Résumé:

"The Future That Works: Selected Writings of A.M. Babu" is a comprehensive collection of essays, articles, and speeches by Abdulrahman Mohamed Babu, a prominent Tanzanian politician, scholar, and revolutionary. Born in Zanzibar in 1924, Babu was a committed Marxist and Pan-Africanist who played a pivotal role in the 1964 Zanzibar Revolution and served as a minister under Julius Nyerere in the newly formed nation of Tanzania. This anthology spans nearly four decades of his work, covering themes such as economic policies, Pan-Africanism, democracy, international relations, and Marxist theory. Edited by his daughter, Salma Babu, and scholar Amrit Wilson, the book offers insights into Babu's analytical approach to key political events and processes in Africa and beyond, reflecting his unwavering commitment to social justice and progressive politics. The collection includes seminal essays like "Postscript to 'How Europe Underdeveloped Africa'" (1971), "Open Letter to Mugabe" (1980), and "The Tanzania That Might Have Been" (1988), providing a clear and analytical perspective on various political issues.
