After nearly two decades of multiparty democracy in Tanzania, a
clear indication of democratic reversals is more evident. The
opposition parties, the parliament, electoral commissions,
institutions of accountability, civil society organizations, and
the media have remained weak to envisage democracy. This book
contains an in-depth and rigorous analysis of the factors
contributing to and militating against democracy in Tanzania. Using
a state-party fusion thesis, the book provides a deeper
understanding of democratization by examining the institutions and
behaviour of political actors as well as historical and
contemporary dynamics into a theoretical framework that underscores
the anomalies, dilemmas and paradoxes in practicing democracy. It
argues that the ruling party is a State-Party in its own right and
hence suffocates the political space for other actors to play their
roles. The book breaks a new ground by providing thoughtful
provoking insights into democracy in a country from the developing
world. The work will be of interests to scholars and practitioners
of politics.
