Subsequently, he obtained an M.A. and a Ph.D. from Stanford University, California.
Dr. Temu spent 10 years (1963-1973) in teaching and research: in Kenya, first as Economics Tutor at the College of Social Studies, and then as Research Fellow at the Institute of Development Studies of the University of Nairobi; and in Tanzania, as Director of the Economic Research Bureau, University of Dar es Salaam.
From 1974-1977 he served as National Planning Controller in the Tanzanian Ministry of Finance and Planning, and later as Director of the Institute of Finance Management in Dar es Salaam.
For over 19 years, from 1977 until his retirement in 1996, Dr. Temu worked for the United Nations as a professional economist at various duty stations; devoting half the time to the service of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (in Addis Ababa and Lusaka), and half to the United Nations World Food Council (in Rome and New York).
The present book is the fourth he has authored since his retirement. The others are: Fighting to Keep My Job – Case Study of a United Nations Retiree; The Unspoken Truth about Globalization; and The Unspoken Truth About Privatization.ver menos
