This book describes the history and challenges facing Tanzania through the voices and memories of Tanzanians and through their visions and ideas about the challenges Tanzania faces today. It is a story of setbacks and disappointments, but also of pride. Among those interviewed are leading politicians, activists and researchers, but the book also includes ordinary everyday Tanzanians-farmers, workers, grandfathers and grandmothers, active and retired civil servants.The statements are used thematically in chapters focusing on the various challenges that have faced Tanzania: from insufficient focus on agriculture to the menace of corruption; from socialism to capitalism and from the role of the family to the importance of religion. There is a strong focus on the limitation of independence. Tanzania is independent, but there is no true independence in a globalized world.Knud, Vilby is the author of 'Independent? Tanzania's Challenges Since Uhuru: A Second-Generation Nation in a Globalized World' with ISBN 9789171065902 and ISBN 9171065903.
