{"product_id":"peasant-revolution-in-ethiopia-john-young-9780521591980","title":"Peasant Revolution in Ethiopia","description":"Almost unnoticed, in the wake of the overthrow of Emperor Haile-Selassie, the coming to power of the military, and the ongoing independence struggle in Eritrea, a band of students launched an insurrection from the northern Ethiopian province of Tigray. Calling themselves the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), they built close relations with Tigray's poverty-stricken peasants and on this basis liberated the province in 1989, and formed an ethnic-based coalition of opposition forces that assumed state power in 1991. This book chronicles that history and focuses in particular on the relationship of the revolutionaries with Ethiopia's peasants.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Young\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521591988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521591980\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/04\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.33h x 6.34w x 0.92d","brand":"John Young","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48517327126783,"sku":"9780521591980","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33d6c0df-e5e2-4b9a-a7cb-dc926489d06b.jpg?v=1778731373","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/peasant-revolution-in-ethiopia-john-young-9780521591980","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
