Movimentos sociais: o papel do fórum dos Madjermanes na implementação de estratégias políticas para salvaguardar os seus interesses

Abstract

This study is concerned with the role of the Madjerman forum in the formulation and implementation of political strategies to claim their rights. The problem raised is related to the fact that we observe that despite the collective action of the Madjermanes their interests have not been satisfied. Therefore, we aim to understand the collective action of the Madjermanes and its influence on the agenda of the government and the decision- making structure in formulating and implementing policy strategies to satisfy their rights. We adopted a qualitative approach, monographic procedure and semi-structured interviews. The main results are, the Madjermanes do not influence the agenda of the government and the decision-making structure in the formulation and implementation of policy strategies to satisfy their interests because they do not have support from groups or people with the power to coerce the government to make decisions in their favour
