Abstract: | The ujama villages of the Ruvuma Development Association provided the models for much of President Nyerere's writing in 1967. They were used as demonstrations of what ujamaa vijijini should be, and as training centres for ujamaa cadres. Yet in September 1969 the Association was suppressed and its assets confiscated by the Party. This paper, written ten years later, describes the Association and its villages, attempts to evaluate its achievements, and to understand the reasons for its suppression in 1969. Ref. |
