Book excerpt: Political and economic development in the rural areas is a major preoccupation of Tanzania. "Ujamaa" is a Tanzanian model of development which aims at introducing social, cultural, political and economic change in the rural areas in which about 93% of the population of Tanzania resides. The aim of this study is to describe "Ujamaa" as a model of development; to analyze critically its implementation problems; to compare Ujamaa model with current models of community development; and to propose certain modifications on the basis of principles and theories of community development. The discussion of Tanzania's historical background provides a framework of the development of "Ujamaa" model. The colonial model of rural transformation denied the peasants' participation in determining the nature of their development, and it was therefore opposed by the peasants. Their opposition to forced agricultural changes gave rise to political awareness among the peasants during the colonial era. At independence Tanzania realised that the colonial model of ruraI transformation had a shortcoming. It attempted to establish political institutions at the village level to enable the peasants to participate in the process of their social, cultural, political and economic development. The creation of the Village Development Committees and the ten-cell house system gave the peasants political power to control their village matters while the role of the government was to facilitate the process of local decision-making. During the post-independence era Tanzania has been preoccupied by the development of "Ujamaa". The introduction of Ujamaa model has great impact on the life of the peasants. The rural population has been reorganized in Ujamaa villages in response to the implementation of rural development policy. In order to effectively facilitate the development of Ujamaa village's political autonomy, the government administration was decentralized in 1972 to provide regional autonomy. A decentralized decision-making structure has been set up; the Regional Development Committee, District Development Commitee and the Village Development Committee. The study has also analyzed the implementation problems of the Ujamaa model in comparison with the Chinese model of development. The study has identified four main problems; ideological orientation, Ujamaa ideology and the concept of development, preparatory organization of the Ujamaa village, and leadership at the village level. Furthermore, the Ujamaa model has been compared with current models of community development. This thesis indicates that both the Ujamaa model and community development models are similar in their goals; that is to encourage the growth of local political autonomy which enables the local people to be responsible for their social, cultural, political and economic development. The study concludes by making a number of recommendations of which two are the most important: (1) The development of local leadership should be emphasized to ensure self-reliance in local human resources, and (2) Politicization and democratization of the peasants should also be emphasized in order to ensure the growth of ujamaa.

Book excerpt: This study is concerned with a particular policy which is important to countries faced with underdevelopment. This policy was initiated in Tanzania in 1967 with the aim of inducing the rural population to "live and work together for the good of all". A decade later, virtually all scattered rural Tanzanians were living in villages and carrying on at least some activity collectively. The objectives are to slow the movement to towns, increase production, permit the introduction of new technology, increase peasant per capita income, reverse the trend towards greater inequality, provide better social services, encourage self-reliance, and reverse the trend towards centralization. One of the major difficulties in implementation was the frequent failure to analyse sufficiently the nature of peasant assessment of costs and benefits to be derived from compliance. The remunerative systems often discourage rather than encourage work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years after the Arusha Declaration, this book sets out to reevaluate one of the most important roots of Tanzania's Ujamaa Socialism: The Ruvuma Development Association. Based on a basic-democratic movement of young politicized farmers, this organization not only brought together up to 18 cooperative villages in southwestern Tanzania, it also became the inspiration for President Nyerere to put his vision of a modern socialist society built on the image of the traditional extended family into a concrete development model on national scale. Led by a participative understanding of empirical research, this explorative study has analyzed the local history of Ujamaa in three case study villages within Ruvuma. Through employing a mix of expert and narrative interviews, as well as group interviews and villager questionnaires, the study sheds new light on the local perceptions of Ujamaa history and communal development, as well as on the interrelations between local and national scale on Tanzania's path of development. It identifies the recent farmers' groups (vikundi) as some of the most important heirs to the Nation's socialist ideology and concludes that in many aspects "the smell of Ujamaa is still there".
