Book excerpt: When members of the Reproductive Health Study Group at the University of Dar es Salaam conducted their first set of studies, they focused on the plight of teenage girls. In undertaking this second set of studies they have widened their focus to include the social institutions that regulate reproduction, initiation into adulthood, marriage, and parental obligations. Differences in social and economic assets, in worldview and aspirations, in the perception of modernity and its offerings in the rate at which traditional life collapses and the demands of modernity assert themselves, result in social conflict and ambiguity. These are the main themes addressed by the authors of Haraka, Hakaka... Look before you leap.
