C'est au milieu d'une région de montagnes et de prairies, jusqu'alors aux marges méridionales de l'espace national éthiopien, qu'est née Addis Abeba, vers 1886. D'abord simple camp royal et base logistique pour les conquêtes militaires, elle devient un « carrefour du monde ». Le texte met en lumière le rôle exercé par la volonté de reconnaissance de la souveraineté nationale, dans le processus particulier de fondation et de pérennisation de la capitale éthiopienne, ainsi que dans son développement au cours du XXe, notamment dans le domaine patrimonial. Cet ouvrage est complété par une abondante iconographie. Devenue la capitale permanente de l'Éthiopie vers 1900, Addis-Abeba a vu son rôle reconfirmé par l'occupant italien en 1936, lors de la fondation de l'Africa Orientale Italiana, puis à nouveau en 1941, après la Libération. Dans sa volonté de reconnaissance de la souveraineté nationale, la ville fut à nouveau mise en scène, architecturalement et monumentalement, en référence à l'histoire éthiopienne, comme le mythe fondateur du Kebrä Nägäst et le royaume antique d'Aksum. Faisant suite au premier tome, cet ouvrage s'attache à comprendre la construction de la ville depuis l'occupation italienne jusqu'au XXIe siècle, constituant la première somme publiée consacrée à la capitale éthiopienne.

As a relatively new urban landscape, Addis Ababa possesses a rich cultural history that continues to develop today. Drawing on numerous first-person accounts of Addis Ababa from its inception to the present day, as well as the author's own field research, this work traces the development of the city from a military camp to the fastest-growing city in Africa. Careful attention is given to all elements of Addis Ababa, including its people, customs, geography, economy, psychology and its place in global culture. This book presents a holistic and diachronic view of the city and sets the stage for

The School, The Book, The Town is a biography of an experiment undertaken in Ethiopia for nearly a decade, starting with the founding of a school, setting off a series of investigations assembled in a book, and leading to the construction of a town. A timeline running all through the book reveals how logical and consistent, but in some cases also chaotic and interrupted the story evolved. In an age of rapid urbanization, the city is everywhere. In the case of Ethiopia, as with so many other developing nations, architecture and urban design are brought face to face with a country undergoing radical, often painful transformations that put longstanding traditions to the test. The burning question here is how to modernize and yet maintain distinct cultural identities, while also trying to accommodate mass migration from rural regions to urban centers. In sum, the route followed here is one marked by a series of trials that leave nothing standing as it was.
