Abstract

The present work is entitled: “Bairro Magude”, the emergence and establishment of blocks 23-27 of the Urbanização neighborhood (1988-2000). The study of this neighborhood has as main objective to provide a basis for the understanding of the social history of the war in Mozambique, but above all, very in particular, to leave a written contribution on the history of the emergence of the “Magude neighborhood”. The work consists of four chapters: In the introductory chapter, we present the objectives, the problems and hypotheses, the methodology used, definition of some concepts and the bibliographic review. The second chapter highlights some aspects of the war and its consequences. Next, we focus on the history of the formation of the neighborhood and its consequent occupation by the displaced populations. In the third chapter we highlight aspects related to the organization and infrastructure in the community, its functioning and the survival strategies developed by these populations. Where we outline some of these strategies such as the practice of agriculture, small informal commerce and the different solidarity networks developed in this community. Finally, in chapter four, we present the final considerations of our work, as well as the bibliography and annexes (TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
