This attempt utilizes framing theory as a single most important framework to foreground the eschewed yet relevant historical phenomena in the course of studying the Ethiopian revolution. A large body of the literature displays a notable convergence in attributing the young elite segment of the then Ethiopian polity a causative factor. The seismic change, accordingly, has been characterized as urban-centered. Despite such a vast attempt, the formative course yet remains least understood and incomplete. The present work attempts to address this gap. It seeks to present a major challenge to the taken for granted scholarship and shed new light in the study of the transformation period in question. Its central argument points out that the Ethiopian revolution is better explained and understood by employing the consequential movements the mass segment of the society participated in far from the center. The revolution, accordingly, is primarily characterized as periphery-centered. Relying heavily on overlooked primary sources the research identified and expounded four major consequential movements that occurred in the periphery. The empirical discussion captures the converging symmetrical ambition the protracted movements had toward the formative change.  <br /> </p>}, number={14}, publisher={Hüzeyfe Süleyman ARSLAN}
