Declaration was declayed 1967 when the leadership of country realize if you want

THE KEY FOUNDATIONS OF ARUSHA DECLARATION
Socialism(ujamaa)
This was
a social and economic policy developed and implemented in Tanzania by president
Julius Kambarage Nyerere (1922–1999) between 1964 and 1985. Based on the idea of
collective farming and the "villagization" of the countryside, ujamaa
also called for the nationalization of banks and industry and an increased level
of self-reliance at both an individual and national level.
Nyerere set out his policy in the Arusha Declaration
of Feb. 5, 1967. The process started slowly and was voluntary at first, but by the
end of the 1960s, there were only 800 or so collective settlements. In the 1970s,
Nyerere's reign became more oppressive, as he began to force people to leave the
cities and move to the collective villages. By the end of the 1970s, there were
over 2,500 of these villages: but things weren't going well in them.
Self reliance
This
was the policy which emphasized during the
Arusha declaration it started that everyone in the state whatever his or her actual
occupation was workers and that all means of production would be nationalized for
common good also in this case the self reliance based in intruded a leadership code
to promote equality among all Tanzania citizens this code was one of prevent party
leadership party and well to individuals from forming privileged exploitative groups,
Also self reliance go hand with our policy of socialism in order to prevent exploitation it is necessary for everybody to work and to live
onhis own labour and to distribute the nation weath rairly, it necessary for everybody
to work to the maximum of his ability.likewise no body should be allowed to loiter
in towns or villages without doing work which would enable his or her to be self
reliant without exploiting relatives
Effects of Arusha Declaration to the individuals and
whole society
Ujamaa was
intended to recreate nuclear families and engage the small communities in an "economy
of affection" by tapping into the traditional African attitudes, while at the
same time introducing essential services and modern technological innovations for
the rural population that was now the majority. But traditional ideals of how families
operated no longer matched the reality of the Tanzanians. The traditional devoted
female domestic guardian of the family rooted in the village was contrary to the
actual lifestyles of women—and maybe the ideal never had worked. Instead, women
moved in and out of working and raising children throughout their lives, embracing
diversification and flexibility to provide personal security.
At the same time, although young men complied with the
official orders and moved to the rural communities, they rejected the traditional
models and distanced themselves from the older generation of male leaders within
their family.
Created
a high literacy rate socialism or ujamaa left high rate of ignorant people in Tanzania
due to high dependant economy and during that time there was poor infastructure
like school and road and few numbers educated man so through such situations they
left high number of people who does not know to read and to write so this is how
the socialism affect individuals in the society
infant
mortality through access to medical facilities and education so in this case many
children die before five year due to poor
health services which provide in the hospital as results of socialism or ujamaa
Transportation
networks declined drastically through neglect,the socialism was left the major means
of transport and communication poor as roads
and railways was left poor so due to such situations the many people was affected
hence the roads which are used to transport raw material was left poor.
Industry and banking were crippled also this is
among of the effect of ujamaa in Tanzania the industry and banking were crippled
due to the poor suculation of money this means that there was high debit and great
economic depression in Tanzania this was how people of Tanzania was affected by
ujamaa
Left the
country dependent on international aid,The ujamaa was left the country to depend
international aids as the Tanzania budget depending from international aids rather
than using resources available in the country this is due to the effect left by
socialism or ujamaa in Tanzania until now the still the country depend from international
aids
Conclusion
Generally
Arusha Declaration was sort of vision for Tanzania that set out economy and social
priority in any economy want all sphere of country to develop because the economy of the country in the base of activities
politically socially and politically.
