| dc.description.abstract | This thesis pursues to study mass-participation decision making in the Regional Planning in Tanzania picking on Tanga Region as a case study. It starts by introducing the origins of mass-participation Regional Development planning in Tanzania, quoting Party Statements; and then after showing studies carried on related subjects, it then points out what was intended to be researched on. The first of the five chapters of this work discusses the concepts of mass-participation decision making in the planning process herein after referred to as mass-participation planning process, showing forms and virtues of mass-participation planning. In the same chapter is discussion of essence of regional planning, after which is one on mass-participation regional development planning and its development in Tanzania since Uhuru. After chapter two which introduces the area of study, showing the structural set up of the socio-economy of the Region, District, and Villages (Plus Wards) studied, come the third and fourth chapters that outline research findings, and chapter five that makes a general assessment of the extent mass-participation planning has been a success. Chapter three shows the working of the structural set up for regional planning, analyzing the structures and analyzing the various recommendations drawn by these structures. Lastly is analysis on the scope such a planning process extends. Chapter four shows plan implementation: the extent of success in plan implementation and restraints involved in plan implementation. The success of self-help in implementing projects (one of the virtues of carrying out mass-participation planning process} is dealt with at length. On the whole the thesis succeeds in showing the following. First, that the planning process follows the laid down structural set up. Second, that there is great limitation to effective mass-participation due to problems of low consciousness of the masses and leadership to the essence of self-reliance, due to little contact amongst the structures, due to governments financial constraint and finally due to the narrow scope in which the planning is defined. | en_US |
