Colonialism and Violence in Zimbabwe
Suffering, the experience of violation brought on by an act of violence or violent circumstances, is omnipresent in today's world - if only indirectly through global media representation. Despite this apparent immediacy, understanding how a person makes sense of his or her suffering tends to be fragmentary and often elusive. This book examines this key question through the lens of rural Zimbabwe and a frontier area on the border with Mozambique. …
Chapter Five. “Deadly Silence Predominates In This District” The Maji Maji War And Its Aftermath In Ungoni
During the Maji Maji war, the German colonial government concentrated its military efforts in the southwest region known as Ungoni or Songea District. This chapter demonstrates that the official explanation only partially explains the causes and course of the war in Ungoni. The main argument of the chapter is two-fold. First, the apparent unity among the Maji Maji warriors and supporters in Ungoni which worried the officials was not prescribed by…

Healing the wounds of war
How does a society less than two decades after a liberation war which involved large sections of the population come to terms with the memories of violence and war — a war in which there was no clear distinction between insurgent and counter‐insurgent, liberator and oppressor and in which the majority of the casualties can be found among the rural civilian population? This was a predicament not exclusive to Zimbabwe, but one which also applies to…
Penetrating' Foreign Lands
While it was happening, European expansion was often legitimised by evoking frontier images: pioneers setting off from the metropolis, penetrating wilderness in order to open access to resources, like minerals, living-space, and fertile lands. Central to the ideology of the frontier is the notion of 'no-man's land'. These 'pioneers', however, often had to face local inhabitants and their interpretations and uses of this land. Thus it will be argu…
