Tanzania Africa: Policies For Prosperity Series Series Editors Christopher S Adam and Paul Collier For the first time in more than a generation, sustained economic growth has been achieved across Africa—despite the downturn in global economic fortunes since 2008—and in many countries these gains have been realized through policy reforms driven by the decisive leadership of a new generation of economic policy makers The process of reform is continuous, however, and the challenge currently facing this new generation is how to harness these favourable gains in macroeconomic stability and turn them into a coherent strategy for sustainable growth and poverty reduction over the coming decades These challenges are substantial and encompass the broad remit of economic policy Each volume in this series brings leading scholars into the policy arena to examine, in a rigorous but accessible manner, the key economic challenges and policy options facing policy makers on the continent BOOKS

any third party website referenced in this work Series Preface Policies for Prosperity Since the mid-1990s the economic prospects for Africa have been transformed The change has been uneven: some countries remain mired in conflict and economic stagnation But for many macroeconomic stability has been achieved—even through the global financial crisis and its aftermath– and farreaching policy reforms have been put in place For these countries, growth prospects in the first quarter of the twenty-first century are much brighter than at any time during the final quarter of the last century But converting good prospects into sustained growth and decisive poverty reduction requires a degree of good luck, good policy formulation, resources, and a lot of good economic management For policy improvements to be sustained they must be underpinned by more fundamental shifts in political power; sectional interests ruling through patronage must be defeated by the public interest And for the shift in power to be decisive, the achievements of individual reformers must be locked in through the development of effective institutions in both the public and private sectors The challenges are formidable: they range beyond the conventional agenda of macroeconomic management, infrastructure provision and the improvement of the investment climate For example, land policy, which has usually been left dormant, will need to be rethought in the face of high population growth rates and rapid urbanization; trade and industrial policies will need to be rethought so as to engage more effectively with changing global opportunities; and the continent will need to develop adaptive policies in the face of rapid climate change Many of the successes of recent decades have been wrought by the progressive leadership of a new generation of policy makers To build on these successes, this same generation needs both the support of, and restraint by, an informed and engaged society This is the fundamental philosophy of this series: informed societies are strong societies If citizens are to hold governments to account they require information, debate and dispassionate analysis on the challenges and choices confronting countries and their people This is especially relevant in the realm of economic policy where path-dependency is powerful and the consequences of choices are far-reaching and long-lasting Series Preface In many industrialized economies there is a long tradition of informed debate and analysis sustained in large measure by high-quality financial journalism In Africa, by contrast, while a dynamic and often fearless free press is now quite widely established, it still lacks a tradition of solid, durable, and independent writing on economic policy As a result local debate is too often ill-informed or is perceived to be driven by the agendas, and chequebooks, of sectional interests and international organizations There is now considerable academic research on the issues that matter for Africa and it could potentially inform Africa’s debates But to date it has been disconnected from them Increasingly, academics write only for other academics rather than to inform the public With this series of books we seek to build bridges between the evidence from solid research and contemporary policy debates Each book aims to bring together the best international and domestic scholars with policy makers working on economic policy issues across the continent Throughout, our contributors are required to write with clarity, avoiding academic jargon, but equally avoiding advocacy Focusing on the key issues that matter for a society, each chapter aims to leave readers better able to draw their own conclusions about important choices vi Acknowledgements This book is the outcome of an active collaboration amongst a wide range of scholars, officials and policy makers working on the economics of Tanzania Its origins lie in the close relationship forged over the last eight years between the Governor and staff of the Bank of Tanzania and the International Growth Centre (IGC) The IGC, of which two of us are members, is an international research network partnership hosted by the London School of Economics and the University of Oxford, and funded by the UK Department for International Development The IGC’s core objective is to promote sustainable growth in developing countries by providing demand-led policy advice based on frontier research The Bank of Tanzania’s commitment to promoting researchinformed policy, both within its own domain and also across the whole of the economic policy spectrum in Tanzania, has made it a natural partner for the IGC and, indeed, many of the chapters in this book emerge directly from work done under the aegis of the IGC and in close collaboration with the Bank We are particularly grateful to the Bank for hosting a highly productive authors’ writing workshop in Stone Town, Zanzibar, in June 2015 We thank the IGC in London for its financial support to the project and the current and former staff of the IGC-Tanzania office in Dar es Salaam—Pantaleo Kessy, Anne Laski, Joshua Chipman, Claire Lwehabura, Benjamin Langford, Angela Ambroz, Ambassador Charles Mutalemwa, and our non-resident Country Director, John Page—for their support and assistance as this project has evolved As the Series Editors stress in their preface to this volume, the fundamental idea underpinning the Policies for Prosperity series is that an informed society is a strong society This principle is central to the new dynamism in Tanzania and it has been our privilege to have been able to draw so deeply on the talent and insights from a wonderful set of authors based in the universities, research groups, institutes, think-tanks, and official institutions in Tanzania We thank all these institutions for their commitment to the book We also extend a special note of thanks to the Honourable Minister for Finance and Planning, Dr Philip Mpango, who was an important supporter of this project during his time as Executive Secretary of the President’s Office Planning Commission Acknowledgements Our final thanks go to our colleague, Rose Page, for her superb work behind the scenes in managing the process of turning our often chaotic contributions into a volume of which we can all be proud Rose has been our managing editor since the inception of this series It has been a great pleasure working with her and, as with the previous volumes, her guidance, support, and unfailing good humour has made our jobs as editors immeasurably easier viii Contents List of Figures List of Tables List of Boxes List of Abbreviations List of Contributors Introduction:
