Multinationals, workers and the parastatals in Tanzania
Abstract
Does nationalisation provide the answer to the increasing domination of the mncs? In the Tanzanian case, nationalisation has given the Government, through the ‘parastatal’ enterprises, control of a significant part of the industrial sector, but essentially decision making remains unplanned and uncoordinated. The parastatals remain at the mercy of the foreign technical expert, or of the management agreement with the former mnc owner. The development of an independent technological base requires not only trained scientists and technologists, but cadres committed to a socialist and self‐reliant development strategy. Nationalisation further means workers' participation and control. The parastatals in Tanzania have, as a result of Government control of workers' initiatives, remained closer to the mncs than to the workers.
