I dedicate this book to all individuals who are concerned with the cause of a peaceful resolution of land redistribution and reform in Africa. I pray that those efforts will not go for naught. The book is also a remembrance of my late father, Mr. Martin Masitera, who was always troubled by the unsettled expropriations of land in Zimbabwe and which always made him question the presence of humanity in the land redistribution. In a way, this book acts as a means to responding to his questions, and I hope that the contributions somehow come close to his expectations. I also dedicate this book to my late mother, Felistas Bwanya Masitera, a women of high moral integrity, who was always committed to the upliftment of humanity. Through this book I also remember my late younger brother Daniel Masitera and my late daughter Anotidaishe Masitera. You guys left this world in your innocents. May the innocence of the young be the guiding light in enlightening individuals in the search for a lasting resolution to the land redistribution debacle in Africa and the world at large.
