dc.description.abstract The study examined “the effects of foreign intervention on political transitions of African countries. A case study of Ethiopia”. It was based on three research objectives; 1) to examine the effects of foreign diplomatic intervention on the political transition of Ethiopia, 2) to assess the effects of foreign economic intervention on the political transition of Ethiopia and 3) to examine the effects of foreign military intervention on the political transition of Ethiopia. The research design for the study is cross-sectional using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The study used a sample size of 63 respondents. Data was collected through primary and secondary sources, and then it was edited, coded, and cross-checked using MS Excel and exported to SPSS for analysis. Analysis was done using both descriptive statistics mainly through the relationship of the study variables. Results revealed that diplomatic intervention mechanisms have values that resonate well with the values and principles of restorative justice in Ethiopia. Results indicate that foreign economic intervention through foreign aid has played a major role in Ethiopia’s development and political transition process. Results also xiv showed that various countries have stakes in Ethiopia, and international interventions adversely affect both the state and conflict situation in Ethiopia. In conclusion, the study notes that different methods of foreign intervention cause states to become more or less politically stable. Economic aid to developing states increases the government’s ability to protect the state from negative economic shocks. It was also revealed that economic variables related to levels of third-party state consumption and production may increase the likelihood of a preferred diplomatic intervention outcome, but this relationship stands for partial settlement only. In recommendation, the study suggested rapid progress on the Constitutional Review to continue the political reconciliation of Ethiopia and promote democracy. It was also suggested all foreign countries refrain from violence and engage in political dialogue to resolve outstanding differences and the UN and the African Union (AU) monitor the situation. en_US
