The House of Federation and Minority Rights Protection in Ethiopia

Mehr zum Buch

The book analyzes the House of Federation (HoF) in Ethiopia, emphasizing its role in safeguarding minority rights within a federal framework. It addresses a research gap regarding the shared rule aspect of second chambers in multicultural federations. By comparing Ethiopia's HoF with similar institutions in Switzerland, Belgium, and India, it offers insights for Ethiopian government bodies on enhancing the protection of minority rights. The study aims to inform effective mechanisms for the operation of Ethiopia's federal system and improve understanding of institutional roles in minority rights protection.
