Zimbabwe Under Mugabe
Hunger, fear, corruption.

APRIL 3, 2006. For a crash course on Mugabe's Zimbabwe, read Doris Lessing's scathing and indispensable The Jewel of Africa, then check out the Amnesty International Report 2005 and Human Rights Watch overview. Go to the Zimbabwe Situation for information about the country from the perspective of the embattled opposition.

For a New Yorker's look at Zimbabwe, check out the links below for Nat Hentoff's seven-part series in The Village Voice.
