Reimagining Pan-Africanism
The Soweto Uprising
Nieftagodien argues that the Soweto uprising served as both an inspiration and a template for a second wave of unrest in the 1980s, which eventually led to apartheid's demise. His assessment is both lucid and compelling. It reminds us the that the struggle against apartheid did not just revolve around the ANC or famous leaders, but gained strength from young people who worked for change at the grassroots and who fought against great odds. - Afric…
Democracy and Peace in the Age of Globalization
This article considers the impact of globalization on peace and democracy, especially in Africa. Peace is essential for orderly life and democracy is the paramount political value of our epoch. Are democracy and globalization compatible? They can be under certain conditions. Can globalization guarantee peace? Yes, if it can help in addressing the problems of poverty.

Can We Expect More than Symbolic Support
When I think about the extraordinary writing and speaking phenomenon by the name of Barack Obama, who also happens to be the President of the United States of America, the most powerful country in the world, I can't help asking myself, what can he do for Africa? I ask this not only because he is a son of Africa, but also because I hear in his speeches the words of a man deeply committed to human values, and therefore concerned with the predicamen…

Creating a Constitution for Eritrea
The American Dilemma on the Horn
The conflict in the Horn of Africa and its internationalisation since 1977 has stimulated many arguments in Amercian policy-making circles on whether the costs of expanded involvement in the region are coming to outweigh the strategic and other benefits. The most intense phase of this controversy has followed the post-1978 realignment of forces in the region, which transformed Somalia into an ally of the United States, and Ethiopia, long a close …

The Bank has become the foremost multilateral international lending agency, with an expanding role covering variety of sectors and involving billions of dollars worth of loans to the Third World, on terms that are not available from commercial banks. As its role expanded, the Bank began to draw increasing attention, both favo…

Conflict and Intervention in the Horn of Africa

For example, Emperor Haile Selassie was a traditional ruler with modern pretensions. When faced with a disastrous situation such as the …
Constitutional Development in Ethiopia
The origin and character of Ethiopian central institutions can be understood by reference to at least four main factors: the religious history of the country; its geography; its internal wars; and the advent of Islam, which cut it off from the World outside for several centuries, and affected the course of its history
