(In)seguridad ontológica, proceso de paz, Conflicto, narrativa transformadoraResumen
Este estudio discutió la seguridad ontológica en el proceso de paz y su impacto en la transformación del conflicto en los conflictos del sur de Etiopía. Al analizar el conflicto entre los Garri y los Borana y el proceso de paz, el estudio demuestra cómo los conflictos étnicos que involucran concepciones de narrativas propias con asimetría ontológica desalientan las iniciativas de paz. El marco de seguridad ontológica y el enfoque cualitativo guiaron el estudio, que buscó interpretar la realidad desde el contexto de los encuestados. El estudio utilizó entrevistas con informantes clave y discusiones en grupos focales como fuente de datos primarios y revisión de fuentes secundarias.
En consecuencia, el estudio reveló que el proceso de paz en el sur de Etiopía desde el establecimiento del federalismo étnico, particularmente entre los Garri [somalíes] y los Borana [oromos], se ha caracterizado por una (in)seguridad ontológica persistente, narrativas conflictivas y violencia recurrente, perpetuando un ciclo de inseguridad y obstaculizando el logro de una paz duradera. Romper este ciclo requiere negociaciones que aborden las narrativas centrales adoptadas por ambos grupos, promoviendo el reconocimiento mutuo y transformando las relaciones antagónicas. Adoptar la coexistencia y construir estrategias transformadoras puede crear una narrativa mutuamente aceptable que desafíe la narrativa de conflicto establecida. El estudio concluye que se puede fomentar un entorno pacífico, estable y de apoyo mutuo mediante la creación de un marco duradero que aborde las preocupaciones de seguridad ontológica de ambas comunidades.
