Abstract

In Ethiopia, different political reforms have taken place. Following this, the country circled viciously into wars at many times. The Derg regime deposed Emperor Haile Selassie in 1974. And the Derg was defeated by the Ethiopian People Revolutionary Democratic Front coalition party in 1991. Albeit the coalition party ruled Ethiopia for more than 27 years, it obliged to make political reform because of high protest from Oromo youths. However, there are debates among scholars regarding the success of current political reforms in Ethiopia. It needs the attention of scholars and political scientists to examine the vicious circle of Ethiopian political reforms. This study addresses the knowledge gaps concerning the prospects and challenges of current political reform in Ethiopia. The finding of this research reveals that the beginning of the political reforms was hopeful because of released political prisoners, returned an exiled political opponents, Ethio-Eritrea rapprochement, and empowerment of women. Later, the constitutional crisis, detentions of many people and opponents, violations of fundamental rights, and war between the central government and the Tigray Region challenged the reforms. It concluded that the Ethiopian political reform circled viciously and could not realize the intended goals because there is mass detention, killing, and eviction like previous governments. The researcher recommended that the detained people and opposition political parties need to be released and come to the table discussion and debate to realize the reform and ensure democratization.

摘要

在埃塞俄比亚，已经进行了不同的政治改革。此后，该国多次恶行参战。德尔格政权于1974年罢免了海尔·塞拉西皇帝。德尔格政权在1991年被埃塞俄比亚人民革命民主阵线联盟击败。尽管联盟政党统治埃塞俄比亚已有27年以上，但由于受到来自埃塞俄比亚的强烈抗议，该政党不得不进行政治改革。奥罗莫青年。但是，学者们对埃塞俄比亚当前政治改革的成功进行了辩论。研究埃塞俄比亚政治改革的恶性循环需要学者和政治学家的注意。这项研究解决了有关埃塞俄比亚当前政治改革的前景和挑战的知识空白。这项研究的发现表明，由于释放了政治犯，返回了流亡的政治反对派，埃塞俄比亚-厄立特里亚和解以及妇女赋权，政治改革的开始是充满希望的。后来，宪法危机，许多人和反对者遭到拘留，侵犯基本权利以及中央政府与提格雷地区之间的战争对改革提出了挑战。结论是，埃塞俄比亚的政治改革恶性循环，无法实现预期的目标，因为像以前的政府一样，遭到大规模拘留，杀害和驱逐。研究人员建议，需要释放被拘留的人民和反对派政党，并进行讨论和辩论，以实现改革并确保民主化。
