The making of a Cold War city in eastern Africa -- Revisiting the politics of the Arusha Declaration -- Dilemmas of non-alignment : Tanzania and the German Cold War -- The assassination of Eduardo Mondlane : Mozambican revolutionaries in Dar es Salaam -- Tanzania's '68 : Cold War interventions, youth protest, and global anti-imperialism -- Decolonising the media : press and politics in revolutionary Dar es Salaam -- Mwongozo : the African revolution, reloaded.

Tracing Dar es Salaam's rise and fall as an epicentre of Third World revolution, George Roberts explores the connections between the global Cold War, African liberation struggles, and Tanzania's efforts to build a socialist state. Instead of understanding decolonisation through a national lens, he locates the intersection of these dynamics in a globally-connected city in East Africa. Revolutionary State-Making in Dar es Salaam introduces a vibrant cast of politicians, guerrilla leaders, diplomats, journalists, and intellectuals whose trajectories collided in the city. In its cosmopolitan and rumour-filled hotel bars, embassy receptions, and newspaper offices, they grappled with challenges of remaking a world after empire. Yet Dar es Salaam's role on the frontline of the African revolution and its provocative stance towards global geopolitics came at considerable cost. Roberts explains how Tanzania's strident anti-imperialism ultimately drove an authoritarian turn in its socialist project and tighter control over the city's public sphere.
