Opis

People who live in the countries of the "Horn of Africa" have faced pervasive and perpetual crisis for a long time: a crisis accentuated throughout the 1990s. This collection of essays examines different aspects of the crisis, addressing the acute conditions under which people live their lives. To marginalized indigenous groups, the crisis materializes itself as social experiences of terror. Contemporary social life in the Horn region is generally a state-orchestrted experience that terrorizes the majority of the people. The essays in this collection examine the important aspects of the social experience of this terror, a state terror often manifested in the violation of human rights, democracy, justice and freedom. Essay topics include: the contemporary historical and political development of the Horn of Africa in the context of globalization, with a historical sketch of each country in the region; an analysis of the production of terrorism, the art of statecraft and the inextricable link between terrorism and the production of power relations; and the relationship between ethnicity and national identity in Ethiopia, including an analysis of how state policies of successive Ethiopian ruling groups have marginalized and terrorized the Oromos.
