As part of UCD's After Empire programme of events, former President of Tanzania, Benjamin Mkapa gives a unique insight into his country's experiences since independence.
The interviews were conducted by Dr Conor Mulvagh (UCD School of History) in University College Dublin's historic Belfield House in February 2016.

The transition from imperialism towards national governance was an experience common to many emerging states during the 20th Century.
