Constructions of “otherness” and the role of education: The case of Ethiopia

Summary/Abstract: This article attempts to discuss the concept of constructing “otherness”, the techniques to be used and the role of educational systems. Ethiopia as a multilingual and multicultural country is the basis of discussion for this concept.
