Summary
"This book examines the ways in which political discourses of 'newness' are (re)produced, circulated, naturalised, received and contested in Post-Mugabe Zimbabwe. Going beyond the ordinariness of conventional political science methods and theories, the book offers new, engaging and multi-disciplinary approaches that treat discourse and language as important sites to encounter the politics of contested representations and framings of the worsening crisis in Zimbabwe in the context of the 2017 Zimbabwean transition and the new leadership's legitimacy debacle. The book centres discourse in new approaches to contestations around representations and meanings of various aspects of the socio-economic and political crisis in the wake of the 2017 leadership changes. Chapter contributions will examine some of the ways in which language functions as a discursive mechanism for creating imaginaries, circulating, defending and contesting conceptions, visions, perceptions and knowledges of the post-Mugabe turn in the crisis and its management by the government. This book will be of interest to scholars of African Studies, Postcolonial Studies, Language/Discourse Studies, African politics and culture"--
