AbstractAmhara nationalism emerged in the Ethiopian political discourse in the 1990s, and has appeared at varying paces across time. This article examines whether the trajectories in Amhara identity conceptions go from rejection to embracing Amhara ethnicity. A qualitative data analysis is used gleaned from various sources including archives, opinions expressed in social media platforms, and key informant interviews undertaken largely in 2020. The article revealed how Amhara ethnicity has been built under various political contexts in Ethiopia. In the last, nearly three decades' actors and political parties shift their subscription from Ethiopian identity to Amhara and the other way around. This shows the situationality, and variability of ethnicity, and more importantly, the weight of context in the construction of identity discourses and practices. The practice of "Amhara democratic nationalism", with its Bolshevik ingredients, aimed to "discipline" Amhara, accompanied by the attitude of many ethnonationalist elites which consider all Amhara as an oppressor gave way to reactive ethnicity, and Amhara political identity is already established with essential implications for the current political discontent and future of Ethiopia.

Geo-distributed computing environments such as hybrid cloud, multi-cloud and Fog Computing need to be managed autonomously at large scales to improve resource utilization, maximize performance, and save costs. However, resource management in these geo-distributed computing environments is difficult due to wide geographical distributions, poor network conditions, heterogeneity of resources, and limited capacity. In this thesis, we address some of the resource management challenges using container technology. First, we present an experimental analysis of autoscaling in Kubernetes clusters at the container and Virtual Machine levels. Second, we propose a proportional controller to dynamically improve the stability of geo-distributed deployments at run-time in Kubernetes Federations. Finally, we develop a container orchestration framework for geo-distributed environments that offers policy-rich placement, autoscaling, bursting, network routing, and dynamic resource provisioning capabilities. ; Les environnements informatiques géo-distribués tels que le cloud hybride, le multi-cloud et le Fog Computing doivent être gérés de manière autonome à grande échelle pour améliorer l'utilisation des ressources, maximiser les performances et réduire les coûts. Cependant, la gestion des ressources dans ces environnements informatiques géo-distribués est difficile en raison de leur large distribution géographique, de mauvaises conditions de réseau, de l'hétérogénéité des ressources et de la capacité limitée. Dans cette thèse, nous abordons certains des défis de la gestion des ressources en utilisant la technologie des conteneurs. Tout d'abord, nous présentons une analyse expérimentale de l'autoscaling dans les clusters Kubernetes au niveau des conteneurs et des machines virtuelles. Deuxièmement, nous proposons un contrôleur proportionnel pour améliorer dynamiquement la stabilité des déploiements géo-distribués dans les fédérations Kubernetes. Enfin, nous proposons un système d'orchestration de conteneurs pour les environnements géo-distribués qui offre des capacités de placement, d'autoscaling, d'éclatement, de routage réseau et de provisionnement dynamique des ressources riches en politiques.

This entry has been realised in the framework of the H2020-MSCA-RISE-2018 project "LoGov - Local Government and the Changing Urban-Rural Interplay". LoGov aims to provide solutions for local governments that address the fundamental challenges resulting from urbanisation. To address this complex issue, 18 partners from 17 countries and six continents share their expertise and knowledge in the realms of public law, political science, and public administration. LoGov identifies, evaluates, compares, and shares innovative practices that cope with the impact of changing urban-rural relations in five major local government areas: (1) local responsibilities and public services, (2) local financial arrangements, (3) structure of local government, (4) intergovernmental relations of local governments, and (5) people's participation in local decision-making. The present entry represents the general introduction of the LoGov Report on Ethiopia providing an overview to the system of local government in the country. To access the full version of the report on Ethiopia, the various practices in the five above-mentioned areas of interest, and to receive more information about the project, please visit: https://www.logov-rise.eu/.
