A Questão Indígena nas Políticas da Colonização Portuguesa em Angola (1926-1961)

Abstract

The present End of Course Work, whose theme is “The Indigenous Question in the Policies of Portuguese Colonization in Angola (1926-1961)” sought to address the Indigenous question in the Policies of Portuguese Colonization in Angola in the period between 1926 and 1961. The colonial system it was based on the concept that discriminated against Angolan blacks and their integration into Portuguese colonial society. The objective that led me to prepare this work is to make known the indigenous policies used by the colonial regime in the period between 1926 and 1961. Since poor knowledge and little dissemination on the subject is notorious in the student community and not only observed during the classes taught in the third year in the chair of History of Angola. To achieve the objectives, the following methods and techniques were applied: historical, comparative, deductive, inductive, bibliographic research, interview and questionnaire survey. This work is divided into three chapters: Chapter I deals with generalities, fundamentally on the geographical framework, that is, the administrative division of Angola's territory before and after Independence, flora and fauna, climate, hydrography; historical framework of Angola, that is, the origin of the term “Angola”, the population and economic context of Angola in the pre and colonial period. Chapter II approaches the indigenous issue in the policies of Portuguese colonization in Angola in the period between 1926 and 1961, specifically the colonization policies, the characteristics attributed to the “indigenous” and some of the repercussions resulting from the policies imposed on the Angolan colonized, such as such as January 4th and February 4th, 1961 and March 15th, 1961. Finally, Chapter III mentions the presentation, analysis and interpretation of data obtained from surveys
