Ethnicity, Development and the Dynamics of Political Domination in Southern Matabeleland
IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 19, Issue 4, Ver. III (Apr. 2014), PP 137-149 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Ethnicity, Development and the Dynamics of Political Domination in Southern Matabeleland Clifford Mabhena Institute of Development Studies- National University of Science and Technology-Bulawayo, Zimbabwe Abstract: This article argues that the hegemony of the Shona people in Zimbabwe has been largely influenced by ethnicity and the quest to dominate Matabeleland politically, socially and economically. Development marginalisation of Matabeleland region, I argue has been influenced by ethnicity and politics of revenge. The study used ethnography to collect data and hence in-depth interviews were used as data collection tools. The results of the study indicate that Matabeleland has been largely dominated by the Shona ethnic group, and arguments advanced by scholars for this dominance, it is argued, Ndebele dominated the Shona people in the 19th and 20th centuries. This was due to conquest by the marauding Ndebele warriors under the leadership of King Mzilikazi and latter on King Lobhengula. The ascendance of the Zimbabwe African National Union Patriotic Front (ZANUPF) in the 1980 independence elections opened the gates for the ascendancy of the Shona people as the party was pre-dominantly Shona speaking. The march to state house by the ZANUPF dominated party created a lot of tension between the two ethnic groups; Ndebele and Shona, and hence the lashing out of the fifth brigade in 1983 and 1984 in Matabeleland and Midlands provinces of the country. Key words: Hegemony, ethnicity, internal colonisation, marginalisation I. -

WOLFE* THE FIRST REQUISITE for African development is that African countries combine what little wealth and power they have toward the end of getting a greater share of the products of world industry. They may be able to get that greater share by forcing through better terms of trade or better terms in aid, but they will never get any greater share by continuing along present paths, whereby each weak and poor country "negotiates" separately with strong and rich developed countries and supranational emities such as the World Bank and major private companies.

Independence
This document was archived on 27 July 2017 Independence 1. The position before 1983 1.1 When a former British colony, associated state, protectorate etc, achieved independence within the Commonwealth, and made its own citizenship laws, a corresponding Independence Act was passed in the United Kingdom to deal with the consequences, e.g.: • To include the name of the newly independent country in s.1(3) of the BNA 1948; and, if necessary • To remove it from the list of protectorates etc in the current British Protectorates, Protected States and Protected Persons Order; and • To withdraw citizenship of the United Kingdom and Colonies from certain people who became citizens of the new country 1.2 Independence Acts of that period tended to follow a regular pattern and included, besides the provisions already mentioned, • the removal of entitlement to registration as a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies under s.6(2) of the BNA 1948 from the wife of a man who ceased to be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies on becoming a citizen of the new country • provision for residence in that country before independence to continue to count, for the purposes of naturalisation, under paragraph 1(b) of the Second Schedule to the 1948 Act • arrangements for the exercise in the new country of the Secretary of State's function of registration 2. Withdrawal of citizenship of the United Kingdom and Colonies 2.1 The provisions for the withdrawal of citizenship of the United Kingdom and Colonies ensured that nobody who held that citizenship immediately before the date of independence would be rendered stateless on that date. -
Northern Rhodesia: the Post-War Background, 1945–1953
2 Northern Rhodesia: The Post-War Background, 1945–1953 Andrew D. Roberts It is many years since I said anything new about the colonial history of Zambia, so I was flattered to be invited to contribute to this collection as well as to the conference on which it is based. There seemed to be two ways in which I could try to be useful. I shall sketch the background to Northern Rhodesia in the 1950s, by way of providing a context for the research papers which follow. And along the way I shall take note of themes and topics which still call for study, despite the recent revival of interest in late-colonial Zambia. Let us begin with the copper industry, which for a century has been so impor- tant a factor in Zambia’s history.1 We must recognise that it only began to prosper in 1949. During the last two years of World War II the mines were badly run down: existing workings were yielding diminishing grades of ore, and large-scale development was needed to gain access to ores of a quality which would – as in 1 A.D. Roberts, ‘Notes towards a financial history of copper mining in Northern Rhodesia’, Canadian Journal of African Studies, 16 (1982); L.J. Butler, Copper empire: Mining and the colonial state in Northern Rhodesia, c.1930–1964 (Basingstoke, 2007). 16 andrew d. roberts the later 1930s – compensate for the high costs of transport. Hence, from 1945 to 1949 the Rhodesian Selection Trust, which dominated two of the four operating mines, paid no dividends: it devoted net profits to mining development. -
Bishop Knight-Bruce (1891–1894)
CHAPTER ONE OCCUPYING THE GROUND: BISHOP KNIGHT-BRUCE (1891–1894) In 1891 the Church of the Province of South Africa (CPSA), a daughter church of the Church of England, expanded into Central Africa. A diocese was created by the Provincial Synod for an area north of the Diocese of Pretoria, which ended at the Limpopo River. This diocese, “for Mashonaland and the surrounding territories”,1 was one of the largest Anglican dioceses in the world. It was roughly the size of France, two-and-a-half times the size of Great Britain (see Map 1, p. xx). The central area of the original diocese is today divided into the fi ve dioceses of the Anglican Church in Zimbabwe (Harare, Matabeleland, Mutare, Central Zimbabwe and Masvingo). Mashonaland itself was little known to the outside world in 1891 and undefi ned, other than by its general topography and the distribu- tion within it of Shona-speaking peoples (‘the Mashona’). At its centre was a large, high plateau, well-wooded and watered. To the north, the land fell away to the Zambezi River; to the east, in the region of the Manyika people rose a mountainous barrier beyond which lay the colony of Portuguese East Africa. Much of the area was dominated by two peoples of Southern, Nguni, origin: the Gaza, in ‘Umzila’s country’ to the south-east;2 and the Ndebele (‘Matabele’), in the south-west (see Map 2, p. xxi). Ndebele territory (Matabeleland) was itself bordered to the south- west, across the Ramokwebana and Shashe Rivers, by territory known as ‘Khama’s country’: Khama was the leading chief of a number of native polities which had come under British infl uence, as the Bechuanaland Protectorate, in 1885.3 To the south-east of Matabeleland and south- west of Gazaland ran the Limpopo River, which served not only as an ecclesiastical boundary between the new Diocese of Mashonaland and 1 ‘The Bishop’s Letter: Resolutions: Section VII’, CMSA 6:64 (April 1891), xxxi. -
