Description

Explore the complex social and economic structures of East Africa with this academic study from Routledge. Based on fieldwork in the West Usambaras of Tanzania, this book examines the processes of class formation and capitalist accumulation within rural settings. It provides a detailed look at the dynamics of rural poverty and how gender relations function within these communities. Originally published in 1990, this work offers a critical perspective on how the socialist state can systematically reinforce rural differentiation. The authors provide a necessary critique of government intervention, making this an essential resource for students and professionals studying economic policy and development. By discussing alternative and more effective forms of policy, this text serves as a foundational piece for understanding the intersection of social class, gender, and economic development in Africa.
