dc.description.abstractThis article was aimed to evaluate responsiveness capacity of Ethiopian foreign policy to political and militarization dynamics in Red Sea region from effectiveness and adequacy policy measurement criterions vantage point. This review employed both explanatory and argumentative synthesization of different sources in deductive manner to explore tangible facts ontologically and tested them with theoretical tenets and established facts. To assert this, logical framework of analysis was designed. This stared with selecting prominent IR theoretical tenets of Hegemonic Stability Theory HST & Realism together with globalization dynamics followed by crystallizing and summarizing Ethiopian foreign policy objectives in two subsections of general Ethiopian Foreign Policy (EFP) objectives and specific objectives (Eretria, Somalia, Egypt and Arabian Peninsula). Subsequently, adequacy and effectiveness as policy evaluation criterion were selected to answer whether or not Ethiopian foreign policy has sufficient or adequate assumptions aligned with the intensity and type of problems we face in Red Sea and also effective enough to achieve its policy objectives in red sea. As a result of following this methodology, the study has found that foreign policy deficiency on responding effectiveness capacity or due to obsolete policy assumptions which were resulted from swift global and regional IR dynamics. Policy effectiveness and adequacy in a specific targeted countries such as Eritrea and Arabian peninsula EFP was not Effective and adequate. However, in a case of Somalia EFP was both effective and adequate. With regard to Egypt, EFP assumptions were adequate but not effective when it‟s compared EFP objectives. Thus, revision of foreign policy towards Eritrea and Egypt is recommended. Asides, having holistic policy which is directed on Red Sea as a hole is essential.en_US
