Abstract:
ABSTRACTThis paper investigates a paradoxical case of business success in one of the world's worst-governed states, Angola. Founded in 1976 as the essential tool of the Angolan end of the oil business, Sonangol, the national oil company, was from the very start protected from the dominant (both predatory and centrally planned) logic of Angola's political economy. Throughout its first years, the pragmatic senior management of Sonangol accumulated technical and managerial experience, often in partnership with Western oil and consulting firms. By the time the ruling party dropped Marxism in the early 1990s, Sonangol was the key domestic actor in the economy, an island of competence thriving in tandem with the implosion of most other Angolan state institutions. However, the growing sophistication of Sonangol (now employing thousands of people, active in four continents, and controlling a vast parallel budget of offshore accounts and myriad assets) has not led to the benign developmental outcomes one would expect from the successful ‘capacity building’ of the last thirty years. Instead, Sonangol has primarily been at the service of the presidency and its rentier ambitions. Amongst other themes, the paper seeks to highlight the extent to which a nominal ‘failed state’ can be successful amidst widespread human destitution, provided that basic tools for elite empowerment (in this case, Sonangol and the means of coercion) exist to ensure the viability of incumbents.

Abstract:
AbstractIn 1957, the security force of Angola's colonial diamond mining company recruited African diviners to help them solve a case of diamond theft in Lunda. This event reveals a peculiar convergence of divinatory practices with techniques of corporate surveillance in Lunda's political economy of security. In their overlapping features of secrecy and control, divination and corporate security can be understood as historically aligned evidentiary practices, or what I call “corporate divination.” By examining divinatory rituals in tandem with the “occult” apparatus of corporate surveillance, and the figure of a colonial sorcerer-detective renowned for his “divinatory” prowess, I ask how such seemingly opposed modes of knowledge production eroded or shored up colonial rule. The cultural significance of divination within the context of a mining company, I suggest, exposes the conditions under which a colonial corporation appropriates the social world in which it intervenes, and conversely, the cultural resources that potentially shape or undermine corporate life in a colonial context.

Abstract:
Este artigo analisa as implicações diversas em torno das disputas pela hegemonia política em Angola, basicamente após sua independência em 1975. No período anterior a este processo, organizações e partidos políticos compostos e dirigidos por diferentes elites angolanas disputavam o poder do Estado na tentativa de inaugurar uma nova fase em termos de construção da soberania e dos destinos da nação angolana. O autor argumenta que tais tentativas, por mais legítimas que tenham sido, na realidade invertiam de maneira elitista e subordinada a trajetória histórica que Angola, enquanto nação independente e desejosa de mudança na geopolítica continental e internacional, almejava fazer. As recentes disputas internas entre as forças políticas do país prejudicam a construção de um projeto nacional e deixam de lado a grande parte do povo angolano. Com o término da disputa inscrita pela Guerra Fria, Angola perde sua importância enquanto nação estratégica e se transforma em peça do joguete internacional orquestrado pelos EUA. Dessa forma, a efetivação de uma democracia que envolva as aspirações populares torna-se hoje a tarefa mais importante para a consolidação de uma inclusão positiva de Angola na política internacional

Abstract:
This article examines the new wave of Portuguese migration to Luanda in the first decade after Angola's civil war, a time characterised by extensive economic growth and shifting economic prospects in Angola. It frames Portuguese–Angolan relations in contemporary Angola, relations that are sometimes portrayed as amicable and influenced by a common brotherhood, as multifaceted. This article distinguishes different social, cultural, and historic interpretations of this migration and investigates how such interpretations influence people's relations, identities, feelings, and personal understandings of the social, political, and historic contexts that people confront on a daily basis in contemporary Luanda, a capital city where “colonial encounters in postcolonial contexts” have increasingly become everyday occurrences. It argues that at the intersections of Angolan and Portuguese contact in Angola, new configurations of power are being produced and reproduced against the backdrop of its colonial history and Lusotropicalist myths, where colonial and postcolonial inequalities, as well as economic opportunities, are brought to the fore in both Angolan and Portuguese imaginaries.

