It sheds light on the advent of the Ethiopian empire under Menelik II, its conquests and Arsi Oromo fierce resistance (1880-1900), the nature and legacy of Ethiopian imperial polity, centre-periphery relations, feudal political economy and its impacts on the newly conquered regions with a focus on Arsi Oromo country. The book also analyzes the root causes of the national political crisis including, but not limited to, the attempts at transforming the empire-state to a nation-state around a single culture, contested definition of national identity and state legitimacy, grievance narratives, uprisings, the birth and development of competing nationalisms as well as the limitations of the current ethnic federalism to address the national question in Ethiopia. 410 0$aAfrican social studies series ;$vv. 32. 606 $aCentral-local government relations$zEthiopia 606 $aSocial structure$zEthiopia 606 $aOromo (African people)$xPolitics and government 606 $aArsi (African people)$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aArsi (African people)$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aImperialism 607 $aEthiopia$xHistory$y1889-1974 607 $aEthiopia$xPolitics and government$y1889-1974 607 $aEthiopia$xEthnic relations 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCentral-local government relations 615 0$aSocial structure 615 0$aOromo (African people)$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aArsi (African people)$xHistory 615 0$aArsi (African people)$xHistory 615 0$aImperialism. 676 $a963.05 700 $aGnamo$b Abbas H$g(Abbas Haji)$0911511 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464677803321 996 $aConquest and resistance in the Ethiopian empire, 1880-1974$92041227 997 $aUNINA
