Abstract

A comprehensive understanding of the operational part of a federal system calls for the study of the comportment on which the center-state relationship is based. Keeping this line, the Ethiopian federal setup which is suspected of being coercive as regards the rapport between the orders of government, is an interesting area of academic as well as political significance. The paper aims at exploring whether such suspicion is valid or not by scrutinizing the prevailing politico-economic as well as constitutional stratum in which the federal experiment is functioning
