Book Description
The author who comes from Tanzania in a district that borders Malawi looks at ways in which the dispute between the two countries on Lake Nyasa/Malawi can be resolved. He contends that the dispute cannot be resolved without compromise and bold concessions by both sides. The work contains a number of proposals which may help pave the way towards resolving the conflict. Failure to do so means only one thing: maintaining the status quo which has existed since the dispute started almost 60 years ago. He goes on to argue that escalation of the crisis into a potentially explosive situation cannot be ruled out, with dire consequences for both sides; hence the need for both countries to accept the unacceptable, if they want to resolve the dispute, by making bold concessions they don't want to make. The dispute cannot be resolved by military means if one or both countries were to opt for such a “solution,” which is not a solution at all, he contends.

Book Description
The challenges for young people making the transition to adulthood are greater today than ever before. Globalization, with its power to reach across national boundaries and into the smallest communities, carries with it the transformative power of new markets and new technology. At the same time, globalization brings with it new ideas and lifestyles that can conflict with traditional norms and values. And while the economic benefits are potentially enormous, the actual course of globalization has not been without its critics who charge that, to date, the gains have been very unevenly distributed, generating a new set of problems associated with rising inequality and social polarization. Regardless of how the globalization debate is resolved, it is clear that as broad global forces transform the world in which the next generation will live and work, the choices that today's young people make or others make on their behalf will facilitate or constrain their success as adults. Traditional expectations regarding future employment prospects and life experiences are no longer valid. Growing Up Global examines how the transition to adulthood is changing in developing countries, and what the implications of these changes might be for those responsible for designing youth policies and programs, in particular, those affecting adolescent reproductive health. The report sets forth a framework that identifies criteria for successful transitions in the context of contemporary global changes for five key adult roles: adult worker, citizen and community participant, spouse, parent, and household manager.

Book Description
Nyerere's economic policies, his successes and failures in pursuit of economic development under socialism, are some of the subjects addressed by the author in this book. A Tanzanian himself., he also looks at how life was under Nyerere since the sixties. The work is also a critical examination of the political situation in Tanzania since independence when the country was known as Tanganyika before uniting with Zanzibar. The author also looks at the transition that has taken place in Tanzania from one-party rule to multiparty democracy, and from socialism to capitalism since the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. He also takes a critical look at globalization and the negative impact of structural adjustment programmes in Tanzania and Africa as a whole. The work is also a study of Tanzania's history since the advent of colonial rule and of the struggle for independence in one of Africa's largest countries.
