| Abstract | "Despite its massive significance for the Horn of Africa and for other contemporary global revolutions, the histories of the 1974 Ethiopian revolution are surprisingly antiquated and oversimplified. Now, fifty years after the revolution, Etana H. Dinka brings together a who's-who of modern Ethiopian studies in order to offer this long-overdue analysis of the revolution and its legacies. This five-part collection offers new insights not only into the revolution itself, but also into issues such as the Red Terror, the EPRDF revolution of 1991, and Abiy Ahmed's repositioning of Ethiopia after 2018"-- Provided by publisher. |
