Trade Review

“This crucial volume addresses a clear gap in the existing literature by thoroughly studying Ethiopian civil activism in recent years. The book comes at an important moment of instability and change in Ethiopian politics, providing a wide range of extremely illuminating case studies of civil society activity and the constraints it has faced. It is particularly pleasing to see so many excellent Ethiopian authors contributing chapters, something that is unfortunately uncommon in international publications.” Tom Lavers, University of Manchester and editor of The Politics of Distributing Social Transfers: State Capacity and Political Contestation in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia
