Greater Tigray and the Mysterious Magnetism of Ethiopia

Description:

This is an analytical history of the role Tigrinya-speakers have played and are still playing in the history of Ethiopia and Eritrea, from Tigray's very ancient incipience to the origins of today's tragically fratricidal war.
Drawing from his huge corpus of publications on the Horn of Africa, Haggai Erlich sheds new light on major turning-points, as well as patterns of continuity. His history revolves around one key question: what was 'the mysterious magnetism' that held (and still holds) Ethiopia together? Erlich argues that there is an 'Amhara thesis' competing with a 'Tigrayan thesis' on what Ethiopia's political and administrative system should be, and that the region's history has often rotated around the axis of struggle between these two visions. The Tigrayans, though a minority, have had their periods of domination, the last ending in 2018. In between these eras, Tigrayans have been marginalised and weakened, including as the victims of their own internal rivalries, which culminated in the deep and bitter split between 'core' Tigrayans and Tigrayan Eritreans.
In the context of today's war, Erlich's insightful book offers an extremely timely introduction to Tigrayan history, and an indispensable key to understanding the roots of Ethiopia's present crisis.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mysterious Magnetism is the Gate Wall Red Sea

S. · May 19, 2024

As an Eritrean Tigrian, I see no mysterious magnetism for the federation of Habesha Nations ruled by former ethnic kings under the King of Kings. As the case has always been, Red Sea gate and wall tension will soon burst wide open. The flooding of the 130 million habesha nations, as migration-business-war mix, on both sides of the Red Sea seems enevitable.
