Zimbabwe 2008: A New Beginning?

• Product Code: UGI153

Since the bitterly disputed elections of March 2008 the eyes of the world have been on Zimbabwe.

As its economy crashes into hyperinflation and widespread hunger, few can understand how the present regime is still clinging on to power. Of all the failed states the world is trying to rescue, Zimbabwe has probably the most to teach the world about the legacy of colonialism and the pitfalls of globalisation.

Topics Covered;
- Colonial Rhodesia
- Winds of Change
- The Failure of Structural Adjustment
- The New Opposition
- Economic Meltdown
- Democracy Discredited
- Zimbabwe in the Global Village
