The introduction of the Ujamaa[1]
policy was regarded as a step forward to the socio-political and economic
changes in the post-independent period in Tanzania. Nyerere as the founder of
the Ujamaa policy, in his side, stood firm to ensure the Ujamaa policy restore
the personal dignity and the socio-economic welfare of Tanzanians which were lost
during the colonial period. The Ujamaa policy was practiced almost two decades,
and thus it could have brought the intended goals but it couldn’t in the way
that many Tanzanians lost their hopes especially on the means which were used
to operate the Ujamaa policy. The failure of the Ujamaa policy in the restoration
of human dignity and socio-economic and political welfare have been noticed to
be a cornerstone for its decline as argued by many scholars. But this article
explores the main reasons which necessitated to the demise of the Ujamaa policy
and opened the doors for modernization.  







[1] Ujamaa:
is a Swahili word which refers to socialism. This was policy was applied by
Nyerere in the establishment of a communal society in post-colonial Tanzania.
also, the term refers to familyhood

Ujamaa[1]
politikası, bağımsızlık sonrası dönemde sosyo-politik ve ekonomik
değişikliklere doğru atılmış bir adım olarak kabul edilmiştir. Nyerere, kurucu
olarak, kendi a
çısından
Ujamaa politikasının sömürge döneminde kaybedilen insan
onurunu geri kazanmak için politikayı restore etmek olarak tanıtmıştır. Ujamaa
politikası yaklaşık yirmi yıl uygulanmasına rağmen hedeflenenleri gerçekleştirilememiştir.
Söz konusu başarısızlıkla birlikte bu politikanın uygulanma biçimi birçok
Tanzanyalı’nın umutlarının tüketmesine yol açtımıştır., kaybedilen insan
onurunun restorasyonu ve sosyo-ekonomik ve politik refah elde etmedeki
başarısızlığı, birçok bilim insanının da tartıştığı gibi, Ujamaa politikasının uygulanmasındaki
başarısızlığın ana nedeni olarak görülmüştür. Bu makale, söz konusu nedenlerle
birlikte, Ujamaa politikasından vazgeçmeyi gerektiren diğer nedenleri de gün
yüzüne çıkarmayı ve Tanzanya'nın modernleşme sürecine nasıl girdiğini göstemeyi
amaçlamaktadır.

dönemde Tanzanya’da  
Nyrere tarafından
inşa edilen sosyalist  politikayı referans
için kullanılan ve Tanzanya’nın geleneksel aile yaşamını da çağrıştıran Swahilice
 bir kelimedir.
