The Argument for Ethiopian Federalism

 The Conversation published on 26 November 2023 a commentary titled "What Is Federalism? Why Ethiopia Uses This System of Government and Why Its Not Perfect" by Bizuneh Yimenu, University of Birmingham.

The primary aim of Ethiopian federalism is to accommodate the country's diverse ethnic groups.  The author argues that federalism, in spite of its imperfections, remains the best political system for Ethiopia.
