| Abstract |
President Mugabe appears at the Inauguration Ceremony of President Mbeki in South Africa. The crowd gives him an enthusiastic welcome. In "The Times (London), on May 05, 2004, Magnus Linklater wrote under the title „Why my heart sank when Africa rose to cheer the tyrant Robert Mugabe“ basically about his own inability to fathom that President Mugabe had been given such a cheering welcome by the large majority of the South African audience. The article throughout serves as a great reminder that colonialist thinking has not got out of fashion.
