Since 1998 Mugabe's policies have increasingly elicited domestic and international denunciation. Mugabe's government pursued a costly intervention in the Second Congo War, expropriated thousands of white-owned farms,[1] printed hundreds of trillions of Zimbabwean dollars triggering hyperinflation,[2] and harassed and intimidated political opponents like members of the Movement for Democratic Change.[3] Zimbabwe's economy spiraled downward,[4] with food and oil shortages[5] and massive internal displacement[6] and emigration.[7][8]
