The establishment of legal institutions was a key part of the
process of state construction in Africa, and these institutions
have played a crucial role in the projection of state authority
across space. This is especially the case in colonial and
postcolonial Zimbabwe. George Karekwaivanane offers a unique
long-term study of law and politics in Zimbabwe, which examines how
the law was used in the constitution and contestation of state
power across the late-colonial and postcolonial periods. Through
this, he offers insight on recent debates about judicial
independence, adherence to human rights, and the observation of the
rule of law in contemporary Zimbabwean politics. The book sheds
light on the prominent place that law has assumed in Zimbabwe's
recent political struggles for those researching the history of the
state and power in Southern Africa. It also carries forward
important debates on the role of law in state-making, and will also
appeal to those interested in African legal history.
