Introduction: The Past, Present and Future in Zimbabwe’s Communal Areas

Michael Drinkwater

Chapter 1 in The State and Agrarian Change in Zimbabwe’s Communal Areas, 1991, pp 1-27 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This book examines the impact government policy has had on agrarian change in Zimbabwe’s peasant farming areas over the course of this century. My intention is to find a means of linking an analysis of past and present change with a practical interest in the future. Since such a task accords with the telos of critical theory, that of Jürgen Habermas has been used to inform the theory and method used in this study.1
