Democratization Reversal and Its Impact on Poverty in Tanzania Fifth Phase Government Master Thesis Democratization reversal and its impact on poverty in Tanzania Fifth phase government Author: Lutiger Chamicha Haule Supervisor: Elvis Bisong Tambe Examiner: Yonhyok Choe Term: VT21 Subject: Master Thesis Level: Second Level Course code: 5SK30E Abstract The aim of this thesis is to explore democratic reversal/ backsliding in the United Republic of Tanzania and identify its impact on poverty, with the focus on the fifth phase government which begun in 2015 when the late president John Joseph Pombe Magufuli came to power to March 2021 when he passed on. To explain the relationship between democratic reversal and poverty and whether the former has impact on the later this thesis is built upon several theories namely the Liberal democratic theory, The Bottom Billion, theories on democratic backsliding, and extractive and inclusive Political and Economic Institutions theory. Using Quantitative methodology and relying on the Afrobarometer survey data and freedom house index, I examine the impact of democratic reversal on poverty. Specifically, using descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate analysis the result reveal democratization reversal in Tanzania under the fifth phase government has very minimal impact on poverty hence the relationship between poverty and democratic erosion is not strong. Key words Democracy, Democratization reversal/ backsliding, poverty, Bottom billion, inclusive and extractive political and economic institutions.

The topic is essential as it is based on global concern issues for the betterment and dignity of human lives. International debates and efforts are directed towards democratic erosion in many countries, poverty, and inequality. On the part of Tanzania, the slogan by the 5th phase government was "Work," urging citizens to work hard for their emancipation from poverty. Hence, all other matters considered by the fifth government to stall development efforts and reduce poverty, including democracy, were disregarded. According to World Bank (Cruz et al. l 2015)1, some 900 million people live in extreme poverty today, having less than USD 1.9 per day on which to survive. Majority live just above the poverty line, and that at least a quarter of the developing world's population is in or close to poverty. Despite the economic and sustained growth experienced by many African countries, still, poverty and inequality prevail across the continent, notably in Tanzania. Poverty is defined differently by different authors. For economists, the favorable definition of poverty is one that favors monetary measures by using data from household surveys of income and expenditure. A household classified as poor falls below a defined poverty line; however, not all countries have data to define poverty in monetary terms; therefore, measures of "Dollar a day" variety which currently is US$ 1.90 to reflect the rise in the cost of living are often used to calculate the global and regional aggregates.2 The world Bank adjusts the poverty line over time to reflect the rising cost of living of basic food, closing, and shelter. Regarding the other non-monetary measure of poverty, different dimensions are considered to define poverty, including but not limited to infant mortality, Life expectancy, and literacy, where women are stated to do worse than men in terms of 1 Cited in Burnell et al. l Page 245. 2 Burnell et al. l page 245 1(55) different dimensions. Further, the children of the chronically poor generally remain poor even when they become adults.3 The global policy on sustainable development, the Agenda 2030 adopted on 25th September 2015 by the heads of states at the United Nations, identifies poverty and all its dimensions as the greatest global challenge needing serious attention thus the 17 integrated and indivisible goals with 169 targets seeking by 2030 to end poverty and hunger, realize human rights, gender equality, as women and girl's empowerment and to protect the planet. The Agenda identifies lack of freedom, power, influence, health, and physical safety to mean poverty. The Agenda urges all nations, regardless of their status must be included to end poverty for people to enjoy human rights. To achieve poverty eradication, each state has the responsibility to their citizens and incorporation of rights and gender equality perspective.4 With regards to democracy and poverty, the vision of the Agenda 2030 envisages a world where democracy, good governance, and the rule of law are respected as they are essential for, among other aspects of sustainable development, eradication of poverty and hunger5it is important thus to understand what democracy entails. Democracy is not only about the procedural aspect like multiparty elections (minimalist democracy).6 However, a broad definition is concerned with quality in terms of participation and outcome (Beetham 2004).7 that is to say, a substantive theoretical approach that broadens the concept of democracy to look more to the actual outcome in terms of participation and poverty alleviation rather than limiting democracy to its minimalist and formalist side (Mkandawire 2006).8 Substantive democracy encompasses elected officials, free and fair elections, Inclusive suffrage, right to run for office, freedom of expression, alternative information whereby Citizens have a right to seek out alternative sources of information, and associational 3 Currie B et al. l, 2014 page 86-87 4 Agenda 2030 page 4 5 Ibid 6 Schumpeter 1942 7 Cited in Jonas 2013 page 14.

  • Can President Samia Find a Way to Fulfilling Her Reform Ambitions?
    President Samia, Team JK and Magufuli Camp! By Gado Published by the good folks at The Elephant. The Elephant is a platform for engaging citizens to reflect, re-member and re-envision their society by interrogating the past, the present, to fashion a future. Follow us on Twitter. President Samia, Team JK and Magufuli Camp! By Gado When Samia Suluhu Hassan, the first female president of Tanzania, took office in March following the sudden death of the incumbent, John Pombe Magufuli, a sense of contagious optimism gripped the nation. Viewed by many as “calm, gentle and attentive”, she appeared to embody the possibility of a new beginning after five years of her predecessor’s autocratic and ruthless reign. However, the July arrest and detention of a leading opposition figure, Freeman Mbowe, on what many activists reject as spurious terrorism charges, has shown that the new president has not been able to devise a different way of dealing with the political constraints that besieged her predecessor, and that she is, ironically (given her supposed demeanour), incapable of tolerating political skirmish. The indefinite detention (terrorism charges aren’t bailable in Tanzania) of Mr Mbowe, a principled and unswerving chairperson of the Party of Democracy and Development (CHADEMA), coincided with growing agitation for a new constitution and an independent electoral commission. For the opposition, especially CHADEMA, and everyone else that believes the last five years (2015–2020) were a dark chapter in the country’s history of progressive governance, the death of President Magufuli needs to be seen as a historic window of opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime trigger for enacting fundamental legal and governance reforms, with the intention of preventing a recurrence of the excesses witnessed under the previous regime.

  • Tanzania 2020 Human Rights Report
    TANZANIA 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The United Republic of Tanzania is a multiparty republic consisting of the mainland region and the semiautonomous Zanzibar archipelago, whose main islands are Unguja (Zanzibar Island) and Pemba. The union is headed by a president, who is also the head of government. Its unicameral legislative body is the National Assembly (parliament). Zanzibar, although part of the union, exercises considerable autonomy and has its own government with a president, court system, and legislature. On October 28, the country held its sixth multiparty general election, resulting in the reelection of the union president, John Magufuli, with 85 percent of the vote, and the election of Dr. Hussein Mwinyi with 76 percent of the vote for his first term as president of Zanzibar. International and local election observers and civil society noted widespread election irregularities in the pre-election period, on election day, and in the postelection period which affected the credibility of the electoral process. Prior to the election, opposition candidates were routinely disqualified, harassed, and arrested. There were reports of significant and widespread voting irregularities, internet disruptions, intimidation of journalists, arrests, and violence by security forces both in mainland Tanzania and on Zanzibar resulting in an election that was neither free nor fair. Under the union’s Ministry of Home Affairs, the Tanzanian Police Force has primary responsibility for maintaining law and order. The Field Force Unit, a special police division, has primary responsibility for controlling unlawful demonstrations and riots. The Tanzania People’s Defense Forces include the army, navy, air force, and National Services.
