Description
The Peninsula brings you the third and final episode of its inaugural three-party series on Ethiopia. On this episode, we host Patrick Gilkes, a former senior policy advisor to the Ethiopian ministry of foreign affairs.
In our conversation with Patrick, we ask Why democracy has historical pushbacks in Ethiopia? In doing so, we critically examine the relationship between the big man syndrome and the history of state-building in Ethiopia in the late 19th to early 20th century, from the Hobbesian perspective of law and order.
