Download or read book Nkrumah s Ghana and East Africa written by Opoku Agyeman and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book reinforces the verdict that Pan-Africanism in the Nkrumah era represented the most important indigenous political force on the African continent - the most significant single African attempt to affect in an important way the speed and direction of social change in Africa. The core period in this study, 1957-1966, represents the most potent phase in the history of this redemptive movement in Africa. Nkrumah's efforts at influence could not, and did not, take the same form in the three East African countries. In every case, political-ideological contextual factors dictated the pattern of input. In Tanzania, where Nyerere's calculated and studied "evolutionism" was the main concern, the main line of attack was geared to pushing the Tanzanian leader and his people toward Nkrumah's "immediatist" continental integration formula.

Download or read book African Socialism in Postcolonial Tanzania written by Priya Lal and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-12 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on a wide range of oral and written sources, this book tells the story of Tanzania's socialist experiment: the ujamaa villagization initiative of 1967-75. Inaugurated shortly after independence, ujamaa ('familyhood' in Swahili) both invoked established socialist themes and departed from the existing global repertoire of development policy, seeking to reorganize the Tanzanian countryside into communal villages to achieve national development. Priya Lal investigates how Tanzanian leaders and rural people creatively envisioned ujamaa and documents how villagization unfolded on the ground, without affixing the project to a trajectory of inevitable failure. By forging an empirically rich and conceptually nuanced account of ujamaa, African Socialism in Postcolonial Tanzania restores a sense of possibility and process to the early years of African independence, refines prevailing theories of nation building and development, and expands our understanding of the 1960s and 70s world.

Download or read book Visions of African Unity written by Matteo Grilli and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays analyzes different iterations of African unity, exploring the political and cultural visions that informed projects aimed at African unification. It explores the cultural, economic and non-state aspects of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) as the principal institution dedicated to the cooperation of African states, from its establishment in 1963 to its transformation into the African Union (AU) in 2000, as well as how ideas of African unity shaped the Cold War and African liberation struggles. Bringing together contributors from a diverse range of disciplinary backgrounds across Africa, Europe and the US, this book investigates the ideological origins and historiography of Pan-African and unification projects, and considers how African intellectuals, leaders and populations engaged with these ideas.
Download or read book Jah Kingdom written by Monique A. Bedasse and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-08-11 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its beginnings in 1930s Jamaica, the Rastafarian movement has become a global presence. While the existing studies of the Rastafarian movement have primarily focused on its cultural expression through reggae music, art, and iconography, Monique A. Bedasse argues that repatriation to Africa represents the most important vehicle of Rastafari's international growth. Shifting the scholarship on repatriation from Ethiopia to Tanzania, Bedasse foregrounds Rastafari's enduring connection to black radical politics and establishes Tanzania as a critical site to explore gender, religion, race, citizenship, socialism, and nation. Beyond her engagement with how the Rastafarian idea of Africa translated into a lived reality, she demonstrates how Tanzanian state and nonstate actors not only validated the Rastafarian idea of diaspora but were also crucial to defining the parameters of Pan-Africanism. Based on previously undiscovered oral and written sources from Tanzania, Jamaica, England, the United States, and Trinidad, Bedasse uncovers a vast and varied transnational network--including Julius Nyerere, Michael Manley, and C. L. R James--revealing Rastafari's entrenchment in the making of Pan-Africanism in the postindependence period.
Download or read book The East African Community written by Ms.Catherine McAuliffe and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2012-11-14 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The East African Community (EAC) has been among the fastest growing regions in sub-Saharan Africa in the past decade or so. Nonetheless, the recent growth path will not be enough to achieve middle-income status and substantial poverty reduction by the end of the decade—the ambition of most countries in the region. This paper builds on methodologies established in the growth literature to identify a group of countries that achieved growth accelerations and sustained growth to use as benchmarks to evaluate the prospects, and potential constraints, for EAC countries to translate their recent growth upturn into sustained high growth. We find that EAC countries compare favorably to the group of sustained growth countries—macroeconomic and government stability, favorable business climate, and strong institutions—but important differences remain. EAC countries have a smaller share of exports, lower degree of financial deepening, lower levels of domestic savings, higher reliance on donor aid, and limited physical infrastructure and human capital. Policy choices to address some of these shortcomings could make a difference in whether the EAC follows the path of sustained growth or follows other countries where growth upturns later fizzled out.
Download or read book Region Building in Africa written by Daniel H. Levine and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-19 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark book is the first of its kind to assess the challenges of African region-building and regional integration across all five African sub-regions and more than five decades of experience, considering both political and economic aspects. Leading scholars and practitioners come together to analyze a range of entwined topics, including: the theoretical underpinnings that have informed Africa's regional integration trajectory; the political economy of integration, including the sources of different 'waves' of integration in pan-Africanism and the reaction to neo-liberal economic pressures; the complexities of integration in a context of weak states and the informal regionalization that often occurs in 'borderlands'; the increasing salience of Africa's relationships with rising extra-regional economic powers, including China and India; and comparative lessons from non-African regional blocs, including the EU, ASEAN, and the Southern Common Market. A core argument of this book, running through all chapters, is that region-building must be recognized as a political project as much as if not more than an economic one; successful region-building in Africa will need to include the complex political tasks of strengthening state capacity (including states' capacity as 'developmental states' that can actively engage in economic planning), resolving long-standing conflicts over resources and political dominance, improving democratic governance, and developing trans-national political structures that are legitimate and inclusive.
Download or read book Tanzania s Human Revolution written by James N. Karioki and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1979 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Tanzania, this book argues, the centrality of mankind is not a mere abstract ideal; it is embedded in the philosophy, policies, and programs of the nation. A major role of Tanzania's political leaders, especially Julius Nyerere, is to guarantee that the society and the state maintain a humane commitment. Tanzania's Human Revolution concludes that developments in this young African nation whether social, political, or economic--are understandable only in the context of its value system. The author thus takes issue with previous studies, particularly those focusing on mechanics and processes while overlooking a pervasive humanism. Tanzania's brand of democratic socialism emphasizes cooperative agricultural villages and mass education. Although foreign investments are permitted in Tanzania in a limited way, urbanization and heavy industry are discouraged until the achievement of Self-Reliance, the watchword of the country's one party, the Tanganyika African National Union. Schooling combines the practical with the liberal, and graduates of colleges or terminal secondary schools are required to work for two years in the rural areas. Political decisions often benefit from village and neighborhood deliberations before becoming regional and national policies. Tanzanian citizenship is open to all races, and both English and Kiswahili are official languages. About one-third of the population is Christian, the rest espousing either Islam or one of the indigenous religions. Nyerere epitomizes Tanzania's heterogeneity; the son of a tribal chief, he holds an Edinburgh MA, is a converted Roman Catholic, and takes pride in being a lifelong patriot. By its steadfast opposition to all forms of inhumanity including racism--together with its correct yet independent relations with all other countries including the United States and China--Tanzania has become a moral force in Africa and the world.
