In each and every society, certain groups of people are ‘marginalized’. By marginalization here we mean being disregarded, ostracized, harassed, disliked, persecuted, or generally looked down upon. Such people often include women and children, the poor, the disabled, people of different sexual orientation, ethnic minorities, religious minorities, refugees, among others. In short, the marginalized are those people who are so-cially, politically, culturally, or economically excluded from mainstream society. For this reason, J. Hampson (1990) sees all the rural people in Zimbabwe as disadvantaged and therefore marginalized when compared to their urban counterparts. This observation is very important as it has implications in the voting patterns that we have seen in post-colonial Zimbabwe. Musasiwa (in this volume) discusses, how lack of knowledge, and therefore power, makes democracy a mockery as those without knowledge are made to make choices while they are disempow-ered knowledge wise. The history of the marginalization of certain groups of people in Zimba-bwe goes back a long way. Traditionally, people with albinism, the disa-bled, the elderly and women were generally marginalized.
