M onique A. B edasse . Jah Kingdom
Monique A. Bedasse’s book, Jah Kingdom: Rastafarians, Tanzania, and Pan-Africanism in the Age of Decolonization, presents a study of a very small group of people whose actions represent a very large leap of faith with huge implications for global history. Bedasse recounts the history of roughly twenty-four Rastafarians who repatriated to the East African nation of Tanzania in the 1980s. Using archives, private documents, and oral history intervie…
Mtunya
Famine, the acute lack of food for a population which leads to starvation, can be caused both by a failure in production and by structural inequalities in entitlements to that food which is available. In the Dodoma Region of central Tanzania the people called Wagogo name a famine that struck between 1917 and 1920 the Mtunya — 'The Scramble '. The Mtunya was the most deadly of the many famines that have visited Ugogo. The hardships that culminated…
The Colonial Epoch in Africa
The Dar es Salaam School of African History
The Dar es Salaam School of African History refers to the work of a group of historians based at what became the University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania. Led initially by Terrance O. Ranger, the scholars of the History Department there in the late 1960s focused on researching and writing a new history for a newly independent nation. The works produced focused on the idea of Africans making their own history and on the rise of anticolonial nationa…

Priya Lal. African Socialism in Postcolonial Tanzania
Ujamaa—the political philosophy developed by Julius Nyerere to guide the East African nation of Tanzania along a socialist path in the 1960s and 1970s—has long divided scholars into roughly two camps. Ujamaa (which means familyhood in Kiswahili, the Tanzanian national language) emphasized rural development over urbanization, nationalization of the economy, and self-reliance (kujitegemea). It eventually resulted in a massive effort to concentrate …

African American Environmental Thought
American intellectual thought has long provided a touchstone for national politics and civil rights, but, as Kimberly Smith reveals, it also has much to say about our relationship to nature. In this first single-authored book to link American and environmental studies, Smith uncovers a rich tradition stretching from the abolition movement through the Harlem Renaissance, demonstrating that black Americans have been far from indifferent to environm…

James Bryce
That the Constitution of the United States served as a model for the Australian federation is well established, and is in any case evident from the resemblance of federal institutions between the two countries. Yet substantial differences remain, largely through the determination of the Australian founders to retain the parliamentary heritage of the Westminster system of government. It has been pointed out that fames Bryce's lavish expositions of…

Gender and Famine in Central Tanzania
During the colonial era, women in Ugogo in central Tanzania, like most of Africa, became increasingly marginalized as producers in a rural economy. A colonially imposed sexual division of labor saw men forced into a cash economy while women were officially regulated to subordinate subsistence activities. Women became the victims of a version of the “cult of domesticity” that limited their ability to control resources both within and outside the h…

Mtunya
In the Dodoma Region of central Tanzania the people called Wagogo name a famine that struck between 1917 and 1920 the Mtunya —‘The Scramble’. This famine came after both German and British miliary requisitions had drained the arid region of men, cattle and food. The famine, which killed 30,000 of the region's 150,000 people, is more than just a good example of what John Iliffe has called ‘conjunctural poverty’. The Mtunya and the response to it b…

Famine, Impoverishment and the Creation of a Labor Reserve in Central Tanzania
An often under-recognized response to drought by members of pastoral and mixed farming communities in Africa is semi-regular migration in search of wage employment. Among the Gogo of the Dodoma and Singida Regions of central Tanzania this strategy has increasingly, since the 1940s, been the response of individuals to a cycle of drought, loss of livestock, and impoverishment. Before World War II hardly any people left Ugogo for wage labor; by 1955…

Big Slavery
The Creation of Identity
Many colonial regimes appropriate traditional symbols of power to enhance authority. In many cases this appropriation results in the hardening of more transitory political divisions among subject people into ethnic, national, or tribal ones. Colonialism often, in essence, creates different identities for subject peoples. For example, the East India Company (E.I.C.) and royal colonial government in India manipulated caste and religion to carry out…
