This study has been prepared within the context of the UNUAVIDER project of New Models of Public Goods Provision and Financing in Developing Countries. The development of public provision of public/merit goods (health, education, water and sanitation) has gone through various stages. Initially, the concept of market failure led the state to organize the provision of public goods. Then, evidence of widespread government failure in the delivery and funding of public services caused a turn-about and led to the introduction of a system of provision inspired by market principles. However, the market failure problems of the neoliberal model are also quite pervasive. These failures would eventually lead, even more than in the state-led model, to policy reversals. Consequently, this UNUAVIDER project endeavours to find new models of provision and financing where, hopefully, a better balance between provision by the state and the market, as well as by households and other agents, could be reached. In this study Professor Swantz describes the initial attempts of providing social services undertaken by the Tanzanian government during the early 1970s. Since then, severe economic imbalances, and the policies attempting to redress them, affected the quality and sustainability of public provision of key social services. More recently, the decentralization of the Tanzanian state is further affecting social service provision through the devolution of financial and managerial responsibilities to lower (ward and village) levels of government. At the same time, a new participatory (bottom-up) approach is being implemented including community self-assessment of basic needs and capabilities. Based on extensive field work in southern Tanzania, the author presents some of the effects that these two processes, decentralization combined with community participation, have on the system of social service provision. The author also presents some insights on the possible way ahead in this field. I trust this paper will help the academic community, donors, policy makers and general public to further understand one crucial aspect of poverty in the developing world. Giovanni Andrea Cornia UNUAVIDER Director September 1997 VII ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I gratefully acknowledge the opportunity to write this study as a visiting scholar at UNUAVIDER. I thank Professor Giovanni Andrea Cornia, the Director of UNUAVIDER, for providing a productive research environment and support. I am especially indebted to Professor Germano Mwabu, Co-director of the project on New Models of Public Goods Provision and Financing in Developing Countries, and the project members for their assistance and encouragement. The fieldwork for the study was done as part of the rural integrated project support programme (RIPS) in Mtwara and Lindi regions. The work of the RIPS staff and the regional headquarters have provided the basis for the study. I also thank FINNAGRO, with whom I have been employed as a senior sociologist. FINNAGRO has been funded by the Department of International Development Cooperation of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland. Vlll ABSTRACT The first part of the paper

  • Development and Progress As Historical Phenomena in Tanzania: “Maendeleo? We Had That in the Past”
    Development and Progress as Historical Phenomena in Tanzania: “Maendeleo? We Had That in the Past” Robert M. Ahearne Abstract: Academic discussions of development continue to grow, yet critical engagements with communities affected by development interventions remain limited. Drawing from life history interviews conducted in southern Tanzania, this article details the varied experiences of development interventions among older people and how these affect broader understandings of progress. Many juxtapose their negative views of ujamaa villagization with more positive recollections of previous interventions (especially the Groundnut Scheme), which are infused with what is described here as “development nostalgia.” Perceptions of the past clearly inform the social, political, and economic aspirations forwarded today, with the richness of the constructed narratives adding further nuance to existing depictions of Tanzanian historiography. Much of the academic work on the subject of development tends to focus on the present and the future, despite the fact that experiences from the past are crucial in shaping localized understandings of progress (Crewe & Harrison 1998). Drawing from in-depth fieldwork in southern Tanzania, this article aims to address a point raised twenty years ago by Jonathan Crush: that “we still do not know enough about the global, regional and especially local historical geography of development” (1995:8–9). Conventional histories of Tanzania, and of Tanzanian development, tend to offer teleological versions of the past, reflecting Kelly Askew’s (2006) threefold division of the presocialist, socialist, and postsocialist eras in recent Tanzanian history. Periodizations of history, of course, are “utterly relative constructs, [which] reflect their own sense of the ‘style’ of the historical past” (Toohey 2003:10).

This was the fifth Census after the Union of Tanganyika and Zanzibar in 1964. Other censuses were carried out in 1967, 1978, 1988 and 2002. The 2012 PHC, like previous censuses, will contribute to the improvement of quality of life of Tanzanians through the provision of current and reliable data for policy formulation, development planning and service delivery as well as for monitoring and evaluating national and international development frameworks. The 2012 PHC is unique as the collected information will be used in monitoring and evaluating the Development Vision 2025 for Tanzania Mainland and Zanzibar Development Vision 2020, Five Year Development Plan 2011/12–2015/16, National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP) commonly known as MKUKUTA and Zanzibar Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (ZSGRP) commonly known as MKUZA. The Census will also provide information for the evaluation of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2015. The Poverty Monitoring Master Plan, which is the monitoring tool for NSGRP and ZSGRP, mapped out core indicators for poverty monitoring against the sequence of surveys, with the 2012 PHC being one of them. Several of these core indicators for poverty monitoring are measured directly from the 2012 PHC.
