Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Law - Public Law / Constitutional Law / Basic Rights, Mzumbe University (MZUMBE UNIVERSITY MAIN CAMPUS), course: LL.B, language: English, abstract: Most aspects of human life are dependent on the political make up of the state and
the contemporary world has put into priority democratic forms of government as it
allows the followers to have a dictative power to determine who to rule over them
and under which standards the leader should conduct his reign. For that porpose
democratic elections were introduced in The United Republic of Tanzania.
For the purpose of ensuring democratic elections, laws are enacted and put into force
both at the municipal and international levels. Also, electoral management bodies are
established by the laws to execute the purpose in all democratic elections. In
Tanzania two bodies act for the purpose as establised by the Constitutions inforce
therein. The bodies are the National Electoral and Zanzibar Electoral Commissions
(NEC and ZEC). The core principle governing the powers and operations of these
commissions are independence and impartiality and the elections executed in
complience with the principles are deemed free and fair (just), this is tested by the
electoral stakeholders through their post electoral views and commentaries.
Generally, the study is about the independence and impartiality of the commissions
as to secure confidence of the public in their dealings so as to realise democratic
elections in the state.
The study is made up of five chapters as follows: Chapter one covers the background
information, research problem, research objectives, and research methodology.
Chapter two explains the conceptual framework covering the operational meanings
of key words concepts and the perspectives of various levels of the universe on
democratic elections. Chapter three provides the legal and institutional frameworks,
while Chapter four dwells on analysis and presentation of findings of the study. The
last chapter provides the conclusion and proposes recommendations to curb the
researched problem.
