Sons of the Soil
When the Dutch and the British settled in the Rhodesia's they found a country with weather and climate like no other. The rich soil and abundant rainfall was very favourable. Topography varied from the Lowveld with grass and semi-scrub land suitable for cattle farming, to the Midlands and Highveld suitable for cultivation of crops and smaller livestock. The mountainous areas of Melsetter, Chimanimani and Vumba provided ideal areas for the cultivation of coffee and tea. Agriculture became the backbone of the economy. The abundance of harvest and meat made Rhodesia completely self-sufficient and the industrial manufacturing sector rapidly expanded and boomed. During the war(1964-1980) Agricultural output did not slump. In spite of the reassurances for the white farmers after independence, their prominence was doomed from the year 2000 when they were attacked, killed and their land grabbed. The economy has not recovered from that onslaught. To fight for what is right has been a long battle and many have tired.
People Changing Places
While migration and population settlement have always been an important feature of political life throughout the world, the dramatic changes in the pace, direction, and complexity of contemporary migration flows are undoubtedly unique. Despite the economic benefits often associated with global, regional, and internal migration, the arrival of large numbers of migrants can exacerbate tensions and give rise to violent clashes between local populations and recent arrivals. This volume takes stock of these trends by canvassing the globe to generate new conceptual, empirical, and theoretical contributions. The analyses ultimately reveal the critical role of the state as both an actor and arena in the migration-conflict nexus.
