		Prominent among them have been the closing of public political space, the shutdown of the private press, the arrest and indefinite detention of key figures from the liberation struggle, and the imposition of a coercive regime on the population at large.
		Eritrea's new private press picked up the controversy with a vengeance, running news stories and lengthy interviews with prominent government critics on the hot-button issues of the day, often accompanied by highly opinionated commentaries.
		A political movement that had an unusually high degree of shared authority and interactive decision-making is becoming more and more centralized in peacetime, and the formerly collective leadership is narrowing to unvarnished one-man rule.

		President Isaias Afworki, leader of the PFDJ, has dominated political life in Eritrea since the country's military defeat of Ethiopian forces in 1991 and the subsequent internationally monitored referendum on independence held in 1993.
		Contributing to the increasingly factional nature of politics in Eritrea has been the war with Ethiopia and the return of hundreds of thousands of refugees from Sudan, the growing influence of Islamic opposition movements, and an increasing resentment in the Eritrean lowlands of a perceived "colonization" by Christian highlands.
		While political tensions have been found within the PFDJ since the 1970s, in recent years a crackdown on internal dissent and the pursuit of party purification has become more widespread.
