Anthropologist Pamela Reynolds shares her fieldwork diary from her time spent in Zimbabwe's Zambezi valley during the 1980s, in which she recounts the difficulties, pleasures, and contradictions of studying the daily lives of the Tonga people three decades after their forced displacement.
Describes, from the perspective of the young anti-apartheid fighters, the tactics that young local leaders used and how the state retaliated
In this, the first comprehensive study of the Tonga people in Zimbabwe, Pamela Reynolds focuses on children's work in a subsistence agricultural system, assessing how much work they do, the value of their work to their families and how it both limits their opportunities and fosters their personal growth and knowledge.
Based on the author's fieldwork among the people of Zezuru, this title focuses on children as clients and as healers in training. It examines spiritual interpretation and remediation of children's problems, including women's roles in these activities, and the Zezuru concepts of trauma, evil, illness, and death.
