  • Post-Populism in Zambia: Michael Sata's Rise
    This is the accepted version of the article which is published by Sage in International Political Science Review, Volume: 38 issue: 4, page(s): 456-472 available at: https://doi.org/10.1177/0192512117720809 Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/24592/ Post-populism in Zambia: Michael Sata’s rise, demise and legacy Alastair Fraser SOAS University of London, UK Abstract Models explaining populism as a policy response to the interests of the urban poor struggle to understand the instability of populist mobilisations. A focus on political theatre is more helpful. This article extends the debate on populist performance, showing how populists typically do not produce rehearsed performances to passive audiences. In drawing ‘the people’ on stage they are forced to improvise. As a result, populist performances are rarely sustained. The article describes the Zambian Patriotic Front’s (PF) theatrical insurrection in 2006 and its evolution over the next decade. The PF’s populist aspect had faded by 2008 and gradually disappeared in parallel with its leader Michael Sata’s ill-health and eventual death in 2014. The party was nonetheless electorally successful. The article accounts for this evolution and describes a ‘post-populist’ legacy featuring hyper- partisanship, violence and authoritarianism. Intolerance was justified in the populist moment as a reflection of anger at inequality; it now floats free of any programme. Keywords Elections, populism, political theatre, Laclau, Zambia, Sata, Patriotic Front Introduction This article both contributes to the thin theoretic literature on ‘post-populism’ and develops an illustrative case. It discusses the explosive arrival of the Patriotic Front (PF) on the Zambian electoral scene in 2006 and the party’s subsequent evolution.

  • National Investment Plan to Reduce Deforestation and Forest Degradation (2018-2022)
    Republic of Zambia Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources National Investment Plan to Reduce Deforestation and Forest Degradation (2018-2022) November 2017 -i- Executive Summary Zambia has approximately 49.9 million hectares of forest, representing approximately 66 percent of its total land mass and is subsequently one of the most forested countries in southern Africa. However, deforestation is a major problem, with annual rates estimated at around 250,000 to 300,000 hectares. Such numbers amount to the potential loss of 10 million hectares of forest in the next 30 years (IDLO, 2014). The key drivers of deforestation and forest degradation in Zambia are agricultural expansion (commercial and subsistence), heavy reliance on wood fuel – energy demand (charcoal and firewood), unsustainable timber extraction (both legal and illegal) and infrastructure development (e.g., mining and other large infrastructural developments). A study by UN-REDD, (2015) on the economic value of Zambia’s forest ecosystems showed that the direct and indirect values of forests are estimated to make a direct contribution equivalent to about 4.7% of gross domestic product (GDP) or US$957.5 million (using 2010 figures). However, when the multiplier effects of forestry and tourism-related activities on other sectors are considered, the overall or economy-wide contribution of forests to GDP is estimated to be at least 6.3% or US$1,277 million (Table 1). Forests are estimated to provide at least 1.4 million jobs, supporting 60% of rural Zambian households, heavily dependent upon the use of natural resources to supplement or sustain their livelihoods (UN-REDD., 2015).
