Robert Gabriel Mugabe, Empire and the Decolonisation of African Orifices Edited by Artwell Nhemachena and Tapiwa Victor Warikandwa Tracing recent bouts of globalised Mugabephobia to Robert Mugabe’s refusal to be neoimperially penetrated, this book juxtaposes economic liberalisation with the mounting liberalisation of African orifices. Reading land repossession and economic structural adjustment programmes together with what is called neoimperial structural adjustment of African orifices, the authors argue that there has been liberalisation of African orifices in a context where Africans are ironically prevented from repossessing their material resources. Juxtaposing recent bouts of Mugabephobia with discourses on homophobia, the book asks why empire prefers liberalising African orifices rather than attending to African demands for restitution, restoration and reparations. Noting that empire opposes African sovereignty, autonomy, and centralisation of power while paradoxically promoting transnational corporations’ centralisation of power over African economies, the book challenges contemporary discourses about shared sovereignty, distributed governance, heterarchy, heteronomy and onticology. Provocatively questioning queer sexuality and liberalised orifices which serve to divert African attention from the more serious unfinished business of repossessing material resources, the book insightfully compares Robert Gabriel Mugabe, Thomas Sankara and Julius Kambarage Nyerere who emphasised the imperatives of African autonomy, ownership, control and sovereignty over natural resources. With insights for scholars in sociology, development studies, law, politics, African studies, anthropology, transformation, decolonisation and decoloniality, the book argues that liberal democracy is a façade in a world that is actually ruled through criminocracy. Artwell Nhemachena lectures in Sociology at the University of Namibia Tapiwa Victor Warikandwa is a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Law at the University of Namibia. 480 pages | 244 x 170 mm | 2019 | Langaa RPCIG, Cameroon Paperback: 978-9956-5505-6-2 $62/£50 www.africanbookscollective.com 1 Dani Nabudere’s Genre et Afrikology fondamentalismes A Quest for
