Developing a Transformation Agenda for Zimbabwe analyses the
political and economic constraints on the nation's reconstruction
and democratic transformation and suggests options for
transformation in key sectors as well as lessons learnt from other
transformations. The challenges in relation to transitional justice
are analysed from an historical context as well as in light of the
political dynamics in the country. The urgent need to launch a
stabilisation programme is discussed, along with key issues for
economic reconstruction. The book also looks at military
involvement in politics in Zimbabwe and concludes that robust
intervention is needed to reform the security sector.
The book investigates the use of bottom-up, community based healing
and peacebuilding approaches, focusing on their strengths and
suggesting how they can be enhanced. The main contribution of the
book is an ethnographic investigation of how post-conflict
communities in parts of Southern Africa use their local resources
to forge a future after mass violence. The way in which Namibia’s
Herero and Zimbabwe’s Ndebele dealt with their respective
genocides is be a major contribution of the book. The focus of the
book is on two Southern African countries that never experienced
institutionalized transitional justice as dispensed in
post-apartheid South Africa via the famed Truth and Reconciliation
Commission. We answer the question: how have communities healed and
reconciled after the end of protracted violence and gross human
rights abuses in Zimbabwe and Namibia? We depart from statetist,
top-down, one-size fits all approaches to transitional justice and
investigate bottom-up approaches.
