A NOTE ON ANONYMITY AND FIELDWORK
In this book, both the names of Chimoio’s bairros and the name of the rural community which I call “Honde,” in which fieldwork has been carried out over several different periods, remain undisclosed. I have also chosen to anonymize the names of all interlocutors, barring those who are prominent public figures and therefore could not for the sake of analysis remain anonymous. In the few photos of people I have included, their faces have been digitally obscured. The decision to anonymize was one I did not reach lightly. In one sense, the book loses important dimensions of what one could term the vitality and presence of ethnographic detail by not being able to, for example, convey full life stories replete with photographs, names, and ages or to present localities with detailed sociological data in terms of, for example, lineages, political positions, occupation, and income.
