Abstract

Across Ethiopia, peasants have been dispossessed from their land to enable industrial expansion, but the promised benefits to local livelihoods have failed to materialise. Yonas Tesema draws on fieldwork to outline the impacts of the country’s top-down development approaches and the importance of empowering community voices.
