Political Corporatism Against International Nongovernmental Organisations in Post- 2000 Zimbabwe : Was the State Justified?

Post-2000 Zimbabwe has been criticised for the excessive use of repression subsequent to the opposition groups' failed attempts to gain political power. This paper uses secondary sources such as existing literature, parliamentary debates, speeches, and newspaper articles to argue that international non-governmental organisations (INGOs) have a record of toppling legitimate governments and installing ones partial to the West. The paper draws evidence from the international arena and argues that post-2000 Zimbabwe was justified, under those circumstances, in applying repressive strategies against international nongovernmental organisations.
