This book, the third in the Africa: Policies for Prosperity series,
is concerned with the challenges of securing economic prosperity in
Tanzania over the coming decades. Building on widespread economic
reforms in the early 1990s, Tanzania has recorded steady economic
growth over the last two decades, despite the downturn in global
economic fortunes since 2008. The process of reform is continuous,
however, and the challenge facing the current generation of
policymakers is how to harness these favourable gains in
macroeconomic stability and turn them into a coherent strategy for
labour-intensive, inclusive growth over the coming decades. The
next twenty years offer huge opportunity but also huge challenges
to Tanzania. The pace of economic transformation and integration
into the regional and global economy is picking up; society is
becoming much more urban and with population growth remaining high,
the need for high-quality employment, especially amongst the young,
has never been so pressing. At the same time, the discovery of
large natural gas reserves and a programme of heavy investment in
transport and communications infrastructure creates the opportunity
for Tanzania not just to exploit its natural locational advantage,
but to finance the investment in this transformation. This volume
brings leading international and national scholars into the policy
arena to examine these challenges and to lay out, in a rigorous but
accessible manner, economic policy options facing policymakers in
Tanzania.
