Much like the UN, the ICC brings representatives from all cricket-playing countries together to make administrative decisions about the future of cricket. Unlike the UN, however, not all countries have an equal input; the ICC decides which members are worthy of “Test” status (Full Members), and which are not (Associate Members). While the Council has experienced many successes, including hosting the prestigious World Cup and promoting cricket at a grassroots level, it also continues to receive its fair share of criticism, predominantly regarding the ICC’s perceived obstruction of the growth of the game within non- traditionally cricketing nations and prioritizing the commercialization of the sport over globalizing it.

    Sport and Racial Discrimination in Colonial Zimbabwe: a Reanalysis Reassessing the Myth of Multiracial Sport in Rhodesia Followi

    Sport and Racial Discrimination in Colonial Zimbabwe: A Reanalysis Reassessing the Myth of Multiracial Sport in Rhodesia Following the exclusion of South Africa from international sporting events because of strict racial segregation on the playing field in the late 1960s, the anti-apartheid movement focused on Rhodesia, a white minority-ruled country in south-central Africa that also had a tradition of racial discrimination. Sport in Rhodesia was never sharply segregated by law as in apartheid South Africa, and a strong narrative developed both in Rhodesia and in the international press that Rhodesian sport was multiracial and should not be punished as South African sport had been.1 The minority white settler population fervently believed segregation in Rhodesia was never as insidious or complete as segregation in South Africa.2 However, racial discrimination in sport still did take place in Rhodesian sport in less overt ways, as sport was a sphere of contested control for much of the colonial period of Southern Rhodesia and then the period of unilateral independence after the white settler minority seceded from the British Empire in 1965. The development of sport in majority-ruled Zimbabwe after 1980 bore a strong imprint of the racialization of sport in colonial Rhodesia. Sporting life in Rhodesia was especially vibrant as the white settler community fully participated in a sporting culture that could rival Britain itself. Sport was an important tool of social acculturation and identity-formation among white settlers themselves, but it also proved to be a tool of social control over the black African population. British colonizers viewed sport as a ‘civilizing’ device to teach important lessons of hygiene and fitness in a manner strictly controlled by the white state.3 However, because of the importance sport held to the white settler minority, it remained a site of social protest and incomplete domination, and some black African autonomy survived in association football, athletics, and other sports.

    The 2003 Cricket World Cup: Implications for Identity Formation and Democratization Prospects for Zimbabwe

    The 2003 Cricket World Cup: Implications for identity formation and democratization prospects for Zimbabwe By Justin Daniel Sean van der Merwe Assignment presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Philosophy at the University of Stellenbosch Supervisor: Dr Janis van der Westhuizen Department Political Science University of Stellenbosch April 2004 Declaration I, the undersigned ........................................................ hereby declare that the work contained in this assignment is my own original work and that I have not previously submitted it in its entirety or in part at any university for a degree ............................... .............................. Signature Date i Abstract There can be little doubt about the ability of major international sporting events to capture the aspirations and hopes of nations. These events have an uncanny ability of seemingly effortlessly doing what a hundred speeches and mass rallies by politicians could only hope to achieve. Therefore, it is no surprise that they are commonly understood to be able to bring nations and people together and provide a focus for national identity and unity. The 1995 Rugby World Cup in South Africa is an obvious proponent of such a claim, whereby South Africa was emerging from a long and arduous political transition and needed something more than going to the polling booths to unite the nation. Major international sporting events are also said to be able to provide a catalyst or incentive for democratization and human rights enhancement in authoritarian or semi-authoritarian regimes. The 1988 Olympics in South Korea is a landmark of such claims whereby the South Korean government was said to bow to the democratizing pressures exerted on it due to its hosting of the event.

This unique series combines aspects of the expanding study of sport in the global society, providing comprehensiveness and comparison under one editorial umbrella. It is particularly timely, with studies in the political, cultural, anthropological, ethnographic, social, economic, geographical and aesthetic elements of sport proliferating in institutions of higher education. Eric Hobsbawm once called sport one of the most significant practices of the late nineteenth century. Its significance was even more marked in the late twentieth century and will continue to grow in importance into the new millennium as the world develops into a ‘global village’ sharing the English language, technology and sport.

    Rebuilding Zimbabwe: Australia's Role in Supporting the Transition

    POLICY BRIEF October 2009 Rebuilding Zimbabwe: JOEL NEGIN School of Public Health Australia’s Role in University of Sydney and Supporting the Transition The Earth Institute Columbia University [email protected] What is the problem? JOLYON FORD What should Australia do to assist Zimbabwe’s re-emergence? In Centre for International Governance and Justice March 2009, Australia became the first major donor country to Australian National University provide assistance to the new power-sharing government in Zimbabwe. [email protected] Given the pervading influence of hardline elements, many doubt the merits and viability of the ‘inclusive government’. Ought Australia continue its support, accepting the risk of buttressing Mugabe and his regime? Or should Australia stand back and maintain pressure for a more acceptable government – at the risk of contributing to the inclusive government’s failure? What should be done? Despite the substantial risks, external assistance now can help sustain momentum for reform, and sustain public belief in a post-Mugabe era. Aid can be managed to avoid reinforcing the position of ZANU-PF elites. Engagement with Zimbabwe can provide lessons for Australia’s development assistance in Africa and elsewhere, including policy lessons on aid engagement during sensitive political transitions. Having affirmed its support for the fragile recovery process in Zimbabwe, Australia should continue its assistance in select areas where it has a comparative advantage, but should be highly innovative within these niche areas. Australia should expand its support to food security among small-scale farmers, with a focus on enabling a transition from food aid to self-sufficiency.
