이 글의 목적은 본 연구자가 에티오피아 아셀라 타운에서의 현지조사를 통해수집한 자료를 토대로, 종족 현상을 다층적 맥락에서 살펴보는 데 있다. 생태학적 조건, 양대 종족의 숫자상 균형, 빈번한 종족 외혼 및 ‘젖 먹이기’라는 사회문화적 관행의 영향 등으로 인해, 이 타운에서는 집단적 수준의 종족 갈등이 거의발생하지 않았다. 하지만 이러한 관행의 긍정적인 영향에도 불구하고, 아셀라에서는 지배 종족에 의한 차별과 위협이 지속적으로 발생해 온 것으로 파악되었다. 대개의 제보자는 종족 외혼이 종족 집단 및 공동체 구성원의 유대를 강화하고, 상이한 종족 문화를 습득하고, 사람들 간의 관용 정신을 배양하고, 혼종적(다중적) 종족 정체성을 가진 우수한 2세를 생산하는 데 기여한다고 여기고 있었다. 그러나 일부 제보자는 종족 외혼이 그 당사자의 이기적인 선택에 불과할 뿐만아니라 종족 정체성을 손상시키므로, 결코 바람직한 일이 아니라는 입장을 견지했다. 상당수의 제보자는 현재 진행 중인 오로모화가 지극히 당연한 현상이라여기고 있는 반면, 일부 제보자는 오로모화를 강제성, 피상성 및 생존 전략의 맥락에서 파악될 필요가 있다고 역설했다.
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the ethnic phenomenon in the multi-layered context, based upon data collected from my fieldwork in Asella Town, Ethiopia. The town has experienced few ethnic conflicts at the collective level because of ecological conditions, the numerical balance between the two major ethnic groups―i.e., the Oromo and the Amhara―, frequent ethnic intermarriages as well as effects of a unique sociocultural practice of ‘breast-feeding.’ However, despite positive influences of such a practice, the local community has continuously witnessed discrimination and threats by the dominant ethnic group. Most of my informants feel that ethnic intermarriage contributes to: (ⅰ) enforcement of bonds among both ethic groups and community members, (ⅱ) acquisition of different ethnic cultures, (ⅲ) cultivation of the spirit of tolerance among people, and (ⅳ) production of the superior second generation that has hybrid/multiple ethnic identities. However, some informants harbor negative attitudes towards ethnic intermarriage because they perceive it as a selfish choice of two parties and damages ethnic identity. Most informants consider ongoing Oromonization as natural, whereas others insist that it should be understood in the context of coercion, superficiality and survival strategy.
