The perils of development from above
The paper examines Ethiopia's program of large-scale land investments with special emphasis on the rapid expansion of these investments between 2008 and 2011 when huge tracts of agricultural land were leased out to foreign and domestic investors over a short period of time. It is estimated that the total land ceded to investors from the mid-1990s to the end of 2011 may be in the order of 3.00–3.5 million hectares. I shall present a discussion of …
Promoting Democracy in Postconflict Societies
Few would dispute the importance of donating funds and expertise to conflict-ridden societies—but such aid, however well meant, often fails to have the intended effect. This study critically evaluates international democratization assistance in postconflict societies to discern what has worked, what has not, and how aid programs can be designed to have a more positive impact. The authors offer a unique recipient perspective as they explore three …

Agrarian change and agrarian crisis
This article reviews the agrarian policies of post-revolution Ethiopia and discusses the evolution of relations between the peasantry and the military state in the period 1975-90. In broad terms, state policy changed rapidly from simple, home-flavoured populism in the latter part of the 1970s to hard-line Stalinism in the 1980s. The various rural policies that followed, such as collectivisation, villagisation and resettlement, and their effect on…
Rethinking socialism in the Third World
Revolution, though an important political phenomenon historically, seemingly remains so only in the Third World. Contemporary cases of revolution are all in poor, developing countries (Cuba, Cambodia, Mozambique, Angola, GuineaBissau, Ethiopia, Iran and Nicaragua). With the exception of Iran, the leadership of these revolutions has attempted to replace the old order with socialism. The relative success of socialism in these cases is of consequenc…

Investing in Tradition
Peasant Survival Strategies in Ethiopia1
This paper focuses on peasant farmers in Ethiopia, and their behaviour as serious famine sets in. In many of the last seventeen years the crop yields on rain-fed plots in drought-prone areas have failed to meet the requirements of the peasant farmers and their families. Significant numbers have received food aid either at distribution points or in the shelters which developed in 1973 and 1984. Seeking food relief from external sources, however, i…
