Author Niall O'Keeffe; Trócaire
Edition PDF
Published Maynooth: Trócaire
Year 2004-05-23
Pages 17
Abstract The situation relating to human rights and the
democratic process in Zimbabwe continues to
deteriorate. Parliamentary elections are due in
March 2005 and, in the current repressive
environment, the principles of normal
democratic process are being seriously
undermined. The purpose of the paper is to outline the restrictive measures in place which inhibit the democratic process and to suggest steps which could be undertaken by Ireland and the EU to redress this inhibiting environment in Zimbabwe.
