assisting communities to build resilience in countering violent extremism. Projects aiming to build resilience to violent extremism in Tanzanian communities will not only ensure the country remains at peace, but will also contribute to social-political and economic development of the country. We also want to express our sincere thanks to Search team for trusting us and giving us the opportunity to conduct this baseline evaluation before the implementation of these projects in Tanzania. Likewise, we would like to thank the Search team, enumerators, and partners in Tanga and Arusha for their support during the course of the survey and data collection. The Search team’s contributions and comments during the production of this report were greatly appreciated. Specifically, we would like to thank SFCG Country Director Spes Manirakiza for her commitment and support. Thanks also goes to SFCG Tanzania staff members for their patience and welcome to our team. This truly made the data collection not only possible, but also successful. Special thanks to the Search team in East Africa, particularly Olivia Russell and Adrienne Lemon for being proactive and supporting us over the course of the baseline evaluation. On top of that, we thank Adrienne Lemon, Olivia Russell, and DM&E Officer for Search Tanzania, Castor Kalemera, for their constructive comments and contributions in the production of this report. Likewise, we wish to acknowledge Search partners in Tanga and Arusha who were very helpful. Their role, from the provision of important logistics, and connecting and coordinating a number of interviews with key informants and focus groups was appreciated.

Through education and demonstration, the Institute has taught improved farming practices to approximately 5,000 smallholder farmers in 60 villages in the Iringa Region of Tanzania as part of the Institute’s Companion Village Pro- ject (CVP). Access to credit through an accompanying Mi- crofinance Institute allowed the small farmers to take ad- vantage of the good farming practices. Yields of crops were increased, and the smallholder farmer’s vision of what was possible has been expanded. Based on the observations of government and religious leaders who travel the region, the quality of life in these remote villages has improved.

African Review Vol. 41, No. 1, 2014: 35-70 Conceiving the Tanganyika-Zanzibar Union in the Midst of the Cold War: Internal and International Factors Ethan R. Sanders* Abstract To what extent was international pressure placed on Nyerere and Karume to unify their two states in April 1964? The argument made is that even though Americans were initially very pleased with the outcome of the Union—because they thought it would help stem the spread of communism in the region—this was not a Western-initiated plan forced upon East African leaders. Indeed, the evidence shows that Americans were largely in the dark and in fact very frustrated by their lack of influence on the situation. Instead, the Union merely served as a confluence of African and American interests. The internal factors are inspected by highlighting African concerns over outside interference, worries about domestic stability, and a desire by Karume to consolidate his power.

Remembering the Dark Years (1964–1975) in Contemporary Zanzibar Marie-Aude Fouéré French Institute for Research in Africa (IFRA), Nairobi, Kenya In the islands of Zanzibar (Unguja and Pemba), the memories of violence and repression perpetrated by revolutionaries and the state from 1964 to 1975 have long been banished from the public space. The official narrative of the 1964 Revolution and the first phase of the post-revolutionary periodi developed and propagated by the Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar, through a control over the production, transmission, and circulation of ideas, combined with repressive measures against dissenting voices, led people to keep their memories private. The official injunction calling for silence did not bringabout a forgetting of the past, but rather contributed to the clandestine transmission and reconstruction of fragments of individual, familial, and community memories within private circles.

  • India-Tanzania Bilateral Relations
    INDIA-TANZANIA BILATERAL RELATIONS Tanzania and India have enjoyed traditionally close, friendly and co-operative relations. From the 1960s to the 1980s, the political relationship involved shared commitments to anti-colonialism, non-alignment as well as South-South Cooperation and close cooperation in international fora. The then President of Tanzania (Mwalimu) Dr. Julius Nyerere was held in high esteem in India; he was conferred the Jawaharlal Nehru Award for International Understanding for 1974, and the International Gandhi Peace Prize for 1995. In the post-Cold War period, India and Tanzania both initiated economic reform programmes around the same time alongside developing external relations aimed at broader international political and economic relations, developing international business linkages and inward foreign investment. In recent years, India-Tanzania ties have evolved into a modern and pragmatic relationship with sound political understanding, diversified economic engagement, people to people contacts in the field of education & healthcare, and development partnership in capacity building training, concessional credit lines and grant projects. The High Commission of India in Dar es Salaam has been operating since November 19, 1961 and the Consulate General of India in Zanzibar was set up on October 23, 1974. Recent high-level visits Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi paid a State Visit to Tanzania from 9-10 July 2016. He met the President of Tanzania, Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli for bilateral talks after a ceremonial

  • Popular Christianity, Theology, and Mission Among Tanzanian Lutheran Ministers

Used by permission. All rights reserved. ABSTRACT Shepherds, Servants, and Strangers: Popular Christianity, Theology, and Mission among Tanzanian Lutheran Ministers Elaine Christian This dissertation is an ethnographic description of how pastors (and other ministers) in the Northern Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Tanzania understand and carry out their ministry: How they reflect, mediate, and influence local Christian practice and identities; how theology and theologizing forms an integral part of their social worlds; and how navigating and maintaining relationships with Christian mission partnerships (including “short-term mission”) becomes an important part of their ministry. Drawing from fieldwork conducted between June 2014 and September 2015, I present an account of Christianity that adds to anthropological scholarship by emphasizing the role of theology as a grounded social practice, and considers the increasingly divergent character of Christian mission and its role in modern Tanzanian Christianity.

