Processos de Marginalização Étnica e Cultural na África Pós-Colonial. O Caso dos Amakhuwa de Moçambique

Abstract: Apesar de a questão étnica nunca ter constituído um elemento explícito na construção do Estado moçambicano, esta sempre caracterizou a vida pública do país, com tensões relevantes, mas geralmente negligenciadas. Durante a luta de libertação, dois grupos étnicos aliaram-se, os “intelectuais” ronga e os “guerrilheiros” maconde, de facto excluindo os outros povos de Moçambique deste processo que irá marcar indelevelmente a história do país pós-colonial. Na época socialista, o lema “matar a tribo para fazer a naçã… Show more

“…Then, the dissolution of the Westphalian nation-state system in many African countries could explain an insurgency which found in an extreme idea of Islam its practical configuration (Edgerly, 2023).
