It offers one of the first focused examinations of how the broader process of African decolonization influenced the political fight for control of Southern Rhodesia (colonial Zimbabwe). Through an in-depth survey of the effects of pan-African developments on national-level political thought during one of the continent's most pivotal periods, it provides a comprehensive analysis. The book draws on extensive fieldwork in southern Africa, as well as archival collections in the United States and the United Kingdom, to explore the seismic shifts that occurred in the white settler-dominated territory as self-determination gained widespread international acceptance virtually overnight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn particular, it focuses on the impact of decolonization struggles and\/or independence in Ghana, Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Malawi on Zimbabwe's liberation struggle. By doing so, it also provides fresh insights into the origins of contemporary repression in Zimbabwe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis groundbreaking work not only sheds light on the complex web of historical forces that shaped Southern Africa's liberation struggles but also offers valuable insights into the ongoing challenges and struggles for social justice and democracy in the region. It is a must-read for scholars, activists, and anyone interested in understanding the complex history and contemporary dynamics of Southern Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 530g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031255588\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brooks Marmon","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44307607683322,"sku":"9783031255588","price":91.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_b58ea719-d46b-4522-868f-c918b0f36462.jpg?v=1688110356","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/panafricanism-versus-partnership-african-decolonisation-in-southern-rhodesian-politics-19501963-9783031255588","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
