Abstract:This paper analyses the development of social policy in Tanzania from 1961. It establishes two development tendencies: from 1961 to 1967 social policy was urban based and oriented towards influencing economic growth; from 1968 onwards it was oriented to the broader population. The paper shows that the development of social policy in Tanzania has been jointly determined by economics and politics. It concludes that the development of social policy is a complex process in which a combination of factors interact with each other and that the predominance of any one factor in this process varies over time and space.
