Repatriates and colonial auxiliaries
The reason why the notion of a ‘repatriate’ seems distant to native English-speakers is that the relevant experience has been unusual in British and American history. However, repatriation has occasioned deep political traumas in other countries. Let me provide some examples. In 1960, the Belgians scrambled out of the Congo amidst scenes of chaos and destruction. Tearful nuns and frightened settlers fled on hastily improvised flights back to Brus…

Resettled Refugees from Ethiopia
Success in flight from one's country of origin does not guarantee a secure place of refuge. Most refugees languish for years, even decades, in a neighboring country of first asylum. In general terms, relocation in the industrialized North depends upon individual initiative and application of receiving-country admission policy. This article identifies main waves of post-revolution refugees from Ethiopia who have managed to secure resettlement in t…

Out from Underdevelopment
Competitive Transition to Civilian Rule
Few Decisions exert a greater impact upon the polity and the pattern of public policy-making than those defining the nature of the political system itself. Transitions from military to civilian rule constitute a dramatic type of institutional change which is encountered with increasing frequency in the Third World. One type of 'planned withdrawal' initially involes little alteration in the distribution of power. This approach, which has been empl…
Household and Society in Ethiopia
State Land Allocation and Class Formation in Nigeria
The distribution of land-use rights both defines and shapes African political economy. Control over land can be utilised in various ways to accumulate capital for either autonomous or comprador investments in the domestic economy. The acquisition of official titles to land concomitantly affords the holder opportunities to exploit those who do not possess this valuable resource. For these reasons, command over land offers the state a powerful mean…
Analysing the Ethiopian Revolution
The Africana section of The Journal of Modern African Studies, Vol. XIX, No. 4, December 1980, pp. 685-91, features a 'cautionary tale' written by John M. Cohen that is devoted to a critique of published treatments of the Ethiopian revolution. In particular, Cohen purports to show that important data on post-coup food production had neither been consulted nor considered in a previously published study of the impact on the nation's agricultural se…

Ethiopia
In 1970, drought and famine began to afflict Ethiopia (Shepherd, 1975: ix; U.S.Depart. of State, 1974: 41; Wiseburg, 1975: 299). By 1974, almost 8 percent of Ethiopia's people had experienced starvation (Shepherd, 1975: 39) and more than two hundred thousand Ethiopians had perished in the famine's wake. The famine captured an exceptionally high level of public and media attention throughout the world. Considerable public concern arose within Ethi…
