- Michigan State Universiy Professor of Political Science David Rohde delivers a talk entitled, "The Causes and Consequences of Partisan Conflict in American Politics" at the MSU Main Library. Rohde discusses the reality of power politics, candidates submitting to party leadership to secure support for re-election, and a shift in power in party politics from party leaders to committees. He also says that the growing trend of differing policy positions within parties may be attributed to the advent of the primary system where voters have more influence on the candidate than party. Rohde answers questions from the audience. Rohde is introduced by MSU Librarian Ruth Ann Jones. Part of the Michigan State University Libraries' Colloquia series.

- Description:
- The debate on the form and content of Tanzania's constitution and democracy has been on the agenda throughout the four decades of independence. In the recent process of transition since the 1990s, a series of political reforms such as introducing multi-partyism have been undertaken with the view of widening the space for democracy. This paper addresses several problems surrounding this transition. It argues that democratization is much more than the introduction of multiparty politics and debates the various components of the constitution that are an obstacle to popular participation including the monopoly of political parties in politics. The main stay of democracy is for the people to have a say and power in their own lives and not to depend on the power of political parties.
