Correspondence: Zimbabwe and China

3 July 2008

Dear SD

As the eyes of the world turn away from Zimbabwe and towards China, many will begin to see similarities between the two counties.

Both states appear to be fighting a revolutionary war against themselves. 

Terry Eagleton once described the process thus:

"If you base a revolution just on the peasantry you get Stalinism".

Is that true? 

Yours

Claudius
