Education for liberation, according to freire 1970,

-

Introduction   
  Education for liberation, according to freire 1970, described education as a process of liberation, which set man free all kind of inhibitions and limitations, and makes him free to act humanly in the world. Also
     According to Nyerere 1982 say education has to liberate a man by making him more of a human being because, becoming aware of his potential as a human being he is in a positive life enhancing relationship with himself with his neighbors and with his environment. For this manner Nyerere viewed the purpose of education as liberation and development. According to him development is of man for man, which should similarly be the purpose of education.
   Nyerere understood education as a tool for liberation both an individual and the society. A tool which should liberate and individual socially economically, psychologically cultural, physically, intellectually and spiritually further education should add valid to learner through effective transformation that lead to the growth of society and development of a nation. The main purpose of this work was to examine the concept of education as a tool for liberation in Nyerere understanding. The work present a theoretical frame work.
    Psycho-physical elements education out to set both the mind and body of man free from psychological and physical constraints. It should liberate him/her from the chain of ignorance and enable him/her to take control over him or her-self and enjoy his or her own environment. Nyerere argues that when a man succeed to unite his or her wrists and to liberate his own arms, he can therefore liberate his feet from shackles by using his hand he further  emphasize that a man can be free from restraints physically and still remain in captive. If at all his/her mind is limited by altitude and habits that restrict his or her humanity (Hinzen and hunds dorfer, 1982)
      Socio-political aspect education the learners are expected to acquire the kind of education which will liberate them from the social and political constraints. The arguments given by Nyerere above deduces that an educated individual is one who can freely socialize with other and participate in state affairs consciously, nyerere’s social political liberation is backed by many other philosopher especially existentialist like martin Buber with his I-thou: Buber(1984) show how an individual needs other from his/her existence as he say”

     Mental and moral aspects education should liberate an individual both mentally and morally: mental liberation will enable an individual to be creative and competent in making use of his her own natural resources for the development of himself or herself and the society in general (Gerard, 1993), for Nyerere a man will work with other to use whatever resources are at hand which may be his or her own knowledge, the knowledge of other, the land the walir or simply his or her own sweat.
      Features of a liberated person Nyerere tried to show the difference between a liberated and unliberated person by using two different Swahili words “msomi” ( a person whom education has not transformed) and asiyeclimika “(a person whom the education has transformed). According Nyerere, the former is a person who has lead through books and is “a learner friend” as lawyer say but the lather is a person who has fully intergraded and applies in life what he or she has studied. The implies the liberated person is able appropriately use the knowledge acquired to his or her own situation.
    A part of Nyerere views about education for liberation to Tanzania countries also Paul freire came’s with his views to cement or to contribute about education for liberation how is potential in society as follows,
Literacy and conscuntization.
   Freire’s literacy method is founder on the nation of conscuntization and dialogue. It involve teaching adults how to read and write in relation to the awakening of their consciousness about their social reality “consciousness is a process of developing consciousness, but consciousness that is understood to have the power to transform reality” and sander (1968)
    Education and social change.
Freire’s literacy method whose key concepts are consciontization and dialogue has contributed to our understanding of the processes of education and social change centers on his contention that education cannot be neutral. It can either be demonstrating or liberating his analysis include a critism of the banking education (1970)
 
 Freire’s critism of banking education.
In his work pedagogy of the oppressed (1970), freire criticisize the banking conception of education which the labels bourgoes. In this conception of education, the education thinks and learners are don’t know. The education speaks and the leaner’s listen quality.


Conclusion: 
 All in all we can say that Nyerere and freire views in educational for liberation argue that it is very potential to the society has Tanzania  education hence Tanzania education is for liberation because it have potential to the Individual and whole society as Nyerere and freire says.

International Law

    International Law The body of law that governs the legal relations between or among states or nations.To qualify as a subject under the traditional definition of international law, a state had to be sovereign: It needed a territory, a population, a government, and the ability to engage in diplomatic or foreign relations. States within the United States, provinces, and cantons were not considered subjects of international law, because they lacked the legal authority to engage in foreign relations. In addition, individuals did not fall within the definition of subjects that enjoyed rights and obligations under international law. so there are two types of international law which are public and private international law. Public International Law: Public International laws have been designed to examine the relationships between the countries and states and they govern the binding rules of the international community to avoid any dispute.
