The Making of a periphery: Economic development and cultural encounters in southern Tanzania
The Making of a Periphery traces the economic, social, and cultural history of southern Tanzania, particularly the Makonde people, from the colonial era to the post-independence period. It demonstrates how the southern region was shaped as a "periphery" within the national economic structure by colonial policies, post-independence state-building, and modern market interactions. Through multidisciplinary research, the authors examine the dynamics of poverty, land access, the informal sector, livelihood strategies, and local political participation. It also reveals how economic changes and development interventions influenced the social and cultural relations between local communities and the state. As a compilation of anthropological, economic, and historical research, this work serves as an important reference for understanding regional marginalization and development processes in Tanzania.
