New forms of accumulation in Tanzania: The case of gold mining

Pages 2-13 | Published online: 02 Apr 2009
 

Abstract

In this article Chachage Seithy L Chachage shows that the legal framework and attitude towards private investments in Tanzania over the years has been favourable.

“It is obvious,” he argues “that the World Bank's thesis that mining in Africa was hampered by controls and inappropriate policies is based on false premises. It rests at the very least on confusion between mining in general and mining by very large scale foreign private companies.”

The article was prepared for a research proposal review workshop on structural adjustment and social change in Africa, held in Lesotho November 1992 as a part of the Scandinavian Institute of African Studies Research Programme ‘The Political and Social Context of Structural Adjustment in Sub-Saharan Africa’.
