Abstract
This paper explores some issues of the contested Zimbabwean 2008 Presidential Election asit was represented in one-frame political cartoons published in a selection of Internet newssites in the Zimbabwean diaspora. It argues that the cartoons may constitute the contours ofalternative communicative spaces, in which the cartoonists present arguments about the ongoingZimbabwean crisis. The cartoons may be able to present, in a visual form, issues and processesthat are not so easily covered in verbal journalism. The cartoons thus constitute elements ofjournalistic practice in their own right.
