Kenski Assistant Professor of Government Date PREFACE Interest in this study began with a revolution» In 1964 Zanzibar experienced a revolution which complete­ ly changed her social, economic, and political systems0 My personal interest in that revolution began late in 1964, It was at that time that I was fortunate enough to become a part of an experiment. Ever since President John F, Kennedy established the Peace Corps in 1961, I was attract­ ed to the idea and quickly resolved to join that organiza­ tion as soon as possible. This resolution became a reality in the Fall of 1964 when I was offered and accepted an assignment to Tanganyika, By the time I entered training at Syracuse University, Tanganyika federated with the island state of Zanzibar and became Tanzania, From the day Dr, Fred Burke first lectured us on the politics of Tanzania, I was determined to pursue the study of that area further. The debts incurred in writing this paper are many. One of the largest debts I owe is to Dr, Henry C, Kenski„ This thesis became a reality through the inspiration, encouragement, and innumerable suggestions offered by Dr, Kenski, Many thanks are also due to Dr, Michael P. Sullivan and Dr, Edward J , Williams whose suggestions and insights iv were invaluable to the final form of this paper0 I wish, as well9 to acknowledge the many grammatical suggestions Mr0 Go Leroy Mobley made on this essay0 Last, but by no means least, I owe a debt any married man invariably incurs0 Without the patient understanding and cheerful encouragement of my wife, Karen, the completion of this essay is doubt­ ful 0 Additionally, she spent many hours translating my indecipherable handwriting into type. However, while much of this paper's strengths are directly connected to the contributions of these outstanding friends, the weaknesses are mine and mine alone0 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF TABLES @ <, © » o » o © © % © © © © * © © vi LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS © ©©©©©©©©.©©© vii ABSTRA CT ©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©o©©© v m 1 © INTRODUCTIONS o©©©©©©©©©©©©©©© 1 2 c ZANZIBAR©O OOO 000 0 0 0 00 ©COO 0 0 S Violence in Zanzibar © © © © © © © © © © © © 14 Historical Conclusion© © © © © © © © © © © 16 3 © TANGANYIKA©©©©©©©©©©©©©©o©©© 20 Violence in Tanganyika© © © © © © © © © © © 30 Historical Conclusion© © © © © © © © © © © 35 4 © A HYPOTHESIS©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©o© 39 5c PRECONDITIONS TO REVOLUTION© ©©©©©©©©© 45 The Economy o©©©©©©©©©©©©©©© 45 Landownership © ©o©©©©©©©©©©©© 57 Racial Tension© © © © © © © © © © © © © © © 99 6© AN INTRANSIGENT ELITE© © © © © © © © © © © ©© 115 7© THE ACCELERATOR© © © ©. © © © © © © © © © © © © 129 The Communists o©©©©©©©©©©©.©©© 129 ”The.

Again, these same factors are examined in Tanganyika, CHAPTER i INTRODUCTION Both democracy and oligarchy are based on a sort of justices but they both fall short of absolute justice„ This is the reason why either side turns to sedition if it does not enjoy the share of constitutional rights which accords-with the conception of justice it happens to entertain<r Students have puzzled the causes of revolution since at least Aristotle0 In the pastc however, these studies have been philosophical judgments - on the causes of revolutionso It has only been in relatively recent times that attempts have been made to develop analytical models within which revolutions can be studied® The following study is an attempt to close that much neglected gap which exists between theory and reality® Only too often are theories found which have never been applied to the concrete world of facts; just as histories are often found with no real purpose beyond the recording of man's past® Certainly the value of both of these scholarly endeavors are not questioned® The suggestion 1 Aristotle 6 Politics <, trans ® Ernest Barker (New York; Oxford University Press, 1962), p„ 204® 1 is merely that these two.:lines of scholarship might tie made more meaningful through an application of history to theoryo The success with which the following study bridges this gap can only tie answered by the reader and how well it encourages further research along this same line of investigation0 Chalmers Johnson provides us with our model0 It is within this analytical scheme of revolution that we propose to study a revolution0 Flexibility, adaptability, and universality within a definite structural guideline are features seemingly offered by Johnson9s paradigma While he identifies a distinct pattern through which revolutions can be studied, he offers no sine qua non* His dysfunctional political system is any political system which experiences basic disruptive activity. In theory, the nature of the political system is irrelevant. For these reasons, Johnson9s model seems ideal for a study on revolution in Africa, It might be prudent, however, at this point to define revolution. Revolution, suggests Johnson, is > change effected by the

