Tanganyika was a self governing land of communities long before the historical Berlin Conference of 1884. The land was vested in communities and land control was the primary objective for the sustenance of each family and communities providing individual and collective needs of the communities. The communities fell under colonialism and became a German colony from 1884 to 1917 and a British Protectorate from 1918 to 1961. Tanganyika gained political independence from the British on 9th December, 1961 and became a Republic in 1962. Zanzibar became independent on 10th December, 1963 and the People's Republic of Zanzibar was established after the Zanzibar Revolution of 12th January, 1964.The two sovereign states joined to form one sovereign country - The United Republic of Tanzania (URT) on 26th April, 1964. Land in the URT is however, not among the list of matters comprising the union as Zanzibar regulates its land differently from Tanzania mainland. of all sectors in the economy, agriculture land use has been stagnant for many years. Poverty and human development report 2009 shows that the sector has shown growth rates of 4.4% since 2000, well below MKUKUTA's target of 10% by 2010 and the sector's contribution to the economy declined to 24% in 2008. The report also states that "a significant proportion of households have consumption levels not far from the poverty line. Households too are diversifying out of agriculture to improve well-being." Among all the world's countries, Tanzania's gross domestic product (GDP) is the fifth most dependent on agri¬culture-about 45%. At least 76% of the population works in the agricultural sector. Tanzania has the world's 18th lowest rate of urbanization: just 25% of its people live in urban areas. Against this backdrop, most Tanzanian farmers work very small plots and grow food mostly for domestic consumption. Low productivity on these farms is endemic. According to the World Food Program, more than 40% of Tanzania's population lives in chronic food-deficit regions. The extreme prevalence of HIV/AIDS, which infects 6.2% of the country's adult population, compounds the effects of poor productivity and hunger. At least 38% of children under five in Tanzania are chronically malnourished (that is, their height is stunted for their age), and more than 50% of children suffer stunted growth in over 30% of all regions in the country.after the attainment of independence in 1961, Freehold Titles were converted into leaseholds for a term of 99 years under the Freehold Titles (Conversion) and Government Leases Act (Cap 523) of 1963. This legislation changed freehold titles into government leases, in effect reducing the largest quantum of estate in land, the perpetual and unfettered freehold title to a Government Lease which is a lesser and finite interest in land exercisable for a maximum period of 99 years only. Subsequently, by virtue of the Government Leaseholds (Conversion of Right of Occupancy) Act No. 44 of 1969, all Government leases were converted into Rights of Occupancy. It is noteworthy that Freehold titles that were issued to foreigners by the German and British governments and subsequently converted to Government Leases and Rights of Occupancy in 1963 and 1969 are still active and have a residual life of around 41 years.

Zanzibar Was a Country traces the history of a Swahili-speaking Arab diaspora from East Africa to Oman. In Oman today, whole communities in Muscat speak Swahili, have recent East African roots, and practice forms of sociality associated with the urban culture of the Swahili coast. These "Omani Zanzibaris" offer the most significant contemporary example in the Gulf, as well as in the wider Indian Ocean region, of an Afro-Arab community that maintains a living connection to Africa in a diasporic setting. While they come from all over East Africa, a large number are postrevolution exiles and emigrés from Zanzibar. Their stories provide a framework for the broader transregional entanglements of decolonization in Africa and the Arabian Gulf. Using both vernacular historiography and life histories of men and women from the community, Nathaniel Mathews argues that the traumatic memories of the Zanzibar Revolution of 1964 are important to nation-building on both sides of the Indian Ocean.

Notions of ustaarabu, a word expressing “civilization,” and questions of identities in Zanzibar have historically been shaped by the development of Islam and association with littoral societies around the Indian Ocean. The 1964 Revolution marked a break in that history and imposed new notions of African civilization and belonging in Zanzibar. The revolutionary state subsequently introduced tourism and the market economy to maintain its hegemony over Zanzibar. In light of these developments, and with locals facing growing socio-economic marginalization and political uncertainty, Tourism and Social Change in Post-Socialist Zanzibar: Struggles for Identity, Movement, and Civilization examines how Zanzibaris are struggling to move through the local landscape in the post-socialist era and articulate their ideas of belonging in Zanzibar. This book further investigates how movements of Zanzibaris within the emerging and contending social discourses are reconstituting meanings for conceptualizing ustaarabu to define their roots in Zanzibar.

Zanzibar has had the most turbulent postcolonial history of any part of the United Republic of Tanzania, yet few sources explain the reasons why. The current political impasse in the islands is a contest over the question of whether to revere and sustain the Zanzibari Revolution of 1964, in which thousands of islanders, mostly Arab, lost their lives. It is also about whether Zanzibar's union with the Tanzanian mainland--cemented only a few months after the revolution--should be strengthened, reformed, or dissolved. Defenders of the revolution claim it was necessary to right a century of wrongs. They speak the language of African nationalism and aspire to unify the majority of Zanzibaris through the politics of race. Their opponents instead deplore the violence of the revolution, espouse the language of human rights, and claim the revolution reversed a century of social and economic development. They reject the politics of race, regarding Islam as a more worthy basis for cultural and political unity. From a series of personal interviews conducted over several years, Thomas Burgess has produced two highly readable first-person narratives in which two nationalists in Africa describe their conflicts, achievements, failures, and tragedies. Their life stories represent two opposing arguments, for and against the revolution. Ali Sultan Issa traveled widely in the 1950s and helped introduce socialism into the islands. As a minister in the first revolutionary government he became one of Zanzibar's most controversial figures, responsible for some of the government's most radical policies. After years of imprisonment, he reemerged in the 1990s as one of Zanzibar's most successful hotel entrepreneurs. Seif Sharif Hamad came of age during the revolution and became disenchanted with its broken promises and excesses. In the 1980s he emerged as a reformist minister, seeking to roll back socialism and authoritarian rule. After his imprisonment he has ever since served as a leading figure in what has become Tanzania's largest opposition party As Burgess demonstrates in his introduction, both memoirs trace Zanzibar's postindependence trajectory and reveal how Zanzibaris continue to dispute their revolutionary heritage and remain divided over issues of memory, identity, and whether to remain a part of Tanzania. The memoirs explain how conflicts in the islands have become issues of national importance in Tanzania, testing that state's commitment to democratic pluralism. They engage our most basic assumptions about social justice and human rights and shed light on a host of themes key to understanding Zanzibari history that are also of universal relevance, including the legacies of slavery and colonialism and the origins of racial violence, poverty, and underdevelopment. They also show how a cosmopolitan island society negotiates cultural influences from Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe.

Tanzania is rivalled by few countries, if any, in terms of its bountiful natural and cultural tourist attractions. Given that tourism development, if sustainable, is an outstanding policy for distributing welfare, even to less developed parts of a country, this field is of particular importance to Tanzania. In this edited volume, prominent scholars focus on the practises and policies of tourism development, with a particular eye on the case of Tanzania. They explore the demand for sustainability from international tourists, the need for local food and linkages between the tourism and agricultural sectors, and the production of tourism services in a responsible and inclusive way. The book will be a valuable source of knowledge for the tourism industry, as well as policymakers, scholars and students who are concerned about the development of a form of tourism which benefits a country, inclusively and responsibly.
