The Djibouto-Ethiopian Railway Archives Project : Historical Stakes and Status

by Prof. Shiferaw Bekele and Dr. Simon Imbert-Vier

Date: Thursday June 21, 2018 – 5-6 pm

Venue: Berhanou Abebe Library, French Centre for Ethiopian Studies (Jan Meda, https://goo.gl/maps/sutSritp3MU2)

The Ethio-French Railway was the first industrial enterprise of Ethiopia. Built at the beginning of the 20th Century, this line was operated by a French Company, which became Ethiopian in 1959 but remained under concrete French administration up to the independence of Djibouti in 1977.

Its existence drove the French influence into the Horn of Africa and contributed to structure the Ethiopian external commercial relations. But it had also an impact on the construction of the Ethiopian State, Dire Dawa becoming one of its most important source of income, and the creation of an Ethiopian industrial social class.

This entity produced many archives for its administration, due to its strategic importance, but it was also the subject of many texts, from literature and travel reports to scientific essays.
