The spatial organization of the population of Ethiopia, 1965-1984.

Abstract

Changes in the spatial distribution of the population of Ethiopia over the period 1965-1984 are analyzed. The author develops a theory of spatial organization based on a consideration of the use of space by individuals. "It is also hypothesized that most of the overall population changes are largely attributed to micro-scale adjustments of the people or movements of [an] intra-regional nature."
