Abstract:The last decade in Tanzania has been one of economic and political liberalization. World Bank and IMF structural adjustment programmes (SAPs) have been adopted and multiparty democracy has been introduced. On the basis of recent fieldwork, the authors of this collective volume trace and analyse the nature of the economic and political system which is in the process of formation, with a particular emphasis on processes of grassroots change. The research reported here was carried out as part of a research programme on 'The political and social context of structural adjustment in sub-Saharan Africa', which began in October 1990 and was based at the Scandinavian Institute of African Studies. Contributions: Merchantisation of production and privatisation of development in post-Ujamaa Tanzania: an introduction, by Peter Gibbon; The meek shall inherit the earth but not the mining rights: the mining industry and accumulation in Tanzania, by Chachage Seithy L. Chachage; When the State withdraws: local developments, politics and liberalisation in Tanzania, by Andrew S.Z. Kiondo.
