Changing the Rules: The Politics of Liberalization and the Urban Informal Economy in Tanzania provides a comprehensive examination of Tanzania's informal economy, highlighting its critical role as both a survival mechanism and a force for political and economic change. Amid the economic crises of the 1980s, Tanzanians increasingly turned to informal activities to bridge the vast gap between formal wages and the cost of living. This shift not only redefined economic participation but also challenged the statist and socialist frameworks that had dominated Tanzania's post-independence policies. The book explores how the informal economy reshaped dependencies, strengthened grassroots initiatives, and exerted pressure on the state to adapt through liberalization and reform. The study delves into the socio-political dynamics underlying this transformation, from the emergence of new economic practices to the state’s reluctant acknowledgment of these activities. By documenting the interplay between everyday resistance and policy shifts, the book reveals how informal economic strategies undermined restrictive state norms and forced significant institutional changes. Through chapters that analyze household dynamics, gendered economic roles, and shifting state-society relations, the author presents a nuanced picture of how Tanzanians redefined survival and governance. This book is essential for understanding how grassroots economic adaptations can drive systemic transformation in developing nations.

Changing the Rules
All therapists at some time or other are confronted with cases that do not fit the assumptions of their chosen theoretical model--clients who should get better do not, while others improve for reasons the model does not explain. One lesson that can (and should) be drawn from such cases is that the client's perception of the therapist's behavior and of the intervention process is a powerful factor in therapeutic success or failure. These relationship factors account for a significant proportion of change in psychotherapy, yet little has been written about how to utilize them. Filling a gap in the literature, this book presents a pragmatic application of these simple but difficult experiential lessons to the practice of individual, couple, and family therapy. When should a therapist shift gears? And how is it done? CHANGING THE RULES presents a flexible methodology for practice that encourages clinicians to utilize their clients' interpretations in constructing more effective interventions. Providing a developmental and empirical context for the approach, the book covers the initial interview and the selection, design, and delivery of interventions, as well as issues such as ethics and gender bias. Several case examples and two full-length studies demonstrate each stage of the therapeutic process, fully illustrating the approach and enabling the creative therapist to replicate it in practice. Proposing a coherent framework for practice that empowers relationship effects, enhances therapist flexibility, and expands the repertoire of intervention strategies for working with individuals, couples, and families, this volume is an invaluable resource for clinicians, academicians, and students regardless of theoretical orientation.
