Economic War | South Africa | Zimbabwe | Emmerson Mnangagwa | This Week | 1986 |

This is a slightly shortened version of the original report.
What can the Front-Line States do to protect themselves in the economic war South Africa is waging against them? By blocking other routes. South Africa forces 75% of their trade through its ports. The battle is on to change that balance of power.
THIS WEEK traveled down the Beira Corridor where thousands of Zimbabwean troops guard the vital two hundred miles of railroad and pipeline between their boarder and the coast of Beira. The corridor is subject to attacks from the “bandidos”, the South African backed MNR or Renamo who are trying to destabilize the already collapsing Mozambique. At the end of the corridor Beira has desperate problems. No power for three months, no water for three weeks and an economy so out of control that one man’s wages for a week will buy a couple of cabbages.

The economic situation did not improve for Zimbabwe when South Africa achieved majority rule. When Mugabe was conducting a military campaign, destroying infrastructure and disrupting farming, against his own country in the 70s this was the biggest economic problem the country faced. When Mugabe was in charge of the government of the country in the 80s and 90s this was an even greater economic problem. Recession, corruption, unemployment hyperinflation, degradation of public utilities and confiscation of private property was the result.

[@alibabakano2971]

[@davidstirk4732]

@@alibabakano2971 There was inequality under colonial rule but government officials seizing commercial farms and displacing farmers and farm workers was a big problem for the country. The Zanu PF government officials corruptly benefitted from taking over the farms (stealing the crops that were ready to harvest and then selling all the trees for firewood and selling off the farm equipment they had stolen) and where poor blacks were allowed a small piece of this land it was reduced to subsistence agriculture. Agricultural production dropped massively after the farm seizures. Tens of thousands of farm workers became destitute and had to move to the cities where there was no employment. The economy shrunk. If you live in Zimbabwe you know that living standards dropped for most Zimbabweans after the farm invasions. The Zimbabwe Commercial Farmers Union presented a plan to the government that would donate land to rural black farmers and the Commercial Farmers would work with them to teach modern farming methods and assist by lending farm machinery and purchasing inputs. Zanu PF rejected this plan and went ahead with the farm invasions. An opportunity lost. There is inequality in all African countries. In fact there is inequality in most countries in the world. Just because the inequality only involves one race does not make this 'inequality' more acceptable than racial inequality. All inequality is unjust.

[@JustanothaGuy]

Alright, I'll treat this as a legitimate question instead of white nationalist stupidity. Apartheid South Africa was a settler society constructed on the usage and exploitation of cheap African labor, the Bantustans further reinforced the hope and dream of the Afrikaners to split off and ensure a European hegemony over the country. There was no intention of ever integrating the Black Africans into the wealthy sectors of the economy, instead, the Afrikaners needed cheap labor to enrich their sector of the economy this combined with explicit systems of segregation and intentional efforts to enure few Black Africans were sufficiently educated had created a system of two-tier citizenship and wealth distribution with Whites being wealthy and their communities benefitting from this wealth and Black South Africans being incredibly poor with no prospects for upward mobility. The Post-Apartheid South Africa inherited a country literally built to screw over Black Africans and enrich White South Africans, who by the way still own a disproportionately large amount of wealth and the benefit of greater funding and support for education. In other words, the challenges faced by South Africa today are physically ingrained into the country's very structure and expecting any rapid movement towards greater prosperity amongst its population displays a strong ignorance on your behalf or displays that you have no idea what Apartheid was or how exactly wealth in South Africa was distributed prior to the end of apartheid.

[@arkuis]

@@JustanothaGuy All very true but not quite the whole truth. You have let the current South African government off the hook for terrible rates of corruption and a widespread inability to deliver basic government services.

[@JustanothaGuy]