Abstract:
Com esse artigo – aliando os métodos qualitativo e quantitativo de pesquisa – analisamos a relação comercial bilateral sino-angolana – China-Angola – hodierna com enfoque na questão do petróleo. Como parte de um panorama econômico globalizado, buscamos identificar as assimetrias nessa relação à luz do esquema “Prebichiano” de Centro-Periferia” – elaborado pelo economista Raúl Prebisch no século passado –. A China, um país emergente – em desenvolvimento – (ou já de Centro para alguns pensadores), tem de fato uma economia pujante com uma capilaridade ainda complexa de dimensionar. Enquanto Angola é um país que ainda pode ser conceituado – sob vários aspectos – “subdesenvolvido” (ou seja, um país periférico). Esse artigo pode também ser concebido como mais um passo para entender o que a China almeja econômica, é claro, – mas também politicamente do restante do Continente Africano, do mundo e do Brasil –. Ensejando possibilidades de pesquisar especificamente as relações da China com outros países africanos lusófonos, tais como: Moçambique (fornecedor de madeira para os chineses) e Cabo Verde (fornecedor de pescados para os chineses). Por fim, procuramos extrair das relações comerciais bilaterais sino-angolanas, breves lições para o comércio bilateral sino-brasileiro – China-Brasil – já que a China é hoje o nosso maior parceiro econômico. With this article - combining the qualitative and quantitative research methods - we analyze the Sino-Angolan - China-Angola - bilateral trade relationship today focusing on the oil issue. As part of a globalized economic landscape, we seek to identify asymmetries in this relationship in light of the “Prebichian” Center-Periphery scheme” - elaborated by economist Raúl Prebisch in the last century -. China, an emerging developing country (or already a Center for some thinkers), has indeed a thriving economy with a capillarity that is still complex to scale. While Angola is a country that can still be conceptualized - in many ways - “underdeveloped” (ie a peripheral country). This article can also be conceived as a further step in understanding what China wants economically, of course - but also politically from the rest of the African continent, the world and Brazil -. As a possibility to investigate specifically China's relations with other Lusophone African countries, such as: Mozambique (Chinese wood supplier) and Cape Verde (Chinese fish supplier). Finally, we seek to draw from Sino-Angolan bilateral trade relations, brief lessons for Sino-Brazilian bilateral trade - China-Brazil - as China is today our largest economic partner.

Abstract:
The sense of mystery around Chinese presences in Angola impels researchers to understand not only the empirical details of economic transactions and diplomatic partnerships but also the various ways in which the actors involved make sense of a novel social, political, and economic configuration. By drawing several ethnographic portraits of the social practices and discursive strategies at play in Chinese–Angolan relations, I show how, in a context of mutual uncertainty and suspicion, appeals to “security” play a central role. Instead of viewing Chinese and Angolans as two separate groups with opposed interests and lack of communication between them, I explore how participation in a shared context generates common modes of explanation. Moreover, I propose a parallel analysis of state-level negotiations alongside everyday social encounters to consider how a political economic partnership between China and Angola is lived through the everyday negotiations of Chinese and Angolan residents in Luanda.

Abstract:
Sharing similar colonial and postindependence civil war experiences, Mozambique’s and Angola’s development paths are often contrasted, with foreign aid–dependent Mozambique hailed a success compared to oil-rentier Angola. This article questions the so-called Mozambican miracle and revisits Angola’s trajectory over the past two decades. Paying attention to ruling parties and postwar political economy transitions, we discuss differences and similarities in postconflict reconstruction paths, policy, and institutional fragility. We suggest that large aid flows to Mozambique have contributed to a relaxation of its government’s urgency in creating the financial structure capable of capturing rents from natural resources in contrast to Angola, where the relative absence of official development aid has led Angolan elites to seek tenure prolongation partly through high rent capture and incipient socialization of massive oil rents. We conclude by discussing the likely consequences of these factors in terms of the relative “fragility” and “robustness” of both states, and by discussing the implications for foreign assistance.

