Southern African Social Forum Nearly Marred By Ban: Cosatu Not Allowed To Attend - 18 octobre 2008 - By Faith ka-Manzi - “Destroy structures that give privileges to a few”, shouted Mr. Thomas Deve during the highly charged opening of the Southern African Social Forum (SASF) at the Bosco grounds in Manzini in the small Kingdom of Swaziland on October 16. He appealed to delegates of the forum - dubbed the ‘merchants of hope’ - not to be afraid to proclaim their struggles, and that “peoples forces will not be stopped by anyone”. Deve is a member of the Zimbabwe Social Forum. - Source : Centre for Civil Society
 
Desperately Seeking Sanity: The Persistence of the Old Regime in Zimbabwe - 22 July 2008 - By Brian Raftopoulos - After yet another contested general and presidential election on 2008, the Zimbabwe crisis persists with ever deepening symptoms of political and economic decline. Not unlike other elections in Africa, and most recently in Kenya at the end of 2007, the 2008 Zimbabwean elections, because of the serious deficiencies in the electoral system and the debilitating effects of widespread state-sponsored violence, have both aggravated the social tensions and exacerbated the fragility of the country’s political fabric. For the purpose of the elections, as elsewhere on the continent, was not to democratize political spaces but to construct and contrive a renewed ‘electoral legitimacy’ through the combination of violence and skewed electoral processes, for a regime that has come to depend increasingly on coercion and limited patronage for its survival. - Source : Amandla
 
La gueule de bois du Zimbabwe - 11 mars 2008 - Par Colette Braeckman - Au pouvoir sans interruption depuis 1980, Robert Gabriel Mugabe, 84 ans bien sonnés, va se représenter le 29 mars pour un nouveau mandat présidentiel de cinq ans à la tête du Zimbabwe. Porte parole du syndicat des enseignants, Takavafiro Shou, qui a déjà été arrêté et torturé, ne manque pas de vocabulaire pour qualifier le régime de son pays : « sultanisme », « clientélisme et patronage », « liberation hang over » (littéralement gueule de bois) frappant un ancien combattant de la libération qui ne veut pas savoir que les temps ont changé. - Source :
 
South Africa in Zimbabwe: The Vultures have descended - 4 October 2007 - By Shawn Hattingh - Periodically over the last seven years, the South African government has claimed to be on the verge of brokering a deal between ZANU-PF and the MDC that would secure Zimbabwe’s political future. During these fleeting moments, the hopes of millions of Zimbabweans have been raised; only to be repeatedly smashed. This is because at every critical point over the last seven years, when change seemed imminent in Zimbabwe, South Africa has backed and protected ZANU-PF. - Source : Centre for Civil Society
 
Pan Africanism and the Zimbabwe crisis - 12 September 2007 - By Rotimi Sankore - The Zimbabwean crisis is arguably the only ongoing crisis in which one side (the incumbent government) and its supporters have mobilised African support and silenced many by asserting more or less that its critics are sympathisers, supporters or agents of foreign interests and former colonial masters. - Source : Pambazuka News
 
Zimbabwe: Challenges for solidarity - 18 May 2007 - By Ronald Wesso - The Zimbabwean situation raises the importance of international solidarity to extraordinary levels. - Source : Pambazuka News
 
Zimbabwe: An End to the Stalemate? - 5 March 2007 - After years of political deadlock and continued economic and humanitarian decline, a realistic chance has at last begun to appear in the past few months to resolve the Zimbabwe crisis, by retirement of President Robert Mugabe, a power-sharing transitional government, a new constitution and elections. - Source : International Crisis Group
 
The social forum alternative in Zimbabwe, and Africa perhaps - 8 septembre 2005 - by Tinashe Chimedza - In one of many critical works that Raftopoulos and Phimister have published on Zimbabwe they brilliantly observe that, “one of the major problems in Zimbabwe has been the rupturing of relations between redistributive questions and political democratisation”. - Source : Centre for Civil Society
 
Fin de règne à Harare - septembre 2005 - Par Augusta Conchiglia - Des dizaines de milliers de Zimbabwéens se trouvent sans abri à la suite des démolitions administratives décidées en mai 2005. Populaire en raison de sa lutte contre la ségrégation raciale, le président Robert Mugabe s’enferme dans un autoritarisme destructeur, qu’illustre la brutale réforme agraire. - Source : Le Monde Diplomatique
