| Summary | Annotation Every country has a national history, one that is taught to children in schools. It represents a coherent portrayal of preceding centuries gilded by national pride and self-righteousness. Such histories leave traces on our consciousness and help to make nations what they are. Damage: The Personal Costs of Political Change presents us with thirty personal histories that raise questions about the nature of commitment to a Zimbabwean identity. The contributors share a passion for making a difference and a sense of personal responsibility for the future of their country; this is what made each of them a victim of persecution. Becoming a victim too often implies losing one's identity though the loss of possessions, community and human rights. These stories cast a telling light on a critical period of Zimbabwe's history; we hope that their publication will also enable the contributors to find renewed strength and purpose. |
