Ethiopia: A Country Study is a comprehensive and detailed examination of the history, culture, politics, and economy of Ethiopia. Authored by Thomas P. Ofcansky, a noted scholar of Ethiopian studies, this book provides an in-depth look at one of Africa's most unique and complex nations.The book begins with a brief overview of Ethiopia's geography, including its diverse landscapes and natural resources. It then delves into the country's rich history, from its ancient kingdoms and empires to its more recent struggles with colonialism and political instability.Ethiopia's culture is also explored in depth, with chapters devoted to topics such as religion, language, music, and art. The book also examines the role of women in Ethiopian society, as well as the country's diverse ethnic groups and their contributions to national identity.The political landscape of Ethiopia is a major focus of the book, with detailed analyses of the country's various political parties, its system of government, and its relations with neighboring countries. Ofcansky also provides an in-depth look at Ethiopia's economy, including its agricultural sector, its natural resources, and its growing industries.Overall, Ethiopia: A Country Study is an essential resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this fascinating and complex nation. With its detailed analysis and comprehensive coverage of a wide range of topics, this book is an invaluable guide for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the history, culture, and politics of Ethiopia.After assuming power in 1974, the military regime embarked on a program to improve the condition of peasants, but famine and hunger continued despite this effort, which was supplemented by substantial foreign assistance. Moreover, the escalation of the military campaign against the insurgent movements in Eritrea, Tigray, and the Ogaden forced thousands of Ethiopians to flee into neighboring countries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
