Nyerere's economic policies, his successes and failures in pursuit of economic development under socialism, are some of the subjects addressed by Godfrey Mwakikagile 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.

Mwakikagile 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. Africa Socialism Soviet Union Capitalism
