Remaking Mutirikwi: Landscape, Water and Belonging in Southern Zimbabwe - Eastern Africa Series
Professor Joost Fontein
Finalist for the African Studies Association 2016 Melville J. Herskovits Award A detailed ethnographic and historical study of the implications of fast-track land reform in Zimbabwe from the perspective of those involvedin land occupations around Lake Mutirikwi, from the colonial period to the present day.
Publisher Marketing: Focuses on how claims and practices of belonging and autochthony articulate with practices of authority and power through the materialities of water and landscape. Deploying both anthropology and history, it examines how local contests provoked by land occupations around Lake Mutirikwi in the 2000s were animated by the entangled material and imaginative remnants of the past colonial and postcolonial regimes of rule through the form and substance of landscape.
Contributor Bio: Fontein, Joost Joost Fontein is a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow in Social Anthropology at the Centre of African Studies, University of Edinburgh.
