By the dawn of independence in 1980, Zimbabwe had one of the most
structurally developed economies and state systems in Africa and
was classified as a middle-income country. In 1980, Zimbabwe's GDP
per capita was almost equal to that of China. More than 30 years
later, Zimbabwe had regressed to a low-income country with a GDP
per capita among the lowest in the world. With these dark economic
conditions, discussions concerning structural problems of a country
once cited as Africa's best potential are reignited. Shumba
interrogates the ruling elite political reproduction, modes of
accumulation across key economic sectors and implications for
development outcomes. The book raises some pressing questions in
search of answers. If Zimbabwe was the golden darling after
independence, why did this happen? Was it inevitable? What were the
crucial choices made that led to it? Did the ruling elite know that
their choices would lead to Zimbabwe's developmental decline?
