The government is led by President Benjamin Mkapa of the Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) party. Zanzibar has its own government for internal affairs (see Zanzibar: Political background). Historical background Early Arab influence— Although indigenous scholars are beginning to formulate a Tanzanian “history of itself”, the country’s early history has long been dominated by the writings and perceptions of foreigners. Arab traders were an early influence, establishing coastal settlements in the tenth century and 800 years later penetrating the interior as far as Lake Tanganyika, carrying with them Arab culture, Islamic beliefs and the Swahili language. Contacts with the outside world gradually increased through Zanzibar, especially after an Omani sultan, Sayyid Said, moved his capital from Muscat to the island in 1840. —gives way to German French, US, German and British interests competed for trade in the area, but domination the German East Africa Company proved particularly adept at persuading unsuspecting chiefs to sign “treaties of friendship”, and in 1885 the company’s sphere of influence—stretching from the coast of Zanzibar to the central states of Ruanda and Urundi—was declared a protectorate of the German state. Comparatively small numbers of German settlers followed—unlike Kenya’s fertile highlands, much of the country was deemed unsuitable for European farmers to colonise—but there was significant resistance to imperial rule. Indeed, the multi-ethnic Maji Maji rebellion, which engulfed much of the south of the

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT With independence in 1961, the British system of Parliamentary government, incorporating the principle of responsible government, was formally adopted in Tanzania. But within only one year that system was discarded first, by adopting a Republican Constitution with an executive President in 1962, and then by adopting a one-party state system of government in 1965. The one-party system reached the height of prominence through the concept of "Party Supremacy", and dominated constitutional practice for a whole generation before giving way to demands for greater freedom and democracy through competitive politics in 1992. Throughout this time, however, the preambles to successive constitutions proclaimed that the government in Tanzania was responsible to a freely elected Parliament representative of the people.

Diese Umwälzungen beeinflussen die Entwicklung Sansibars bis heute und wer- den in zahlreichen akademischen, journalistischen und literarischen Publi- kationen diskutiert und interpretiert. Trotz dieser Thematisierung ist die ‘Klärung’ der Erinnerungen der Revolution in Sansibar bisher nicht gelun- gen: Widerstreitende memories of revolution blockieren bis heute die Heraus- bildung eines historischen Konsenses im kollektiven Gedächtnis Sansibars.
