Abstract

Dans cet article, nous souhaitons comprendre si, dans une démocratie multiethnique potentiellement déchirée par la guerre civile, des préoccupations éthiques cruciales comme l'aversion à l'inégalité inter-ethnique permettent de réduire de façon significative la tentation des citoyens de voter pour leur parti ethnique (défendant l'intérêt de leur groupe ethnique au détriment des autres) plutôt que pour un parti national (promouvant un traitement équitable des différents groupes ethniques). Nous analysons pour cela des données que nous avons collectées en mai 2004 auprès de 331 étudiants de l'Université d'Addis Abeba. Nos résultats invitent à la fois au pessimisme et à l'optimisme.
