Between Modernism and Heritage
It has been a long and fascinating journey to prepare and compile this paper. It was,
simultaneously, an important learning process for the SIHA team. The privilege of gaining
insight into the social functioning of the Oromo in Ethiopia, one of the biggest nations living
in north and eastern Africa, and to be introduced to their intriguingly complex cultural system
is without question worth all the hard work and effort.
Based on SIHA’s work experience in the Horn of Africa, the fundamental hypothesis of this
paper is that, violence against women is generated and processed through deeply
entrenched societal behaviors and attitudes.
