dc.description |
his article traces the evolution of corruption as a political issue in Tanzania
and evaluates the efforts of the Mkapa administration to control it. Corruption
is conceptualized as embedded in societal, economic and power relations.
However, many of the anti-corruption efforts are part of liberal reforms that are
based on the assumption that corruption is an individual act or personal misuse
of public office for private gain. These liberal reforms are, at best, of limited
value because they fail to take into account much of the dynamics that support
corruption in Tanzania. While the Mkapa administration has taken partially
successful steps to control corruption, these efforts have not fundamentally
undermined the supporting environment for corruption in the country. |