It is intended to interest the African peoples in the problems of peace and allow them to discuss and debate the issues of militarism and peace for Africa and to suggest solutions. It is also intended to interest leading organizations and people working at the grassroots level in urban and rural areas in problems of militarism and peace education. The first two chapters show hoW, in former times, militarism was brought to Africa by the Europeans through slave trade and colonialism. Chapter 3 shows how militarism continued after independence under neocolonialism in these forms: state terrorism, militarism based on ethnic nationality/conflicts, militarism resulting from "pastoralist conflicts," militarism resulting from cultural and religious conflicts, and militarism based on ideological conflicts. Chapter 4 explores how militarism is still connected to the exploitation and oppression of Africa with the new strategy called "low intensity conflict" or "low intensity war." Chapter 5 considers developing types of peace education and proposed content of peace education.

    SWAHILI FORUM 18 (2011): 37-68 MAZUNGUMZO NA ADAM SHAFI JUU YA UANDISHI WAKE WA RIWAYA ADAM SHAFI & LUTZ DIEGNER Adam Shafi aliyezaliwa mwaka 1940 kisiwani Unguja ni mmojawapo wa waandishi mashuhuri wa riwaya ya Kiswahili. Hadi leo hii riwaya zake nne zimechapishwa, kuanzia Kasri ya Mwinyi Fuad (1978), riwaya iliyotafsiriwa kwa Kifaransa na Kijerumani, na Kuli (1979), hadi Haini (2003), riwaya ya kisiasa juu ya kipindi cha utawala wa kabla na baada ya kifo cha Rais wa kwanza wa Zanzibar, Abeid Karume (1972). Riwaya yake Vuta N'kuvute (1999) iliyoanza kutumika mashuleni tangu miaka kumi iliyopita ilisifiwa na kushangiliwa sana na wataalam, wanafunzi na wasomaji kwa ujumla. Riwaya yake ya kitawasifu Mbali na Nyumbani inayosimulia safari zake za miaka sitini kutoka Unguja hadi Ulaya ipo mitamboni. Hivi sasa mwandishi yumo mbioni kukamilisha muswada wa riwaya yake ya sita iitwayo Mtoto wa Mama. Aliwahi kuwa mwenyekiti wa Umoja wa Waandishi wa Vitabu Tanzania (UWAVITA) na wa Baraza la Maendeleo ya Vitabu Tanzania (BAMVITA). Miongoni mwa tuzo nyingine alizopewa ni Tuzo ya Zeze ya Mfuko wa Utamaduni Tanzania mnamo 2002. Mbali na uandishi, Adam Shafi aliwahi kufanya kazi mbalimbali za uandishi wa habari na kazi za ushirika wa kimataifa. Ni mkalimani na mfasiri kwa Mahakama ya Kimataifa ya Jinai ya Den Hague, Uholanzi, na mashirika ya kutetea haki za binadamu. Amechangia mengi katika kutunga kamusi kadhaa, ikiwemo Kamusi ya Kiswahili ya Karne ya 21 (2011). Anaishi Unguja na Dar es Salaam. Mazungumzo tunayoyatoa hapa yana historia ndefu kidogo.

