Out of the Mountains: The Coming Age of the Urban Guerrilla

Zimbabwe, is complex. It examines many aspects of his personality, and raises many issues. There is one chapter—chapter 14, by Tendayi Sithole—which, frankly, lacks credibility. He states that even after independence Zimbabwe ‘because of being in Africa, is still at the lower rung of humanity and political status as a nation. Thus, being a member of the United Nations and Mugabe assuming the platform of the latter does not necessarily place Zimbabwe in the circle of humanity ... For Zimbabwe was a colony and it will still be a colony as it is located in the margins of the empire, that which does not see Africa as the political actor but as the entity to be acted upon. In the configuration of the empire, Africa as a whole is still a colony’ (pp. 219 and 220). Later, Sithole writes ‘Zimbabwe, like all other African states, cannot claim to be a sovereign entity’ (p. 220). This comes across as complete nonsense. The book as a whole is hard reading, but given the significance of the topic, it is worth the effort.
