| dc.description.abstract | Studies on comparative federalism show that the increasing significance of IGR as the institutional and practical device to fit to contextual realities of the federal systems. When Cities expand, in need of more land for several purposes, they usually depend on their neighboring localities. Jurisdictional boundary disputes potentially occurred as cities appropriate a large portion of the neighboring territory as economic and functional hinterlands. The situation is even the worst in the cities like Dire Dawa which have other deriving factors like ethnic and socio-cultural diversities. The main objective of this study is to examine the nature of the existing IGR between Dire Dawa and its surrounding localities and its implication on the management of land specifically it identifies contextual factors shaping the relation between Dire Dawa and surrounding local administrations. It analyzes the impact of IGR between the City of Dire Dawa and surrounding local administration up on land management. The study uses a case study research design. It gathered data both from secondary and primary sources. For seeking primary data sources, it utilizes semi-structured interview, FGD, personal observation, and document review. The finding of the thesis shows that IGR played important role in handling land and boundary dispute between the City of Dire Dawa and Shinile Zone. The nature and form of IGR however, is not only informal but also weak and unsustainable. Hence, it is the contention of this thesis that the IGR between the City and surrounding locality needs robust guideline and sustainable institutional framework in order to handle mutual concerns. | en_US |
