Paradox of nation building and national security interest in Ethiopia

Establishing a means of reconciling between nation building activities and national security was a critical issue for sustainable peace. Reason for nation-building was to get peaceful living environment to secure nation nationality and people. Nations are integrated together when citizens share enough values and preferences and can communicate with each other by education fully exercise individual and group rights through federalism and power decentralization in more civilized way. When nations share income equality develop leadership quality deny corruption and get common consensus through national institutions on main pillar values of country to secure NSI. Hence the primary objective of the study of nation building was to pacify a violent society peaceful by analyzing how to reconcile with national security by considering Ethiopia (post 1991) in to account. Therefore state and other stakeholder should give due attention to quality of leadership that fulfills national contract to apply rule of law; develop more human capacity in leadership by depoliticizing security force and extremism to overcome the challenges.
