Changes in Employment by Gender and Business Operation in Newly Privatized Companies in Tanzania
Although a body of research is now available on privatization in Africa, little has been published on the changes in employment by gender or of changes in business organization in the newly privatized enterprises. In all sub-Saharan African countries where privatization has occurred, employment levels have fallen from pre-privatization levels. In general, government policy in the socialist countries was to treat women equally with men in employme…
The business environment in Tanzania after socialism
In the process of structural adjustment and economic liberalisation, former strong socialist sub-Saharan African countries are experiencing additional challenges in their efforts to develop the private sector, compared to those that had relatively market oriented economies. Tanzania is known for its past strong socialist orientation. This article assesses the country's effort to reform the banking system, state owned enterprises, taxation system …
The Success of Newly Privatized Companies
Much has been written about the benefits of privatization; however, in countries with low per capita incomes and with slow or no growth recently, most local residents do not have the capital or expertise needed to acquire parastatals. Who then is buying enterprises formerly owned by government? This pilot study of a sample of agro-industrial enterprises in Tanzania gives some insight into the purchasers and managers of newly privatized firms, the…

tal organizations (NGOs) which gave the funds to their member clients as grants. This effort has proved not to be self-sustaining, so NGOs are turning to loans for income-generating activities. Also donors are turning to government organizations to administer loan funds, especially for resource poor rural and urban women. Funds have been allocated for Tanzanian women through both types of organizations. This article summarizes Tanzanian experienc…

Constraints to Women and Development in Africa
Although it has been estimated that women produce more than 60 per cent of the food crops in many African countries, less than one in five has found employment in wage-earning occupations as development has occurred. Why has this happened? Our hypothesis is that there are two primary constraints on their improved economic status in addition to tradition and culture, namely: lack of access to education and to capital. Access to land and to informa…
Beyond Ujamaa in Tanzania
Allocation of Credit to Ujamaa Villages in Tanzania and Small Farms in Zambia
As agricultural production shifts from traditional methods (where land and labor are the major inputs and seed often is saved by the farmer) to more modern methods in which more of the inputs are produced off the farm, farmers' savings in Third World countries may be insufficient to purchase the needed inputs for cash. Thus credit may have to be provided from some source. Many governments have established agricultural development banks to increas…

Strategies for Increasing Rice Production in Sierra Leone
Sierra Leone is one of the more important rice-producing and consuming countries in West Africa. Sierra Leone was an exporter of rice in the early 1950's. Since 1955 the agricultural sector has not been able to meet domestic needs; Imports from 1960 to 1970 averaged $2.7 million annually (USDA 1968, p. 18). The need to import rice has continued in spite of governmental efforts to increase domestic production through a price-support program, ferti…

Agricultural Development in the Ivory Coast and Ghana
Situated side by side on the west coast of Africa, of similar size, and having similar national incomes per capita and capacity for development at independence, Ghana and the Ivory Coast present marked contrasts in the development of both agriculture and industry.1 Ghanaian politicians led the African independence movement, with Ghana receiving independence in 1957. The Ivory Coast was granted independence in 1960 with little indigenous effort. I…
They Said it Couldn't be Done' Two Agricultural Development Projects in Kenya
When we visited Kenya in 1962 independence had been announced but was still six months away. Lack of faith by resident Europeans and some of the Asian community in an African government had resulted in cessation of investments by both communities; the economy, which had been so vigorous earlier, had ground to virtual stagnation with a resulting substantial increase in unemployment, uncertainty, and political instability. In addition, the Africans…
