National Security Is a Sensitive Subject. a Country's Survival, Growth
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY National security is a sensitive subject. A country’s survival, growth and development depend on a well crafted and consciously implemented national security policy. By nature, national security implementation should always be at a competitive edge relative to internal and external security threats. As a result, the state cannot easily disclose or expose its national security policies and plans without sufficient cause. Zimbabwe’s national security implementation is guided and instructed by the Public Order and Security Act, the Official Secrets Act and the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act. These acts complement one another and are applied flexibly enough to suit the prevailing circumstances The Acts ensure that order, peace and stability prevail, and that the state’s secrets are protected from those who are not entitled to them. State secrets are the preserve of responsible authorities who implement them to control the variables that affect the survival, growth and development of the state. While the call for the right to access to information may sound cogent, it is important to note that it cannot be guaranteed that the information will not be used against the interests of the state and private individuals. In the Zimbabwean context, the phenomenon of the public demanding access to security information is not significant. The public is aware of the sensitivity of state secrets and security information, and it is not common to identify ordinary people craving for security information. Those who demand the information are political malcontents bent on finding a pretext for fomenting anarchy. Public order is maintained by the Zimbabwe Republic Police, and national defence is guaranteed by the Zimbabwe Defence Forces, but for effective protection of the nation, security information is the preserve of those entitled to access it and use it, and not just anybody who might use it against the interests of the state. -

Abstract Approximately one quarter of Zimbabwean adults left their country of birth during the past twenty years. These sojourners are increasingly dispersed as tightening immigration regimes in preferred destinations and fluctuating global opportunities lead them to places with fewer historical links to Zimbabwe. This dispersive process fractures many families between multiple international locations. Nevertheless, the idea of family remains centrally important to diasporans, who work with relatives around the world to care for children and elders, to acquire important documents like passports, and to prepare for an eventual return home. Following from performative and relational theorizations of kinship, this dissertation argues that collaborative projects are crucibles in which families are forged and reconfigured. This exploration of how dispersion shapes family life deploys three analytical lenses: history, space and technology. Contemporary journeys are historically linked to a century of dispossession and labor-migration in Southern Africa. Colonial governments used onerous “bioinformational regimes” to subjugate Africans and profit from their labor. -

When news of the find reached the diamond mining centre of Kimberley, reaction was mixed. Some entrepreneurs, particularly those bruised in the on-going fight to amalga- mate the diamond industry, made their way as fast as possible to the Rand. Others, with much less reason to gamble, like Cecil Rhodes, held back. -

Social Media and Political Participation in Zimbabwe
Journal of African Interdisciplinary Studies (JAIS): ISSN 2523-6725 (online) April 2018 Vol. 2, No. 4 Citation: Chikerema, A. F & Ncube, T. (2018). A New Wind of Media Freedom: Social Media and Political Participation in Zimbabwe. Journal of African Interdisciplinary Studies. 2(4), 64 - .74. A New Wind of Media Freedom: Social Media and Political Participation in Zimbabwe By Arthur Fidelis Chikerema and Tomy Ncube Abstract Social media in Zimbabwe has brought in a modified political genealogy with a hybrid of political participation. Having had successive years of post-independence characterized by media repression and premeditated media dishes that had the same ultra-patriotism and no sense of variety, the ushering in of social media diluted the repression. From a comparative perspective of reporting based on (AIPPA) Access to Information and Protection Act, (POSA) Public and Order Security Act and (BSA) Broadcasting Services Act, social media stands uncircumcised of any of legal statutes to govern and manipulate its traction. Born out a case study approach the research was largely exploratory, seeking to investigate the impact of social media in Zimbabwe on a political note with a sample size of 3 500. The paper established that social media was strongly engrained with a sense of messianic political touch as expressed by the political freedom, digital democracy and political participation that it has brought in within the political milieu as per the respondents. Collection of data was done through conducting focus group discussions and establishing questionnaires with a response rate of 91%. Key Terms: Political messaging, Social Media, Political Participation, Political Apathy, Political Culture, Political Blast Furnace, Political Conditioning. -
