- Description
- The ways in which city form and urban planning have been recurringly used as politicalinstruments in Harar, Ethiopia, is the focus of this article in three parts. This inquiry is framed within the theoretical approach provided by anthropologist Setha LOW (1996). The empiricallyinformed arguement is that successive governments—Abyssinian, Italian, Ethiopian, and Harari—employed similar city design and planning strategies to advance particular state interestsand/or the interests of designated sets of people.
