- Abstract
"Understanding Ethiopia's Tigray war" is a comprehensive analysis of the complex and devastating conflict between the Ethiopian government and the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) from 2020 to 2022. The book explores the historical context of Ethiopia, including shifts in political power and tensions between centralized and decentralized power struggles. It also examines contemporary politics, including Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali's rise to power and Eritrea's role in escalating the conflict. The book details the military operations, humanitarian crisis, and the use of sexual violence and hunger as weapons. It also addresses the dangerous rhetoric and hate speech that exacerbated the war and emphasizes the need for dialogue, reconciliation, and tolerance among Ethiopia's ethnic groups. The book concludes with a summary of themes and lessons learned from the analysis. Overall, it provides valuable insights into the Tigray crisis and its broader implications in the Horn of Africa.
