War and State Formation in Ethiopia and Eritrea
نویسنده
چکیده
Introductory Note I was particularly interested in Georg Sørensen’s paper, “War and state making – why doesn’t it work in the Third World?”, as this is a question with which I have struggled myself, including this paper on Ethiopia and Eritrea (which provide by far the best cases for a link between war and state formation in sub-Saharan Africa), which I wrote initially for a conference at CERI in Paris last year. I hope that it will provide a useful case study, to set alongside Georg’s broader discussion. CSC, February 2001

متن کاملStakeholders’ perspectives on facilitators of and barriers to the utilisation of and access to maternal health services in Eritrea: a qualitative study

This study aimed to examine facilitators of and barriers to the utilisation of and access to maternal health services in Eritrea. ...
متن کاملAloe pulcherrima – a beautiful Ethiopian endemic
The aloes of Ethiopia and Eritrea are moderately diverse. Edwards et al (1997) recognised 38 species, including Aloe vituensis which has yet to be located north of Ethiopia’s border with Kenya, so it is not, as yet, an Ethiopian Aloe. The most recent complete survey of aloes in Ethiopia and Eritrea (Sebsebe Demissew & Nordal, 2010) recognised 46 species, again including A. vituensis. Since that...
