    <title>Between Populism and Authoritarianism – The vertex of the Southern Hemisphere</title>
    <description><![CDATA[
      <p class="resume"><span xml:lang="en" lang="en">Addressing the functioning of the international community implies understanding the different models of governance that exist, in a process that has seen significant changes throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. The current context allows us to verify a remarkable diversity of governance models and the growth of populist and authoritarian alternatives. This trend marks a resistance to the global democratic wave. We can identify causes and stimuli for changes in the structure and functioning of political regimes, but also an opportunity to identify possible reasons behind the setbacks in the globalisation of democracy. This article focuses on two topics: discussing the relationship between populism and authoritarianism and further analysing this movement in the Southern Hemisphere, contributing to the study of political regimes in Africa and Latin America.</span></p>]]></description>

    <title>Angola in the International Arena – Foreigners’ “energy security” first?</title>
    <description><![CDATA[
      <p class="resume"><span xml:lang="en" lang="en">In the context of the research project “</span><span xml:lang="en" lang="en">Sociedade Civil e Política em Angola</span><span xml:lang="en" lang="en">”, this article considers forces at work from outside Angola, whose governance and economy have been “de-nationalised” for a long time. The authors first look back at their contributions to project’s initial phases. They then focus on the ensuing period until 2023, which saw Angola pushed yet more deeply into a corporate-led world system, chiefly in the name of outsiders’ “energy security”. The results are yet deeper disadvantages, and discontent, among most Angolans. Looking ahead the authors note ways by which civil activists, journalists and scholars within and outside Angola can build on earlier advances to renounce economic dead-ends and disabled democracy where fossil fuel extraction dominates under the ever-larger shadow of climate catastrophe.</span></p>]]></description>

    <title>Movimentos Sociais Urbanos em Moçambique. O radicalismo político depois da morte de Azagaia</title>
    <description><![CDATA[
      <p class="resume"><span xml:lang="pt" lang="pt">No Moçambique urbano os protestos violentos de 2008 e 2010 constituíram a derradeira manifestação pública contra o governo liderado pela Frelimo. Entretanto, novos movimentos sociais foram formados depois e a partir da morte do rapper Azagaia, acontecida a 9 de março de 2023. O movimento novo, “Povo no Poder”, propôs uma visão e uma organização diferente, reticular, e que se ligou a algumas figuras dos partidos da oposição, por ocasião das eleições autárquicas de 11 de outubro de 2023.

    <title>Authoritarian Populism under Former Liberation Movements in Southern Africa</title>
    <description><![CDATA[
      <p class="resume"><span xml:lang="en" lang="en">Former liberation movements, who replaced white minority regimes in Southern Africa with the support of an international solidarity movement, have in retrospective failed to meet the expectations, also measured against what they had promised. The transition towards majority rule paved the way for a new elite project, with less benefits for the ordinary people than originally hoped for. This article takes critically stock of what can be considered as the limits to liberation. It seeks to explain the context and legacy of the struggle for self-determination when it comes to the failures of true emancipation. </span></p>]]></description>

    <title>Agostinho Neto: The MPLA's alchemist, between a rock and a hard place</title>
    <description><![CDATA[
      <p class="resume"><span xml:lang="en" lang="en">In contrast with a long track record of historical-political analysis that has resisted accepting interpretations based on the ability of post-colonial political systems in Africa to follow their own historical “homegrown” experience, and according to its elites’ agency to pursue its own goals, this paper takes the Angolan case to expose how the administration of the first president, Agostinho Neto, was able to structure on its own terms, assimilating and accommodating domestic and external constraints. It is here analysed how Agostinho Neto’s administration ended up adhering to socialism and to a left-wing rhetoric, while breeding a right-wing praxis in terms of political economy, political management and foreign policy. As we will see, such an achievement is even more astonishing if we consider the extremely constraining domestic and international context.</span></p>]]></description>

    <title>Introduction</title>
    <description><![CDATA[
      <p class="texte"><span xml:lang="en" lang="en">The political transition processes of the 1990s in Mozambique and Angola came short of expectations in terms of promoting effective pluralism and democratisation. Within a long historical tradition of authoritarianism, violence and autocratic rule, from the colonial period through the anti-colonial struggle and the so-called socialist single party period, former single parties won elections and retained power, re-legitimising (domestically and internationally) their autocratic and authoritarian governance and hegemony. With an outstanding resilience, these regimes and elites adapted their post-independence logics and power reproduction dynamics to the new multiparty electoral process, subverting liberal democratic procedures and integrity to their strategies (as exposed in the paper of Luca Bussotti) and in sequence with long-time (since independence) hegemonic projects, despite any official ideologies or models (as exposed in the paper of Nuno de Fragoso Vidal related to the admini...</span></p>]]></description>
