This article seeks to ftll this void in mainstream labour studies. It focuses on the \"use\" and abuse of elderly workers on large-scale commercial farms in Zimbabwe. Elderly workers have existed either as a recognized group of \"special\" workers or \"invisibly\" as part of ordinary workers. The article examines the nature and extent of exploitation and discrimination of elderly workers, particularly their confinement to the so-called \"light\" tasks. The central issue of comfortable retirement is also put under the spotlight. Aspects of pension and other terminal benefits are discussed in the light of general provision for old-age. The article grapples with the government's land reform programme and its adverse effects on farm workers who lack ethnic and nationality rights to own land. For many \"foreign\" workers, prospects of returning to countries of origin have become more remote by the years due to several factors, and, yet, women, children and the elderly were probably the worst affected by farm \"invasions\" that characterised the government's controversial \"fast-track\" land redistribution exercise since early 2000.","PeriodicalId":83564,"journal":{"name":"Zambezia","volume":"1 1","pages":"12-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89277521","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}

In 1945, Soviet Russian and American troops in Torgau at the Elbe shook hands over the ruins of an old Europe that never would dominate the world as it had done before. A bipolar world order had come into being, now dominated by anti-colonial superpowers. Yet, many European nations were still clinging to their overseas colonies in the hope that they could contribute to repairing their diminished political and economic position and prestige in the new global context. New approaches had to be developed and choices made regarding the world-wide changes affecting also the colonies still under European control, and affecting, likewise, Catholic and Protestant Missions operating there. This article deals with the decolonisation processes of the British colony, Ghana, and the Portuguese colony, Angola, and how churches and their missions were involved in these processes. The year 1992 has been chosen as the terminus ad quem because, in that year, elections took place in both Ghana and Angola, though in quite different circumstances and with quite different results.","PeriodicalId":83564,"journal":{"name":"Zambezia","volume":"IA-19 1","pages":"38-59"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84600173","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}

In experiments 1 and \u00002, KK made a disproportionately greater number of speech production errors \u0000in response to orthographically and phonologically presented Shona words \u0000compared to control subjects. No difference was observed between KKâ€™s \u0000performance and that of the control subjects when the same tasks were \u0000administered using common English words. The results obtained in \u0000experiment 3 showed that although KK found it extremely difficult to read \u0000aloud (or repeat after the experimenter) common Shona words, her ability \u0000to access the correct meanings of these words was not impaired. KKâ€™s \u0000performance in a task which required her to select the correct meaning in \u0000English of 60 common Shona words was well above chance (90%+ correct). \u0000It is argued that KKâ€™s problems occur at the phonological output level.

This was followed by an analysis of the log odds of a farm household adopting improved fanning methods in relation to its status with respect to training, distance from the Training Centre and other social characteristics. Unlike with resources owned, there is a more systematic relationship between taking the offer of training with non-resource household characteristics - education, sex, age and the prior residence and occupation of re(settlers). Paradoxically, the probability of a more educated household head joining the course is much smaller than the less educated. Among the hypothesised household characteristics leading to the adoption of improved farming practices, whether the farmer was trained or not is the most important. This is followed by the educational level of female, run households [as actual or de facto heads in the case of migrant husbands]. The results of the logistics regression clearly established a strong and statistically significant relationship between the probability of adoption on the one hand, training and, to some extent, urban origins and prior farming occupations, on the other. Those who own more cattle and oxen are also more likely to train and adopt innovations.","PeriodicalId":83564,"journal":{"name":"Zambezia","volume":"31 1","pages":"167-188"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87581339","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}