  • Python Challenge #1 in Python, We Can Use Lists To
    Python Challenge #1 In Python, we can use lists to store related items together in a single place. Two examples are: tanzanian_election_years = [1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015] tanzanian_presidents = [“John Magu uli!, “Ja"aya #i"$ete!, “%en&a'in M"apa!, ( “)li *assan M$inyi!, “Julius +yerere!] 1. On a computer or tablet, write a Python program that prints out each year that Tanzania has had a general election. In Python, you can loop over the items of a list like this: or ite' in list, - do so'ething $ith ite' 2. Using your answer for #1, change it slightly so that it only prints out the years in which Tanzania has had a general election after the year 1999. 3. Sometimes we want to work with two lists at the same time. Say we are given the following list of Tanzanian vice presidents: tanzanian_.ice_presidents = [“/a'ia /uluhu!, “Moha'ed 0hari1 %ilal!, ( “2'ar )li Ju'a!, “3leopa Msuya!, “)1oud Ju'1e!] and we want to match each vice president with the president he or she served with. We can use Python’s zip() function to do this. To illustrate how zip() works, type the following into your Python interpreter (note: don’t type the “>>>”, that is printed by the Python interpreter itself): 444 ruits = [“apple!, “grape!, “1lue1erry!] 444 colors = [“green!, “purple!, “1lue!] 444 zip5 ruits, colors6 [57apple8, 7green86, 57grape8, purple86, 571lue1erry8, 71lue86] Notice how Python matched each of the fruits in our first list with its corresponding color in the second list. The zip() function itself returns a list, which we can use in our own for loops.

  • DOCUMENT Rei Le a Comparative Study of Tae Mass Literacy
    DOCUMENT REi lE ED. 208 200 . CB 030 313 AUTHOR Bhola, H. S. TITLE A Comparative Study of tae Mass Literacy Campaigns of Tanzania and Kenya. PUB DATE Oct 81 NOTE 24p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the African Studies Association (24th, Bloomington, IN, October 21-24, 1981). EDES PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Adult Literacy; Capitalism; Comparative Analysis; *Cultural Context; Democratic Values; Educational Policy; Educational Theories; *Literacy Education; *Political Issues; Polisical Power; Political Socialization; Program Effectiveness; *Public Policy; Socialism; Social Values IDENTIFIEfiS Ideology; *Kenya; *Tanzania ABSTRACt A two-pronged theory underlying literacy campaigns suggests that (1) the prevailing ideology of a society will determine the objectives of the literacy campaign as' yell as the language of justification used by the development Elite in the promotion of adult literacy; and (2) the ideology, as expressed in the political culture of a -society, will influence the technology of a literacy campaign in regard to the strategies used for the articulation of the national commitment; the mobilization Of the masses; and the establishment of organizational structures, the management of incentives for the recruitment of participants and teachers, the development of curricula, and the design of systems for the delivery of instruction* This two-pronged theory can be seen at work in the literacy campaigns conducted in Tanzania and Kenya. where differing .aeoiogies have resulted in differing methods for promoting literacy. Tanzania follows a socialist ideology, and emphasizes literacy as a-tool for the participation of the masses in society in its very successful literacy campaign. Kenya, on the other hand, while following an espoused socialist philosophy, supports individual initiatives and thus uses different programs and incentives, with less success so far, in its less committed literacy campaign.

  • Justice in a One-Party African State: the Tanzanian Experience
    Justice in a One-Party African State: The Tanzanian Experience. A Rejoinder* By Chris M. Peter » Liberalism manifests itself in various ways. To let things slide for the sake of peace and friendship when a person has elearly gone wrong, and to refrain from principled argument because he is an old acquaintance, a fellow townsman, a schoolmate, a elose friend, a beloved one, an old colleague or old subordinate. Or to touch on the matter lightly instead of going into it thoroughly, so as to keep in good terms. The result is that both the organization and the individual are harmed. This is one type of liberalism.« Mao Ts e Tungl Introduction The artiele entitled »Justice in a One-Party African State: The Tanzanian Experience« by Professor Umesh Kumar of Faculty of Law, National University of Lesotho which appeared on 19 Verfassung und Recht in Obersee (1986) p. 255 raises some fundamental issues wh ich call for correction, elarification and comment. Due to the authoritative nature of the journal on Law and Politics in Africa, Asia and Latin America innocent and unsuspecting readers may end up quoting information which is not only incorrect, but also misleading. It is with the intention of avoiding such eventuality that we pro pose to make a short rejoinder to the artiele. Let it be elearly stated right from the outset that we are in no way contesting Professor Kumar's conelusions on democracy in Tanzania and the implication of the one-party state on administration of justice. In our weil considered opinion the very idea of one-party system has its roots in authoritarianism and is hence undemocratic.
