Auf Initiative der Weltbank wurden in verschiedenen afrikanischen Ländern National Capacity Asessment Teams gebildet, um die Notwendigkeiten für eine verbesserte Kapazität in den verschiedenen gesellschaftlichen Bereichen zu identifizieren. Das tansanische Team unterschied vier Bereiche - öffentlicher Sektor, privater Sektor, Zivilgesellschaft und Bildungssystem - und trug seine Ergebnisse auf einem Workshop zusammen (und dokumentierte sie mit der vorliegenden Veröffentlichung). Die sieben Beiträge betreffen das Management von Wirtschaft und Finanzen, den öffentlichen Dienst, die lokale und regionale Verwaltung, den privaten Sektor sowie mit zwei Beiträgen den Bildungs- und Ausbildungssektor. Ein einführender Beitrag fasst die Probleme des Capacity Building zusammen und gibt an, wo die ausländischen Geber Beiträge leisten könnten. (DÜI-Sbd)

The paper looks at the African economy in the past two decades in terms of domestic categories like economic growth, agricultural development, investment, government finance and political instability, and examines the strategies which have been pursued in agricultural and industrial development. It is found that these strategies have not contributed to the liquidation of dependence on the industrialised countries of the North. (DSE)

The paper argues that the slow growth of industrial output in the 1970s was aggravated by exchange away from capital goods imports for capacity utilization. This aspect of misallocation of resources is explained in terms of the role of foreign finance on the one hand and the weak link between macro-level and micro-level planning on the other. (DSE)

Den Chancen, Risiken und Perspektiven der wirtschaftlichen Zusammenarbeit und Integration in Ostafrika war im März 2001 in Seminar in Arusha gewidmet, dass das EAC-Sekretariat u.a. mit dem Hamburger Welt-Wirtschafts-Archiv (HWWA) ausrichtete. Die Schrift dokumentiert die neun Beiträge des Seminars, von denen drei Lehren der EU-Integration bzw. der ECOWAS für Ostafrika fruchtbar zu machen versuchen. Das Themenspektrum reicht im Übrigen von theoretischen Überlegungen zu regionaler Kooperation über die Bilanz bisheriger ostafrikanischer Integrationsbemühungen bis zu Vorschlägen, die wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Unterschiede in den EAC-Ländern zu reduzieren sowie bis zu den Wirkungen der Globalisierung auf die Region.

The purpose of this study is to examine how and to what extent the interaction between technology imports and efforts in local technological development has contributed to enhancing the process of technological learning and self-reliance in Tanzania's manufacturing sector. The study is based on a sample of 23 manufacturing enterprises selected from five different industries

The eleven papers were presented at the National Workshop on Economic Stabilization Policies in Tanzania, held on 20-22 February 1984.

This volume contains 11 of 18 papers presented during the 8th National Economic Policy Workshop held in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, from 30th November to 2nd December 1992.

The book is divided into five parts: (1) The global context of economic and political liberalization; (2) rebalancing the public and private sectors; (3) the political economy of political pluralism; (4) international dimensions: trade, aid and debt; and (5) summary and recommendations.
