项目摘要

Through this fellowship, I aim to consolidate my PhD research and make it available to academics, policy makers and practitioners. The fellowship will provide me with the space and resources to conduct knowledge exchange activities with key policy makers through strategic one-on-one meetings and with targeted practitioner audiences through a knowledge exchange workshop. I will reach academic audiences through academic journal papers, and developing a proposal for a book that will present the complete argument of my PhD. I will also start the work of expanding the scope of my research by undertaking limited new exploratory research on recent developments in the politics of urbanization in Ethiopia. Finally, The fellowship will also contribute to my development as an independent researcher by allowing me to access advanced skills and methods training, mentorship for developing a Leverhulme PDF proposal and various opportunities to build networks in my field. My PhD research examined the problem of urban-industrial policy fragmentation in a leading example of rapid industrial transformation in East Africa, Ethiopia. Through a grounded study of urban industrial policy making and planning, the research found planning failures to be the result of the shifting political dynamics within the ruling party. The gradual breakdown of the core integrative institutions of the party state, the party bureaucracy and the ethnic federation, are at the heart of the integration challenge. The infrastructural and housing challenges that emerged as a result of this dissociated planning have been partially resolved, but the emerging Ethiopian urban-industrial nexus as a whole remains undefined and unaccounted for by the plethora of isolated streams of development planning and intervention, indicating continued implications for Ethiopia's industrialization and urbanization in years ahead. More broadly, Africa's ongoing radical transformation in the 21st century is characterized by these two these mega processes of change: its urban and industrial transitions. Industrialization is currently one of the top policy agendas for a number of sub-Saharan African countries. These countries are pursuing rapid state-led export-oriented industrialization in cities following the 2008 African Union Summit that endorsed the African Union's Action Plan for the Accelerated Industrial Development of Africa (AU, 2011). Sub-Saharan African countries, and particularly East African countries, are at the same time experiencing some of the highest urbanization rates in the world. While a growing body of scholarship has demonstrated that Africa's accelerated industrialization has wide reaching consequences for urbanization and vice versa, these two processes of change are being steered through highly fragmented state action that emanates from factional party politics in many of these countries. The findings of my research therefore offer valuable insights to the study of the politics of urban industrialization in a broader range of developmental authoritarian African states, a field that is virtually unexplored to date. Political developments in those contexts were critical to the relative success of urban and industrial policy or their failure. However, recent scholarship that has engaged the urban dimension of Industrial Parks in Africa has not engaged the political drivers of policy fragmentation (Lawanson and Agunbiade, 2018; G/Egziabher & Yemeru, 2020; Cheru and Fikreselassie, 2020). At the same time, scholarship on the politics of industrialication, more generally, has tended to overlook the urban dimension of development politics in its explanations of the successes and failures of economic development planning (Whitfield et. Al., 2015, Chitonge and Lawrence, 2020). My PhD research and my current research looking at the politics of structural transformation in Ethiopian cities to address these gaps.
通过这个奖学金,我的目标是巩固我的博士研究,并使其提供给学者,政策制定者和从业人员。该研究金将为我提供空间和资源,通过战略性一对一会议与主要决策者开展知识交流活动,并通过知识交流讲习班与目标从业人员受众开展知识交流活动。我将通过学术期刊论文接触学术受众,并为一本书提出一个建议,这本书将展示我的博士学位的完整论点。我还将开始扩大我的研究范围,对埃塞俄比亚城市化政治的最新发展进行有限的新探索性研究。最后,该奖学金还将有助于我作为一个独立的研究人员的发展,让我获得先进的技能和方法培训,指导开发Leverhulme PDF提案和各种机会,以建立网络在我的领域。我的博士研究探讨了城市产业政策碎片化的问题,在东非,埃塞俄比亚快速工业转型的一个领先的例子。通过对城市产业政策制定和规划的基础研究,研究发现规划失败是执政党内部政治动态变化的结果。政党国家的核心一体化机构-政党官僚机构和民族联盟-的逐渐瓦解是一体化挑战的核心。由于这种各自为政的规划而出现的基础设施和住房方面的挑战已得到部分解决,但埃塞俄比亚新出现的城市-工业联系作为一个整体仍然没有得到界定,也没有被过多的孤立的发展规划和干预所解释,这表明埃塞俄比亚的工业化和城市化在未来几年将继续受到影响。更广泛地说,非洲在21世纪正在进行的根本性变革的特点是这两个巨大的变革进程:城市和工业转型。工业化目前是一些撒哈拉以南非洲国家的首要政策议程之一。2008年非洲联盟首脑会议核可了《非洲联盟加速非洲工业发展行动计划》(Au,2011年),此后,这些国家正在城市中推行国家主导的出口导向型快速工业化。与此同时,撒哈拉以南非洲国家,特别是东非国家,正经历着世界上最高的城市化率。虽然越来越多的学术研究表明,非洲的加速工业化对城市化产生了广泛的影响,反之亦然,但这两个变化进程是通过许多这些国家的派系政治所产生的高度分散的国家行动来引导的。因此,我的研究结果提供了宝贵的见解,在更广泛的发展专制非洲国家的城市工业化的政治研究,这是迄今为止几乎未探索的领域。这些背景下的政治发展对于城市和工业政策的相对成功或失败至关重要。然而,最近的学术研究涉及非洲工业园区的城市层面,但没有涉及政策碎片化的政治驱动因素(Lawanson和Agunbiade,2018; G/Egziabher和Yemeru,2020; Cheru和Fikreselassie,2020)。与此同时,关于工业化政治的学术研究,更普遍地说,在解释经济发展规划的成功和失败时,往往忽视了发展政治的城市层面。艾尔2015年,Chitonge和Lawrence,2020年)。我的博士研究和我目前的研究着眼于埃塞俄比亚城市结构转型的政治,以解决这些差距。
