RECLAIMING THE ZIMBABWEAN VOICE IN MEDIA AND EDUCATION

Abstract

The poltics of domination is rampant in the Zimbabwean political and social arenas .In more definate terms ,the practice is really dehumanizing in that it denies human beings the right to map and shape their own destinies in politics ;that is,having a voice in policy formulation inevitably leading to underdevelopment.The dominant areas of dominant areas ofinteraction that are controlled politically are the areas of media and education.The two are core areas of free interaction,as will be argued in the essay.In attempt to reclaim tthe voice the author suggests using another realm in the public sphere ,which is the cevil society.Civil society offers objectivity and credibility ,since it offers space for critic-creative ducation (C.C.E) that will be chaneled through media for development(M.F.D) .These concepts objectivity,creativity,involvement,improvement and credibility are necessary for honest and true develpment in Zimbabwe.
