A Decade of Zimbabwe
Politics, Economy and Society 2008-2017
Author:
This ten-year review covers a difficult but exciting period in Zimbabwe. It starts when the so-called âZimbabwe Crisisâ was full-blown, and the country was experiencing political, economic and social turmoil, characterized by hyperinflation, de-industrialization, polarization and persistent repression. The review captures the fast-moving events in the three major institutions in Zimbabwe: the state, the ruling party and the main opposition. It also captures the goings-on in national governance, from ruling party dominance, to a Government of National Unity in 2008 and back to ruling party dominance in contested elections in 2013. In this period, the country saw a change from the Mugabe years to his ouster in a so-called âsoft-coupâ and a change in leadership in 2017.
