Summary:This study attempts an eclectic approach on the nexus between the Zimbabwean crisis, migration and identity using postcolonial theory in exploring Zimbabwean post-colonial politics. An extensive investigation into the nexus between the Zimbabwean crisis, migration and identity through re-tracing the past historical experiences of Zimbabwe is made while at the same time consulting a wide range of post colonial literature that falls within the field. I also consider the phenomena of migration within and beyond national boundaries. In addition, the study considers the formation of various immigrant identities particularly in the diaspora as well as the factors which trigger these identity formations.
