Download or read book The Tanzanian Economy 1920 1985 written by Werner Biermann and published by Lit Verlag. This book was released on 1998 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the fate typical of most African states in the twentieth century. Efforts under colonial rule after 1945 focused on enlarged surplus extraction during that interwar period. European colonial powers lacked administrative resources, hence the economic failure of modernization, the editor asserts. The war experience contributed to the African peoples' resistance to an alien political system that neither delivered the economic goods nor provided social self-esteem in Tanzania.

Download or read book Tanzania written by Andrew Coulson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-07-25 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tanzania in the 1970s was at the forefront of policy innovation. Near-universal primary education, access to health services and supplies of clean water subsequently became mainstream ambitions in Africa and elsewhere. But its policies towards agricultural and industrial production failed and left the country in a particularly weak position when it faced the demands of structural adjustment in the 1980s. This book, originally published in 1982, has been reissued with a new introduction which brings its themes up to the present, when income from gold mining and natural gas is making Tanzania one of the most dynamic economies in Africa today. The author, first an economic civil servant in Tanzania, later an academic at the University of Dar es Salaam, was in a unique position to write it, drawing on his own experiences as well as the plethora of ideas and debates in Dar es Salaam in the 1970s. The book has stood the test of time not only because of the range of material it covers but more profoundly because of the approach it takes to the work of Tanzania's founding president, Julius Nyerere - sympathetic to his ideas, deeply critical of failures in implementation. 25 short easily-read chapters take the story of Tanzania from pre-colonial times to the present, and show how Nyerere was hemmed in by what he inherited from the German and British colonialists who ran the country up to Independence in 1961. It provides an invaluable introduction to anyone coming to the country for the first time, and offers a profound assessment of the theoretical debates that have made Tanzania of such interest to students of development.
Download or read book Third World Development Experience written by S. Chandrasekhar and published by Daya Books. This book was released on 1990 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals, extensively with the underdeveloped African State of Tanzania. It is predominantly an agricultural economy, mostly a subsistence one. The author has delved deep into the problems confronted by Tanzania in its developmental process. The development problems of Tanzania are extremely heterogeneous varying widely, from one region to another. The author has made a reference of the physical impediments in the way of successful implementation of the various developmental schemes. An assessment of the implementation of the policy particularly with regard to the agricultural development aspects of it has been made. The dismal performance of agriculture has been attributed to the formulation of too many policies, along with many other factors. A special reference has been made of the Ujamaa policy. The unrelenting intervention of the government in all activities including agriculture in some form of public enterprise which are known as the parastatals and lack of suitable incentives to participate in the production processes are also held responsible for the sorry state of agriculture. The resource constraints, the increasing trade gap, growing eternal debt, increasing trade gap, falling investment in agriculture and decreased investment in infrastructure, rapid inflation are only some hurdles which are to be surmounted to achieve the final goal. The book will be very useful to the scholars and researchers doing research work on the economics of third world countries. It will also help the policy makers and provide comprehensive study material to a layman. Contents Chapter 1: Financing Development in Tanzania-The Inflation Context; Chapter 2: Employment and Wages in Tanzanian Parastatals; Chapter 3: Performance of the Manufacturing Enterprises; Chapter 4: Conclusion.
Download or read book Capital in the Twenty First Century written by Thomas Piketty and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-14 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the grand dynamics that drive the accumulation and distribution of capital? Questions about the long-term evolution of inequality, the concentration of wealth, and the prospects for economic growth lie at the heart of political economy. But satisfactory answers have been hard to find for lack of adequate data and clear guiding theories. In this work the author analyzes a unique collection of data from twenty countries, ranging as far back as the eighteenth century, to uncover key economic and social patterns. His findings transform debate and set the agenda for the next generation of thought about wealth and inequality. He shows that modern economic growth and the diffusion of knowledge have allowed us to avoid inequalities on the apocalyptic scale predicted by Karl Marx. But we have not modified the deep structures of capital and inequality as much as we thought in the optimistic decades following World War II. The main driver of inequality--the tendency of returns on capital to exceed the rate of economic growth--today threatens to generate extreme inequalities that stir discontent and undermine democratic values if political action is not taken. But economic trends are not acts of God. Political action has curbed dangerous inequalities in the past, the author says, and may do so again. This original work reorients our understanding of economic history and confronts us with sobering lessons for today.

Download or read book Rural Transformations and Agro Food Systems written by Ben M. McKay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-05 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The economic and political rise of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) and Middle-Income Countries (MICs) have important implications for global agrarian transformation.These emerging economies are undergoing profound changes as key sites of the production, circulation, and consumption of agricultural commodities; hosts to abundant cheap labour and natural resources; and home to growing numbers of both poor but also, increasingly, affluent consumers. Separately and together these countries are shaping international development agendas both as partners in and potential alternatives to the development paradigms promoted by the established hubs of global capital in the North Atlantic and by dominant international financial institutions. Collectively, the chapters in this book show the significance of BRICS countries in reshaping agro-food systems at the national and regional level as well as their global significance. As they export their own farming and production systems across different contexts, though, the outcomes are contingent and success is not assured. At the same time, BRICS may represent a continuation rather than an alternative to the development paradigms of the Global North. The chapters were originally published in a special issue of Third World Thematics: A TWQ Journal.
