We are grateful for the assistance that many people afforded us during this book project. Invaluable comments were received from various Zimbabwean researchers and activists at a workshop convened by the African Institute for Agrarian Studies (AIAS) in December 2009 in Harare. We received extensive feedback on some chapters from participants in the annual Agrarian Studies Summer School between 2009 and 2012 in Harare, Dar es Salaam and Grahamstown (Rhodes University). In this regard, special thanks are due to Issa Shivji and Ngwanza Kamata (University of Dar es Salaam), Dzodzi Tsikata (University of Ghana), Praveen Jha (Jawaharlal Nehru University), Fred Hendricks (Rhodes University), Lungisile Ntsebeza (University of Cape Town) and Marcelo Rosa and Antonadia Borges (University of Brasilia) for their critical comments. Shepherd Siziba and Godfrey Mahofa of the Department of Agricultural Economics and Extension at the University of Zimbabwe assisted us with some of the statistical analyses.