@@arkuis As for corruption, it's only one element of the larger socio-economic issue facing South Africa, by the mid-1980s, the economy was distorted by government policies designed to bolster the economic and political power of a small minority and to exclude many of South Africa's citizens, selected by race, from significant participation in the nation's wealth. Basic needs were unmet, resulting in hunger, malnutrition, and undereducation, especially in rural areas. Industrial development could not be sustained through domestic resources, and there was stagnation in some areas when foreign capital was reduced in the face of strong international pressures for political reform. Because the mining industry continued to dominate the economy, fluctuations eroded currency values and reduced the country's ability to import goods. At the same time, keeping black wages low, which was crucial to profits in all areas of the economy, perpetuated the discrimination that provoked widespread protests and condemnation. (Herbst, Jeffrey & Mills, Greg (2015). How South Africa Works: And Must Do Better. Pan Macmillan South Africa., Yager, Thomas R. (September 2010). "The Mineral Industry of South Africa" (PDF). US Geological Survey. p. 37.1. Archived from the original (PDF) on 7 April 2012.) So the way South Africa was set up is actually almost entirely responsible for the crippling poverty facing notice how I focused on a particular group. By the early 1990s, the weaknesses and flaws of the racialized economy were increasingly evident despite the country's dazzling mineral wealth. Some segments of the population were poorer and living in more difficult circumstances than many people in far less developed African countries. Moreover, a poorly educated, impoverished majority of the population could not provide the skills and the resources that the country's infrastructure and labor market required. With the end of apartheid in the early 1990s, to confront the serious economic problems caused by that system. The new government in the mid-1990s faced the enormous challenges of improving living standards and managing the country's resources profitably, however considering that South Africa only changed formal economic and social discrimination and did nothing to change the political and economic structures which were effectively designed to benefit a small group and enrich the elite who ruled South Africa. So it's significantly more than corruption, it's the entire State of South Africa was designed and geared toward the disenfranchisement of a majority and designed to benefit a minority, thus governing it post-apartheid faces the difficult challenge of undoing that cycle, you also pretend that Apartheid South Africa wasn't corrupt but this is bullshit, before the end of Apartheid, South Africa's civil service was a pervasive medium for rent-seeking and the preferential treatment of Afrikaners. (Jonathan Hyslop (2005) Political Corruption: Before and After Apartheid, Journal of Southern African Studies, 31:4, 773-789, DOI: 10.1080/03057070500370555). Policies favoring Afrikaner cultural and educational systems, the awarding of government contracts to Afrikaner businesses, and the funding of parastatal Afrikaner organizations was a common phenomenon during the era of Apartheid. (Sergio Fernandez. 2020. Apartheid and the Bureaucracy. Representative Bureaucracy and Performance, pages 23-68.) The building of rural homeland states in the 1980s created ideal projects for rent-seeking with many homeland leaders presiding over massive patronage networks. Thus Corruption was an inheritance from the past government ingrained deeply into the governance of South Africa by its white minority so no corruption isn't something new South Africa it's still debate of the ultimate origin but the pattern is well established in the apartheid-era regime. (Lukasiewicz!, Mariusz (2014). "Still walking to freedom? A historical retrospective of the first 20 years of South African democracy". Current Affairs in Perspectives (4).) It's just racist idiots like you love to racialize South Africa's problems to "Black People Bad!!" when in reality South Africa's issues stem from its founding sin, Settler-Colonialism, and Apartheid. This is, however, part of a larger issue at hand, the institutional woes and political instability of Africa stem primarily from the exploitation minded border drawing and the structures of power left behind by the Europeans. The frontiers and borders in Africa and elsewhere that have been colonized are not only artificial but the primary roots of conflict and political instability today. Ethnic tensions exploited by Western Imperialists were exacerbated by artificial boundaries designed to further ingrain those rivalries thereby making exploitation significantly easier for the West this accompanied by Western states especially during the cold war planting regimes and dictators who were friendly to their interests (i.e. France Afrique or the overthrow of Patrice Lumumba). Exploitation also limited and usually decimated Africa's capacity for serious economic growth (Miles, William F. S. (2014-07-01). Scars of Partition: Postcolonial Legacies in French and British Borderlands. U of Nebraska Press. p. 3., Herbst, Jeffrey (1989). "The creation and maintenance of national boundaries in Africa". International Organization. 43 (4): 673-692., Rodney, Walter (2011-10-01). How Europe Underdeveloped Africa. Black Classic Press. pp. 147-203.) South Africa's issues are ingrained in the way it was created the Afrikaners built an ineffectual state whose sole purpose was to benefit one particular demographic, Whites, the end of apartheid did not see any real dismantling of the structures which characterized the apartheid era other than formalized segregation and the displacement of Native peoples into Bantustans, but the economic effect of apartheid was never dismantled.

Contrary to popular belief, Rhodesia didn't actually have racist laws, but what was called "qualified franchise", in which you had to have a basic education in order to vote. Most blacks did not qualify but the Rhodesian government struggled to educate them, even setting up affirmative action for blacks in universities. This was to prevent people like Mugabe from getting elected by an uneducated, superstitious, tribalist majority who quite frankly hated others of different tribes.

They wanted dependency of Front line states on South Africa, now most of the Africans are flooding SA because they were crippled when they had young leaders that had the energy to run their own countries. It's sad want this apartheid gvt did to the region. I am glad to hear a white man say " we are Africans and here to stay" Let's live in harmony economically and we would never violently grab back our land and mines. Inequality pushes us to reclaim without compensation. Still we rise. I am an African
