Abstract of Review
Title:Women in Tanzania: An Analytical Bibliography by Ophelia Mascarenhas
Reviewer:Deborah Fahy Bryceson
Location:Vol.10 No.27/28 (Winter 1983), p215
 This collection lists 400 references on Tanzanian women and development, analytically reviewed in such a way that the content and tone of recent debates are vividly conveyed to the reader. There are sections on women's struggles as peasants and workers, the nature of their class and sexual oppression, their economic and and political participation, how they are affected by and affect ideology, the education and legal systems, women's biological reproduction and sexuality, family and domestic labour, health and nutrition. It situates these topics within an overall analytical framework which in turn is related to Tanzania's social and political development and recent economic crisis.
