| dc.description.abstract | Despite overwhelming predictions as to its eventual demise, street vending remained here with all its blessings and curses. Further, street vendors are emerging under new guises and at unexpected places in Ethiopia. Currently, they have become defining picture for major cities like Addis Ababa. Street Vending hosts plenty of individuals struggling for a daily bread to those individuals intentionally engaging in street vending to use it as a platform for contraband and other proceeds of crimes. This thesis was conducted with the view to assessing the regulation of Street Vendors in Ethiopia. Examination of pertinent Commercial laws in Ethiopia and interviews held with regulatory organs, and street vendors revealed that Street Vendors have not been sufficiently regulated. Their legal status remained contentious and various consequences are ensuing therefrom. For this regulatory failure, the regulatory organs present various reasons as an excuse. Nonetheless, the time ticks that it is a time for Ethiopia to introduce a Sui Generis Regulation for Street Vendors. | |
