The Politics of Diaspora

The contemporary international system allows accommodating newly emerging actors like the Diasporas. In this book the author tried to show how the Ethiopian Diaspora, as a newly emerging transnational actor, affects the domestic political development. This book took a deep analysis of the contribution of the Ethiopian Diaspora in USA for the domestic political development. In Ethiopian politics, it is usually difficult to find out points of agreement between the ruling party and opposition political parties. However, regarding the contribution of the Ethiopian Diaspora for the domestic political development, the author argues, there is communality of opinion between the government and the main opposition political parties.
