Comments Policy

All contributors should follow the basic principles of a productive dialogue: communicate their perspective, ask, comment, respond,and share information and knowledge, but do all this with a positive approach.


The Zambian Economist does not censor comments based on political or ideological point of view. We only delete those comments that are abusive, off-topic, use excessive foul language, or include ad hominem attacks.

This is a friendly website. However, if you feel compelled to comment 'anonymously', you are strongly encouraged to state your location so that other commentators/readers do not confuse your comments with other individuals also commenting anonymously. Of course, the easiest way is simply to adopt a unique nickname.
