| Abstract |
The two articles are revised versions of papers presented at the end of May 2004 to a Zimbabwe Conference at the Nordic Africa Institute, which was co-organised by the project "Liberation and Democracy in Southern Africa" (LiDeSA). They highlight current socio-economic aspects of Zimbabwean society. By doing so, they raise relevant issues, which have tended to be neglected given the almost exclusive concentration on political events. The two articles fill the gap in the knowledge and add insights into important sectors of society. These include information on the Zimbabwean economy and the present constraints of the decline, which together help to understand the structural legacy that any future government will have to deal with. This Discussion Paper will thereby make a substantive contribution to the analysis of the overall picture in Zimbabwe. Dansereau is Assistant Professor, International Development Studies at St Mary's University in Halifax, Nova Scotia (Canada). Zamponi is a Lecturer at the Faculty of Political Science of the University of Bologna (Italy). He has worked and published on Zimbabwe for an extensive period of time and is the editor of the Italian scholarly journal "Afriche e orienti: rivista di studi ai confini tra africa mediterraneo e medio oriente".
