The Battle for Zimbabwe – Geoff Hill

Description

Geoff Hill takes the reader inside Robert Mugabe’s party, ZANU-PF, and the opposition Movement for Democratic Change. The author has met with members of both parties who have been prepared to talk candidly with him, giving him behind-the-scenes information. The book considers the role of critics and observers – the role and treatment of the press within Zimbabwe, and the often contradictory responses to Mugabe from the international community. It also looks at the lives of ordinary Zimbabweans living in a collapsing economy. Finally, it considers Zimbabwe’s future – the challenge that lies ahead to rebuild the country. An insightful snapshot early this millennium of the problems that have beset Zimbabwe. In retrospect it looks like under-statement as the problems have escalated and multiplied further post publication. Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia) is today just another African basket case. Geoff Hill has written a useful snapshot. ———-
