Before emerging ex statu pupillari as Zimbabwe, the former Southern
Rhodesia underwent many changes. These included a dramatic
declaration of independence in the Sixties by the minority
government; a fierce 'Chlimurenga' or war of liberation; a
flirtation with socialism; and a final emergence as the republic we
know today, From prc-history to the present day Zimbabwe - The Rise
To Nationhood presents a clear and comprehensive study of a nation
in transition. As an economist, the author is able to highlight the
uses -and abuses - of his country's human and natural resources,
both before and after independence. With the help of his own
illustrations, maps and a full glossary and index, Jacob Chikuhwa
paints a picture of a country more at ease with itself and its
neighbours than before, but still suffering the effects of cyclical
trade and weather conditions. This book will be of enormous value
to students of economics, history and culture, and to anyone
interested in Zimbabwe and Southern Africa.
