This book explores the complex interrelationships between multi-party elections and traditional authorities in Ethiopia and is based on nine case studies of the country's 2005 regional and national elections, which were contested. Subjects addressed include: an introduction to traditional authorities and multi-party elections in the country, electoral politics in the Nuer cultural context, the power of clans and social strata in the Wolayta elections, urban youth and relations of power, customary institutions in contemporary politics in Borana Zone in Oromia, and inherited status and parliamentary elections in Dawro in southern Ethiopia. Editors Tronvoll (human rights, U. of Oslo, Norway), Hagmann (visiting scholar, U.C. Berkeley), and eight co-authors contributed to the book.
