This book was written in honour of His Excellency, The President of The Republic of Zimbabwe, Cde Robert Gabriel Mugabe. It takes stock of his achievements right from the pre-Independence era to present-day Zimababwe. It presents fine details of his legacy. Things such as the vast Land Reform Program, which he was able to conduct during the last two decades, the Indigenisation program, the emancipation of women in the country, the championing of Human rights and Democracy, the Quality Education that our people were able to receive over the years, the Unity, Peace and Development happening everywhere in Zimbabwe, our foreign and external relations, his fight against colonial and neo-colonial powers; and the way he has preserved the values of the African people in the country and beyond, amongst other issues. Not only is it a book about our country's long-winding history and the exploits of our great leader, it is also a book about the future. The book was uniquely crafted to create a sense of loyalty, dedication and commitment in the readers, taking notes from the man who has seen it all; the man who has done the best for our nation and the rest of the once-colonised people of this world. This is none other than His Excellency, President Robert Mugabe.

Examines Zimbabwe's pre-colonial, colonial and postcolonial social, economic and political history and relates historical factors and trends to more recent developments in the country.

This book is an exploration of the political history of insurgency in SOuthern Rhodesia. During the early years of its struggle, ZAPU employed non-violent means to try and achieve its goal for majority rule and a non-racial society. Because of the belligerancy of the White settler regime, ZAPU added the armed resistance to its strategy and went on to build a formidable army. Problems escalated and alliances were built and dissolved until, tired of being hunted down and butchered, the ZAPU leadership decided to merge its party with the ruling party in December 1987.

Instead of leading his people to the "promised land," Mugabe, the first prime minister of the newly-named Zimbabwe, has amassed a fortune for himself, his family and followers and has presided over the murder, torture and starvation of those who oppose him. This biography offers some explanations for Mugabe's behavior. With the death of his wife in 1992, a moderating influence was lost, and as the years go by, he continues to show himself intolerant of any opposition as he proceeds toward the creation of a one-party state, even though evidence suggests that his country is in terminal decline.

How President Robert Mugabe manipulated Zimbabwe's security policy to exploit past problems for present gain.

Integral Green Zimbabwe: An African Phoenix Rising by Ronnie Lessem, Alexander Schieffer and Liz Mamukwa is the first book in the Integral Green Society and Economy series, a series which has three overarching aims. The first aim is to link together two major movements of our time, one philosophical, the other practical. The philosophical movement is towards what many today are calling an 'integral' age, while the practical is the 'green' movement, duly aligned with that of sustainable development. The second is to blend together elements of nature and community, culture and spirituality, science and technology, politics and economics, thus serving to bring about an 'integral green' vision, albeit with a focus on business and economics. As such, the authors transcend the limitations to sustainable development and environmental economics, which are overly ecological, if not also technological, in orientation, and exclude social and cultural elements. Thirdly, this particular volume focuses specifically on Zimbabwe, as well as Southern Africa, drawing on the particular issues and capacities that this country and region represents. The emphasis on Zimbabwe and Southern Africa transpired not only because two of the editors (Lessem and Mamukwa) are Zimbabwean in origin, but because Zimbabwe is today like a phoenix rising from the ashes, and has the opportunity to recreate itself anew.
