Deborah Fahy Bryceson
ISBN 85255 134 7 1993; 320pp; TShs. 8,500.00

Bryceson shows the way the process has affected 197 grain traders and 188 households in five Tanzanian towns in a study made four years after parastatal marketing was reformed in the mid-eighties, and drawing on ten years’ research to put this rich material within the political, social and geographical context of a country which took a pioneering role after independence.

Mkapa’s third phase government (1995-2000) and the policy options his government should consider.
