentially agreed. Rather, participants are asked, in their roles as representatives of OAU member states, to devise a blueprint for preventing the Ethiopian-Eritrean conflict from spreading into neighboring countries and consuming the region in even greater violence. The conflict, a great concern particularly for Somalia and Sudan where civil wars have raged for years, has thrown regional alliances into confusion and is increasingly putting pressure on humanitarian NGOs and other regional parties to contain the conflict. The wars in the Horn of Africa have caused untold death and misery over the past few decades. Simulation participants are asked as well to deal with the many refugees and internally displaced persons in the Horn of Africa, a humanitarian crisis that strains the economies – and the political relations - of the countries in the region. In their roles as OAU representatives, participants in this intricate simulation witness first-hand the tremendous challenge of trying to obtain consensus among multiple actors with often competing agendas on the tools of conflict prevention.

  • Bibliographic Guide to Further Reading
    BIBLIOGRAPHIC GUIDE TO FURTHER READING The historical, memoir, travel, and technical literature on Ethiopia is immense and continually growing. A complete bibliography would require a very thick volume. Included below are most of the major books cited in the text. Journal articles, pamphlets and monographs are not included. Many worthwhile books from my own collection not specifically referenced in the footnotes have been added. Books in languages other than English, German, French, Italian and Portu­ guese are not listed. Among the most valuable sources for research on Ethiopia are the proceedings of the triennial International Ethiopian Studies Conferences (IESC), the most recent of which were held in East Lansing, Michigan in September 1994 and in Kyoto,Japan in Decem­ ber 1997. The former produced 2,372 pages of papers published as New Trends in Ethiopian Studies (2 vols. Red Sea Press, No. 1994). The latter resulted in 2,345 pp. of papers published as Ethiopia in Broader Perspective (Shokado, Kyoto, 1997, 3vols). The 14th IESC is scheduled to take place in Addis Ababa in November 2000. Many other volumes of conference proceedings have been published in Ethiopia and elsewhere during the past three decades. With only a few except­ ions, these have not been listed below.

  • Periodic Monitoring Report Working 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document – Ethiopia Group
    DRMTechnical Periodic Monitoring Report Working 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document – Ethiopia Group Covering 1 Jan to 31 Dec 2016 Prepared by Clusters and NDRMC Introduction The El Niño global climactic event significantly affected the 2015 meher/summer rains on the heels of failed belg/ spring rains in 2015, driving food insecurity, malnutrition and serious water shortages in many parts of the country. The Government and humanitarian partners issued a joint 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document (HRD) in December 2015 requesting US$1.4 billion to assist 10.2 million people with food, health and nutrition, water, agriculture, shelter and non-food items, protection and emergency education responses. Following the delay and erratic performance of the belg/spring rains in 2016, a Prioritization Statement was issued in May 2016 with updated humanitarian requirements in nutrition (MAM), agriculture, shelter and non-food items and education.The Mid-Year Review of the HRD identified 9.7 million beneficiaries and updated the funding requirements to $1.2 billion. The 2016 HRD is 69 per cent funded, with contributions of $1.08 billion from international donors and the Government of Ethiopia (including carry-over resources from 2015). Under the leadership of the Government of Ethiopia delivery of life-saving and life- sustaining humanitarian assistance continues across the sectors. However, effective humanitarian response was challenged by shortage of resources, limited logistical capacities and associated delays, and weak real-time information management. This Periodic Monitoring Report (PMR) provides a summary of the cluster financial inputs against outputs and achievements against cluster objectives using secured funding since the launch of the 2016 HRD.

Chapter 1 discusses the background to the revolution and introduces the factors that became important in the causes and outcomes of the revolution. Part one (Chapters 2 and 3) is concerned with the collapse of the old-s£ate in 1974. Chapter 2 deals with the urban popular uprising of early 1974 which followed in the wake of the structural crisis. Chapter 3 deals with the capture of power by a group of junior officers and privates (the Derg) claiming to represent the security forces. 1974 to 1977 discusses under part two (chapters 4 6) can be taken as the formative years of the post­ revolutionary order.

  • Decolonial Embodied Historiography: Female Performing Bodies, Revolutions and Empires in Ethiopia a DISSERTATION SUBMITTED to T
    Decolonial Embodied Historiography: Female Performing Bodies, Revolutions and Empires in Ethiopia A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Surafel Wondimu Abebe IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Dr. Michal Kobialka – Co-Adviser Dr. Rachmi Diyah Larasati – Co-Adviser November 2018 © Surafel Wondimu Abebe 2018 i Acknowledgements My special gratitude goes to Ethiopian female artists. I had the privilege to think with and be inspired by some of these women. My curiosity about female performers’ history of resistance began in the 1990s when I had informal conversations with artist Asnakech Worku (1935-2011) and Telela Kebede at the foyer of the Ethiopian National Theatre. I always treasure Professor Rachmi Diyah Larasati’s multifaceted generosity. I came to graduate school due to her. She became my professor, mentor and co-advisor. Without the critical social and intellectual spaces that she created to students of the global south, I would not be able to survive the challenges of graduate school and strive to become a better human being. I also owe a very deep sense of gratitude to my co-advisor Professor Michal Kobialka who nurtured my intellectual growth through close mentorship and critical scholarship. Working with Professor Kobialka was a rare opportunity, a rewarding challenge, and an honor. A big thanks to him! Two of my committee members, Professors Margaret Werry and Shaden Tageldin also shaped the ways in which I developed my dissertation. As a DGS of the Department of Theatre Arts and Dance, as my professor, and as the chair of my committee, Professor Werry taught and guided me through graduate school.

Department of Geography and Regional Studies University of Miami Table of Contents 1 Levels of Analysis and the South Wollo 1 2 Spatial Analysis in the South Wollo 5 3 Data Issues within the South Wollo 7 References 9 Appendix A: Trip Report for Michael Shin 10 1 This report provides a preliminary account of how a geographical information system (GIS) can be integrated within the BASIS research program in Ethiopia, and provides recommendations for its development and use. Part I shows how data from different levels of analysis, and diverse sources, are integrated into a comprehensive food security database for the South Wollo. Spatial analyses which can be used to organize, inform and extend the on-going market surveys and market inventories in the South Wollo are illustrated in Part II, and the final section provides suggestions for future data collection efforts. Data for this report were collected by Dr. Michael Shin during his visit to Ethiopia between 27 July 1999 and 7 August 1999, which was shortened by approximately one week due to inclement weather and sporadic travel times. Presentation graphics within this report were created with the ArcView (version 3.1) GIS distributed by Environmental Systems Research, Incorporated, and MacroMedia FreeHand (version 8.0.1) graphic design software. Due to high start-up costs, both financially and in terms of technical capacity building which are documented in Shin (1998), subsequent GIS analyses for the South Wollo food security project should be conducted in the United States.

More than 10.2 million people required relief food assistance at the peak of the drought in April. To meet people’s needs, the Government of Ethiopia and humanitar- ian partners issued an initial appeal for 2016 of US$1.4 billion, which increased to $1.6 billion in August.
