Research interests

Thembani Dube works on pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial Southern African History (Zimbabwe in particular) with special interest in social history, identity and belonging. Her current work focuses on migrant identities and belonging amongst marginal communities. She is currently working on, Kalanga: Identity, language and change in Zimbabwe, 1800-2022, a monograph that explores the (un)making of the Kalanga and how this identity evolved over time mediated by different institutions such as chieftainship, religion and language in colonial and post-colonial states.

Supervision interests
