Description:
It is no wonder that, when Julius Nyerere died in 1999, he was translating The Republic into Swahili. As the first President of Tanzania, a Pan-Africanist leader, and a theorist of African socialism, Nyerere spent his long political career consciously occupied by the age-old struggles Socrates posed between the individual and community, rulers and ruled, and development and decadence.
