Prior to the coup, civil-military relations were strained and the military was unleashed by the government on the civilians to undermine democracy. During the ouster of Mugabe the military used the civilians to demonstrate thereby legitimising their putsch. There was euphoria among the civilians that this was the beginning of democracy and the stabilisation of civil-military relations. However the exultation suffered from stillbirth as the military continued with its traditional practice of untethering violence and coercion on the civilian, in the post-Mugabe epoch militarisation reached its crescendo. This research analyses civil-military relations in the context of the role of the military in the 2018 elections, militarisation of artisanal small-scale mining in Zimbabwe and the collision of militarisation and state capture. This paper argues that the political vicissitude heralded the military-executive alliance that employs an orgy of violence on the civilians hence this exacerbates strained civil-military relations in Zimbabwe and cast a horrendous situation for democracy in the future. The Corona virus 2019 (COVID 19) lockdowns rules and regulations have aggravated the relations as the military used comprehensive surveillance against the civilians.

There are numerous legal arrangements that have been established by the GoZ for the management of the country’s external public debt. This paper therefore examines the legal arrangements put in place for the management of external public debt in Zimbabwe. Methodologically, the paper was based on a qualitative approach and relied on secondary data obtained from original or primary sources. Findings from the paper reveal that, the legal framework for debt management in Zimbabwe comprises of; the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment (No. 20) Act 2013, the Public Finance Management Act [Chapter 22:19] of 2009, the Public Debt Management Act [Chapter 22:21] of 2015 as well as the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe Act [Chapter 22:15] of 2010. However, even though such a legal framework somewhat meets the minimum acceptable standards for the management of external public debt, it can be noted that there have some areas of concern with the current legislation framework that required attention. Such a scenario therefore undermines the effective management of the country’s external public debt. This paper thus recommends that there is need to reform the legal framework for the management of external public debt in Zimbabwe.","PeriodicalId":38248,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Law and Policy","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85437423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
