Lethal Aid: The Illusion of Socialism and Self-Reliance in Tanzania

by Severine Mushambampale Rugumamu

Book Overview

Despite massive infusions of financial and technical assistance from the northern hemisphere, Africa is worse of today - economically, societally, and environmentally - then it was 30 years ago. Taking the Tanzanian experience as an example, this book examines the true role of foreign aid in the development process and exposes certain widely-held myths about that role.
