Abstract

The civil war that ravaged the country brought with it changes in the ways in which the population is distributed across space. New factors were taken into account in the resettlement process. The present work was carried out in the district of Milane, province of Zambézia and its main objective is to analyze the factors that influence the current pattern of distribution and spacial of the population in the district; it equally embroiders the characteristics of the population and settlement in the district and, finally, it makes a small approach on the migratory movements. A variety of methods were used, from literature review, semi-structured and informal interviews, cartographic, statistical and direct observation whenever the variable under study was observable. The results show that the spatial differentiation of the population in Milange district is influenced by a variety of factors, highlighting the political-historical, socio-economic and physical-natural factors; the importance of each is relative and varies from place to place; the district population tends to be distributed in a dispersed way.(TRADUÇÁO NOSSA)