  • Coup D'etat Events, 1946-2012
    COUP D’ÉTAT EVENTS, 1946-2015 CODEBOOK Monty G. Marshall and Donna Ramsey Marshall Center for Systemic Peace May 11, 2016 Overview: This data list compiles basic descriptive information on all coups d’état occurring in countries reaching a population greater than 500,000 during the period 1946-2015. For purposes of this compilation, a coup d’état is defined as a forceful seizure of executive authority and office by a dissident/opposition faction within the country’s ruling or political elites that results in a substantial change in the executive leadership and the policies of the prior regime (although not necessarily in the nature of regime authority or mode of governance). Social revolutions, victories by oppositional forces in civil wars, and popular uprisings, while they may lead to substantial changes in central authority, are not considered coups d’état. Voluntary transfers of executive authority or transfers of office due to the death or incapacitance of a ruling executive are, likewise, not considered coups d’état. The forcible ouster of a regime accomplished by, or with the crucial support of, invading foreign forces is not here considered a coup d’état. The dataset includes four types of coup events: successful coups, attempted (failed) coups, coup plots, and alleged coup plots. In order for a coup to be considered “successful” effective authority must be exercised by new executive for at least one month. We are confident that the list of successful coups is comprehensive. Our confidence in the comprehensiveness of the coup lists diminishes across the remaining three categories: good coverage (reporting) of attempted coups and more questionable quality of coverage/reporting of coup plots (“discovered” and alleged).

  • Zanzibar: Religion, Politics, and Identity in East Africa
    CAS PO 204: Zanzibar: Religion, Politics, and Identity in East Africa Timothy Longman Summer 2013 M-R 10-12, plus field trips May 27-July 3 Email: [email protected] The islands of Zanzibar have been a crossroads of African, Persian, Arab, Indian, and European cultures for two millenniums, making them a unique setting in which to explore issues of religion, ethnicity, race, gender, class, and politics in East Africa. From about 1000 A.D., the first permanent settlers began to arrive from the African mainland, and they mixed with Arab, Persian, and Indian traders who had used Zanzibar as a port for centuries. Zanzibar was linked early into the Muslim world, with the first mosque in the southern hemisphere was built in there in 1107. Zanzibar’s two main islands of Unguja and Pemba ultimately developed a plantation economy, with slaves imported from the mainland growing cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, and other spices. Zanzibar’s strategic and economic importance made it a coveted prize, as it was alternately controlled by the Portuguese, Omani, and British empires. Zanzibar became the launching site for H.M. Stanley and other explorers, the center for many missionary groups, and an important base for European colonial expansion into East Africa. This course explores the role of Zanzibar as a gateway between East Africa and the Middle East, South Asia, and Europe and the fascinating legacy of social diversity left by the many different cultures that have passed through the islands. We study the contrast between the historical development of mainland East Africa and the Swahili coastal communities that range from Mozambique to Somalia and the role of Zanzibar in the expansion of colonialism into East Africa.

Colonialism and Economic Development in Africa Leander Heldring and James A. Robinson NBER Working Paper No. 18566 November 2012 JEL No. N37,N47,O55 ABSTRACT In this paper we evaluate the impact of colonialism on development in Sub-Saharan Africa. In the world context, colonialism had very heterogeneous effects, operating through many mechanisms, sometimes encouraging development sometimes retarding it. In the African case, however, this heterogeneity is muted, making an assessment of the average effect more interesting.

  • He Embarked on a Strong Move to Develop Uganda Very Quickly After Independence. His Achievements Were So Good That the President
    SPEECH BY MAMA MIRIA OBOTE IN HONOUR OF THE FOUNDING FATHERS OF THE EAST AFRICAN COMMUNITY, AT ARUSHA TANZANIA 31ST MAY2015. Introduction We are delighted, humbled and honoured, to stand before this august EAL Assembly representing our Founding Fathers of the East African Community, comrades Dr.Julius Kambarage Nyerere, Mzee J omo Kenyatta and Apollo Milton Obote. As far as the Obotes are concerned we are true East Africans because of the long experience of living, studying and working in East Africa. Dr. Obote lived and worked in Kenya in the 19 50s when the Mau Mau struggle was taking place and had the golden opportunity of meeting the legendary freedom fighter, Dedan Kimathi, When political activities were banned in Kenya, the focus shifted to social clubs and Dr. Obote went on to head the Kaloleni Social Club. Later the ban on political activities was lifted and Dr. Obote together with other Kenyan nationalists went ahead to found K.A.U, the Kenyan African Union. Dr. Obote was even elected Chairperson of the new party and he led the successful campaigns for the late Tom Mboya's entry into to the L.E.G.C.0. I, myself am equally a product of the East African spirit and Kenya. My late father Blasio Kalule was an employee of the Kenya-Uganda Railway and we lived in Nairobi, Kenya, for a while.
