Topics
旁白:本集讲述了穆加贝统治下津巴布韦的农场入侵事件,以及由此引发的经济危机和政治动荡。穆加贝政府对白人农民的农场进行暴力侵占,导致大量人员伤亡和流离失所,也严重打击了津巴布韦的经济,引发了恶性通货膨胀。国际社会对穆加贝的独裁统治表示谴责。 Chipo Tendere博士:穆加贝政府利用暴力和军事策略来压制反对派,特别是白人农民和支持反对派的民众。对白人农民的袭击是经过精心策划的,目的是为了镇压反对派,摧毁争取民主变革运动(MDC)的势力基础。 Douglas Rogers:农场入侵不仅针对白人农民,也严重损害了黑人农场工人的利益,导致大量人员伤亡和流离失所。这是这段时期被忽视的故事。 Sue Onsler博士:媒体报道主要关注农场入侵事件对白人农民的影响,而忽视了对更广泛的黑人社区造成的贫困和剥夺。 Nathan Dodso记者:2000年的议会选举是重要的警示,显示了反对派的崛起和局势的变化。国际记者被指控为间谍,许多记者被迫离开津巴布韦。 Gabriel Schumba:他因参与政治活动多次被捕,并因代表反对派议员而遭到酷刑折磨,最终逃离津巴布韦。 Stephen Chan教授:土地改革导致津巴布韦农产品从英国超市下架,严重打击了该国经济。 受访者:民众对变革抱有乐观和焦虑的复杂情绪。“驱逐污秽行动”对城市居民的生活造成了毁灭性打击。恶性通货膨胀导致津巴布韦货币贬值严重,高面值钞票迅速贬值。穆加贝政权对经济崩溃漠不关心,因为他们可以通过恶性通货膨胀获得巨额财富。
