Focusing on the role of religion and ethnicity in times of
conflict, Terje Ostebo investigates the Muslim-dominated insurgency
against the Ethiopian state in the 1960s, shedding new light on
this understudied case in order to contribute to a deeper
understanding of religion, inter-religious relations, ethnicity,
and ethno-nationalism in the Horn of Africa. Islam, Ethnicity and
Conflict in Ethiopia develops new theoretical perspectives on the
interrelations between ethnic and religious identities, considering
ethnic and religious groups as mutually exclusive categories by
applying the term peoplehood as an analytical tool, one that allows
for more flexible perspectives. Exploring the interplay of
imagination and lived, affective reality, and inspired by the
'materiality turn' in cultural- and religious studies, Ostebo
argues for an integrated approach which recognizes and explores
embodiment and emplacement as intrinsic to formations of ethnic and
religious identities.
