The arusha declarations,
Introduction
The
arusha declarations, this was an idea of transforming Tanganyika into a
socialism country. This idea was derived by Mwalimu Julius Kambarage Nyerere during 1967.Also Nyerere declaring
that Tanzania should develop along the principal of socialism and Self
reliance.
The key of Arusha
declaration as follows:
A) Socialism,is a populist economic and political system
based on public ownership also know as ownership of the means of the production
those means including the machine,tools and factory used to produce goods to satisfy
human needs.In Arusha declaration discussed about the adaptation of socialism
because this period Tanzania under go changes after the Independence. so,
needed to make some reforms and seem the socialism was a good policy in these
reforms in Tanzania,Due to the following reasons:
.To fight
against neo colonialism;This was a policy introduced in Tanzania and other
countries granted Independence with their colonizers.In Tanzania after Independence
the neo colonialism was still present. So in Arusha declaration they adopt
socialism so as to stop this neo colonialism because since Independence people
lived with indicator of neo colonialism so socialism adopted and against this
policy of neo colonialism.
.To
avoid clases; socialism ideology is not preffer the classes among the people so
it preffer to live communally among them.example Mwalimu jk nyerere announced
the policy of socialism in order to all people to live without classes it means
that all private sector were nationalized to be a public owners.
.To
improve unity and solidarity;The socialism help to improve the unity among the
people, because after Arusha declaration 1967. After the announced the
socialism ideology led to the people to live together means that socialism
policy is going together with the unity and solidarity among the people.
.To
eradicate poverty; Mwalimu jk nyerere announced that socialism policy in order to
reduce poverty means that all Major means of production must be under public
owners so as to allow people to get enough area for production and people
working together for more productive food.
B) self reliance policy; is the
ability to do things and Make decisions by yourself without needing other
people to help you example self reliance of growing your own food.
The policy of self reliance,we are at
war,TANU is involved in the war against poverty and oppression in our
country.the struggle is aimed at moving the people of Tanzania and people of Africa
as whole from a state of poverty to a state of prosperity.we have been oppressed
a great deal,we have been exploited a great deal and we have been disregarded a
great deal, it is our weakness that has led to being oppressed, exploited and disregarded.
Now we want a revolution, a revolution which brings an end to our weakness so
that we are never again exploited, oppressed or hummiliated. They brief our
five years development plan aimed at: _more food.
_more education
_better health services
But the we have put emphasis upon is Money
it's as if we said in the next five years we want to have more food, more
education and better health services and in order to achieve this things we
shall spend Euro 25000000.
In education nyerere introduced
education for self reliance means that Tanzanians development should depends on
her natural resources.This concept is also about self confidence,Independence
,responsibilities and democratic movement.so Tanzanian seem to be lacking this
elements as revealed by the problems facing the citizens including poverty,
ignorance,moral decadence,false believe, social disntergretion, economic dependence,
exploitation and social injustice.
The aims of this education was to equipt
leaners with knowledge skills and attitude for tackling societal problem. Also
to prepare the youths for work in Tanzania's predominantly agricultural society
and to know, appreciate and develop culture of Tanzania that preserves the
nation tradition, individual freedom, responsibility, tolerance and respect.so
this education it shape the general concept of self reliance because it deal
with all aspects social, economic and political issues.how to build new Tanzania
since Independence.
