Book excerpt: This work traces the cultural and political history of the Oromo and their relationship with the Ethiopian state. In recent years, Ethiopia has experienced ethnic conflicts, divisions, and balkanization, including the emergence of Oromo nationalism and the notion of Oromia. Oromo are one of the largest ethnic groups in Ethiopia, generally referred to until recently as Galla -- a name of outside imposition. Since the 1970s, Oromohood and the assertion of the self-identifying name Oromo have forced themselves upon the awareness of the central Ethiopian state and external observers. This book narrates the history of the conquest of Oromo from the mid-19th century by successive Ethiopian emperors, and their subjugation and rule from Addis Ababa in the 20th century. It details the rise of pan-Oromo consciousness, the formation of the Oromo liberation front, and the potent force of Oromo ethno-nationalism today. Recent political processes in the region that have ramifications for Oromo nationalist aspirations are discussed. The author's perspective is in the radical intellectual tradition, and the theme of the book reflects current preferences for a redefinition of ethnic identity.

Download or read book Cine Ethiopia written by Michael W. Thomas and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, Ethiopian films have come to dominate the screening schedules of the many cinemas in Ethiopia’s capital city of Addis Ababa, as well as other urban centers. Despite undergoing an unprecedented surge in production and popularity in Ethiopia and in the diaspora, this phenomenon has been broadly overlooked by African film and media scholars and Ethiopianists alike. This collection of essays and interviews on cinema in Ethiopia represents the first work of its kind and establishes a broad foundation for furthering research on this topic. Taking an interdisciplinary approach to the topic and bringing together contributions from both Ethiopian and international scholars, the collection offers new and alternative narratives for the development of screen media in Africa. The book’s relevance reaches far beyond its specific locale of Ethiopia as contributions focus on a broad range of topics—such as commercial and genre films, diaspora filmmaking, and the role of women in the film industry—while simultaneously discussing multiple forms of screen media, from satellite TV to “video films.” Bringing both historical and contemporary moments of cinema in Ethiopia into the critical frame offers alternative considerations for the already radically changing critical paradigm surrounding the understandings of African cinema.

This book was released on 2011-07-10 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Territorial Conquest, Central Power and Local Autonomy in Ethiopia is made up of two articles:The first, "e;Adwa Victory, Menilek's Power and Local Autonomy in Wallagga Territory of Ethiopia: The Case of Leeqaa-Naqamtee and Leeqaa-Qellem (1896-1941),"e; analyzes the aftermath of the Battle of Adwa in the Macca Oromo territory of Wallagga with emphasis on issues of local autonomy in Leeqaa-Naqamtee and Leeqaa-Qellem vis-a-vis central power. This article challenges the views in the mainstream Ethiopian historiography that magnifies only one side of Adwa Victory. The second, "e;Integration and Resistance in the Ethiopian Empire State: The Case of Qellem (1886-1941),"e; attempts to analyze Addis Ababa-Qellem relations in the context of center-periphery theory. As a coffee-producing province at the extreme western border of the country, Qellem experienced series of politico-military pressures from the central government in Addis Ababa. Studies conducted so far by some Ethiopian and expatriate scholars argue that Qellem was totally integrated into the empire through its peaceful submission. However, the events during the Italian Occupation of Ethiopia (1935-1941) proved quite to the contrary. This work presents a critical appraisal of the interplay with emphasis on issues of integration and resistance.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative investigation into the root causes of the Ethiopian political upheavals in the second half of the twentieth century. During the 1960s and early 1970s, a majority of Ethiopian students and intellectuals adopted a Marxist-Leninist ideology with fanatic fervor. The leading force in an uprising against the imperial regime of Emperor Haile Selassie, they played a decisive role in the rise of a Leninist military regime. In this original study, Messay Kebede examines the sociopolitical and cultural factors that contributed to the radicalization of the educated elite in Ethiopia, and how this phenomenon contributed to the country's uninterrupted political crises and economic setbacks since the Revolution of 1974. Offering a unique, insider's perspective garnered from his direct participation in thestudent movement, the author emphasizes the role of the Western education system in the progressive radicalization of students and assesses the impact of Western education on traditional cultures. The most comprehensive study of the role of students in modern Ethiopian political history to date, Radicalism and Cultural Dislocation in Ethiopia, 1960-1974 opens the door for discussion and debate on the issue of African modernization and the effects ofcultural colonization. Messay Kebede is Professor in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Dayton and is author of Survival and Modernization -- Ethiopia's Enigmatic Present: A Philosophical Discourse [1999].

Download or read book Emirate Egyptian Ethiopian written by Avishai Ben-Dror and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-23 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 1875, two months after the takeover of the Somali coastal town of Zeila, an Egyptian force numbering 1,200 soldiers departed from the city to occupy Harar, a prominent Muslim hub in the Horn of Africa. In doing so, they turned this sovereign emirate into an Egyptian colony that became a focal meeting point of geopolitical interests, with interactions between Muslim Africans, European powers, and Christian Ethiopians. In Emirate, Egyptian, Ethiopian, Ben-Dror tells the story of Turco-Egyptian colonial ambitions and the processes that integrated Harar into the global system of commerce that had begun enveloping the Red Sea. This new colonial era in the city’s history inaugurated new standards of government, society, and religion. Drawing on previously untapped Egyptian, Harari, Ethiopian, and European archival sources, Ben-Dror reconstructs the political, social, economic, religious, and cultural history of the occupation, which included building roads, reorganizing the political structure, and converting many to Islam. He portrays the complexity of colonial interactions as an influx of European merchants and missionaries settled in Harar. By shedding light on the dynamic historical processes, Ben-Dror provides new perspectives on the important role of non-European imperialists in shaping the history of these regions.
