  • Informal Economy and Development
    INFORMAL ECONOMY AND DEVELOPMENT The case of the dairy sector in Mwanza, Tanzania: Present status and possible pro-poor interventions Kleoniki Alexopoulou (3614999) Supervisor: Henk Huisman International Development Studies Utrecht University November 2011 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the guidance and the remarks of my supervisor in International Development Studies, Prof. Henk Huisman. I am also grateful for the material support of SNV Tanzania – Lake Zone Portfolio during my fieldwork and my cooperation with Mr. Rinus Van Klinken and Mr. John Mlay. I would also like to thank my research assistant Maguzu Lujani and my translator Juvenary Machele, without whom the research would be impossible. I owe my deepest gratitude to my father Dimitris Alexopoulos, my mother Naja Giannakitsa and the rest of my family, who supported me both economically and psychologically throughout my studies. Last but not least, I am indebted to my friends Kostadis Papaioannou and Evangelos Vrochidis, who accommodated me in Utrecht during the writing of my thesis. [2] Executive summary Over the last decades, the so-called “informal” economy has been constantly under examination by development researchers and policy makers. The increase of the informal sector in the developing and transition countries since the period of liberalisation reforms in the decade of 1980s-1990s and the “hidden potential” that informal economy seems to demonstrate, has raised the interest of development thinkers and agents worldwide. Certainly, there are conflicting theoretical approaches on the causes, the impact and the nature of the informal sector and subsequently on the possible intervention policies (La Porta and Schleifer, 2008).
