A Experts' Roundtable on Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe has recently been gripped in power struggle between President Robert Mugabe and the political opposition that calls for democratic reform. Though Mugabe won the recent presidential election, the United States and much of the international community has called the vote illegitimate. I recently spoke with four people who know the country well: Michelle Gavin of the Council on Foreign Relations, Philip Gourevitch of the Paris Review and the New Yorker Magazine, Chenjerai Hove of Brown University, and Andrew Meldrum, a journalist who covered the country for two decades before he was expelled.
