How federalism can be used to provide recognition and accommodate
ethnic groups is an important topic, not only in Africa, but in
multi-ethnic communities around the world. Examining how
institutions of multi-ethnic states have been designed to
accommodate ethnic diversity while at the same time maintaining
national unity, this book locates institutional responses to the
challenges of ethnic diversity within the context of a federal
arrangement. It examines how a federal arrangement has been used to
reconcile the conflicting pressures of the demand for the
recognition of distinctive identities, on the one hand, and the
promotion of political and territorial integrity, on the other.
Comparative case studies of South Africa and Ethiopia as the two
federal systems provide a contrasting approach to issues of ethnic
diversity. Suggesting new ways in which federalism might work, the
author identifies key institutions lessons which will help to build
an all-inclusive society.
