Firstly, he strains to find explana tions for Renamo activities which seem incompatible with the building of a political base. But his ar guments only clarify that those who formulate Renamo strategy have not been until recently particularly con cerned with its political legitimacy. Geffray asks at one point, for ex ample, why Renamo undertakes the random massacres on the roads. His answer: \"Almost all travellers are people from the town and cities or they are country-folk with a network of urban contacts, caught out pre cisely when they were coming or go ing to town. These people belong to the strata of the population whose conditions were profoundly trans formed in the colonial situation: em ployees, workers, traders, artisans, wealthy businessmen engaged in tri lateral or quadrilateral trade, the unemployed living on odd jobs and dealing, women visiting their rural in-laws or coming back with a sack of cassava, families looking for a cousin who has made it in town ... In other words, the travellers in the convoys are people whose condition is op posed to that of those marginalized by the colonial state and left to fend for themselves by the independent state, those who entered into dissijanuary 1992 dence against this state and placed themselves massively under the shel ter of Renamo's weapons\" (p.216). In fact, all rural families whom I have met in Mozambique, includ ing in those areas of north-central Nampula which Geffray considers marginalized, have kin and friends on the roads. By stopping the move ment of people and goods in the country Renamo does more than, in Geffray's phrase, \"gravely affect the material and social living conditions of the urban and peri-urban milieu.\" He does not see how debilitating the breakdown of trade has been for ru ral people themselves (even though he has previously noted that this is one of the factors that has led to disenchantment with Renamo in its occupied zones). If we do not as sume that Renamo has been con cerned with building a popular base in the first place, then the reason be hind the attacks on rural transport are transparent. Stopping trade will certainly undermine any pro grams of social or productive invest ment and undermine Frelimo's pop ular base by worsening the standard of living in both country and city.
