Calling themselves the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), they built close relations with Tigray's poverty-stricken peasants and on this basis liberated the province in 1989, and formed an ethnic-based coalition of opposition forces that assumed state power in 1991. This book chronicles that history and focuses in particular on the relationship of the revolutionaries with Ethiopia's peasants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47613226254487,"sku":"9780521026062","price":4359.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780521026062.webp?v=1775083560","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/peasant-revolution-in-ethiopia-the-tigray-peoples-liberation-front-1975-1991-9780521026062","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
