Zimbabwe In Transition: A view from within

The first comprehensive study of the voices of ordinary Zimbabweans drawn from a broad spectrum of society, this book is written by Zimbabweans about Zimbabwe. It discusses the contemporary issues affecting the country and its people. Zimbabwe has occupied a prime news position – from its political position to its economic instability. But do Zimbabweans view their country in the same way that external observers do? To understand the complexities of challenges to Zimbabwe’s transition to democracy as well as prospects for political change and democracy in the country, Zimbabwe in Transition critically examines both the historical and contemporary dynamics shaping political and economic developments in the country, taking into account voices from a broad spectrum of Zimbabwean society, including civil society, faith-based communities, the diaspora, women, community leaders, the media, youth, and regional actors such as SADC and the AU.
