Transforming Ethiopia's Developmental State Model for Future Dynamism

By Asayehgn Desta

In 2005, Ethiopia adopted and thrived by adjusting the East Asian State-Led Developmental State Model to reflect its own historical conditions, enhance economic growth, and wipe out poverty. As a result, Ethiopia's Developmental State Model has created miraculous economic growth over the last fifteen years. Currently, Ethiopia is faced with abysmal economic and political upheaval, as well as ethnic strife, because the country's chief engine of growth-the Developmental State Model-has been cracking due to administrative obsolescence. If the recent wide-scale economic crisis is not addressed immediately, it could ultimately disrupt Ethiopia's political legitimacy. Therefore, as other developmental countries have done, this book focuses on structural changes of the existing Developmental State Model and initiates a hybrid paradigm that could steer the country toward sustainable development.
