El artículo busca entender de forma sincrónica las líneas fundamentales de la política exterior de Cabo Verde y sus reflejos en las relaciones internacionales, desde el período de la independencia hasta la actualidad. La perspectiva central es que la independencia en 1975 representó para el Estado de Cabo Verde una nueva era aunque se tenía la idea de un Estado inviable. La estrategia para superar esta situación sería a través de una participación activa en las relaciones internacionales, en particular una política exterior pragmática que encajaba dentro de un marco de consulta e interacción con otros Estados. Mediante un enfoque interdisciplinario e interpretativo, se busca analizar los fenómenos sociales-internacionales de la política exterior caboverdiana, sabiendo que ambos se encuentran relacionados tanto en el campo de la historia y la sociología como en el campo de las ciencias políticas y relaciones internacionales. Se proponen nuevos desafíos para la política exterior de Cabo Verde, en una economía internacional sacudida por la crisis financiera, una apuesta por una mayor integración regional en el continente africano, aprovechando estratégicamente el continente como una nueva frontera de desarrollo.

The purpose of this investigation was to study the extent to which Portuguese soccer goalkeepers used imagery, and to examine if and how athletes of different ages differed in their use of imagery. Seventy soccer goalkeepers playing in the two major Portuguese soccer leagues completed the translated versions of the Sports Inventory of Mental Strategies, the Imagery Use Questionnaire for Soccer Players, the Sport Imagery Training and the Sport Imagery Questionnaire. The results showed that imagery was most used in competition than in training, preferably in its visual dimension and from an internal perspective. The results also demonstrated that athletes used imagery both for motivational and cognitive purposes, but the motivational function, namely its general-mastery component, was slightly more used and with more vivid images. After competition and when injured, under-21 athletes used imagery significantly less than their older counterparts.

O artigo procura analisar a relação que se estabelece entre o poder executivo e legislativo no sistema de governo cabo-verdiano, onde Investigadores buscam compreendê-lo, tendo em conta a sua configuração prática, teórica e constitucional. Há que realçar a proeminência do debate e dos estudos realizados no sentido de compreender como é que a academia científica procura debelar esta problemática. Duas questões são pertinentes neste debate: a primeira refere-se à configuração teórico-constitucional do sistema de governo cabo-verdiano e a outra à prática política e legislativa

The West African region has immeasurable natural resources and a market of more than 300 million consumers, contributing directly to the dynamics of the global economy. This article aims to identify the importance of this region in the development of Cape Verde, an economically dependent country that has given primacy to its foreign policy to bet on political and economic diplomacy. This investigation was a literature review, complemented through an interpretative analysis, in which the results obtained may allow to consider that the archipelago of Cape Verde needs to delineate a new paradigm of regional integration, vying for the West African geo-economics’ space and using as a platform to provide services to other ECOWAS countries, so that the gains may also revert to the strengthening of cooperation with the African continent.Keywords: Cape Verde; West Africa; ECOWAS; Regional Integration; Development.