Mestrado em Ciências Empresariais
A queda do preço petróleo, em finais de 2014, trouxe consequências políticas, sociais e económicas graves, sobretudo para a economia angolana. O país tem atravessado um período muito turbulento, passando por uma crise política com repercussão internacional e, sobretudo, por uma crise económica causada pela redução das receitas do petróleo exportado, que se refletiu em menos disponibilidade financeira do Governo, deixando o país perante uma inflação galopante e uma forte desvalorização do kwanza. Assim sendo, o principal objetivo desta dissertação é analisar a perceção dos empresários angolanos sobre a importância de alguns fatores de constrangimento à sua atividade no seguimento da queda do preço do petróleo. Para tal, foi recolhida, através de um questionário, informação de 70 empresários angolanos, de várias províncias do país e de diversas áreas de atividade. Os resultados obtidos permitiram concluir que, na perspetiva destes agentes económicos, os principais fatores que agravaram a crise económica em Angola naquele contexto foram: a pouca diversidade do setor económico, a corrupção, a crise cambial/disponibilidade de divisas e desvalorização do kwanza.
A drop in oil prices, by the end of 2014, has brought serious political, social and economical consequences, especially for the Angolan economy. The country has suffered a very turbulent period, going through a political crisis with an international repercussion and, particularly, through an economical crisis caused by the reduction of exported oil (petroleum). This reduction resulted in less financial availability of the government, which left the country in a rampant inflation and a strong devaluation of Kwanza. Therefore, the main objective of this dissertation is to analyze the perception of Angolan businessmen about the importance of some constraining factors to their activity following the drop in oil prices. To do so, it was collected, through a questionnaire, information of 70 Angolan businessmen, from various provinces of the country and from diverse areas of activity. The results obtained allowed to conclude that, in the perspective of these economical agents, the main factors for the aggravation of the economical crisis in Angola in that context were: the little diversity of the economical sector, corruption, foreign exchange/ currency availability and devaluation of Kwanza.

Mestrado em Desenvolvimento e Cooperação Internacional
O principal objetivo desta dissertação é identificar e compreender a imagem que a imprensa portuguesa constrói sobre Angola, os angolanos e as relações com Portugal. Foi feita uma análise documental às notícias de quatro jornais publicadas entre 2008 e 2015. Os principais temas identificados foram: cooperação, economia e migrações. Portugal foi sempre um dos principais parceiros da cooperação para o desenvolvimento das suas ex-colónias mas com o crescimento económico de algumas, neste caso Angola, começou-se a assistir a mudanças nessa relação, as notícias recolhidas mostram que Portugal e Angola aumentaram as suas dinâmicas comerciais. Entre 2008 e 2015 a relação de Portugal e Angola caracterizou-se pelas intensivas trocas comerciais e os investimentos angolanos em Portugal. A imprensa portuguesa começou a aumentar o número de notícias que publicava sobre Angola a partir de 2007/2008 o que permitiu a construção de uma imagem sobre Angola, os angolanos e as relações com Portugal. Sobre Angola a imagem construída pela imprensa divide-se em dois blocos, entre 2008 e 2013, foi vista como um país que beneficiou Portugal, um parceiro comercial, um investidor. Entre 2013 e 2015, Angola começa a ter problemas económicos devido à quebra das receitas petrolíferas e a imagem construída modifica-se, a crise financeira e económica associam-se ao país africano. Sobre as relações de Portugal e Angola as notícias mostram que as principais características são uma balança comercial muito ativa e os investimentos angolanos em Portugal. A imagem construída sobre os angolanos está ligada à riqueza e ao poder económico.
The main objective of this dissertation is to identify and understand the image that the Portuguese press builds on Angola, Angolans and relations with Portugal. A documentary analysis was made of the news from four newspapers published between 2008 and 2015. The main themes identified were: cooperation, economy and migration. Portugal has always been one of the main partners of cooperation for the development of their former colonies but with the economic growth of some, in this case Angola, we began to watch changes in this relationship, the news collected show that Portugal and Angola have intensified their commercial dynamics. Between 2008 and 2015 the relationship between Portugal and Angola was characterized by intensive trade and Angolan investment in Portugal. Portuguese press began to increase the number of news published on Angola in 2007/2008 which allowed the construction of an image of Angola, Angolan and relations with Portugal. About Angola, the image constructed by the press is divided into two blocks, between 2008 and 2013, was seen as a country that benefited Portugal, a commercial partner, an investor. Between 2013 and 2015, Angola begins to have economic problems due to the fall in oil revenues and the built image changes, the financial and economic crisis are associated with the African country. On the relations between Portugal and Angola the news shows that the main characteristics are a very active trade balance and the Angolan investments in Portugal. The image built on the Angolans is linked to richness and economic power.

O objetivo principal desta dissertação é analisar a base que sustenta o crescimento econômico em Angola, abordando os principais gargalos existentes nesse processo e as potenciais oportunidades a serem aproveitadas, visando promover o desenvolvimento socioeconômico do país. Apresenta-se uma revisão teórica sobre o tema do desenvolvimento econômico, levando em consideração a estrutura econômica subdesenvolvida de Angola. Ademais, situase historicamente a economia angolana, fazendo-se uma análise da formação econômica de Angola até o cenário atual. A partir das observações das teorias de desenvolvimento econômico, da estrutura histórica da economia angolana e de um levantamento bibliográfico dos relatórios de agências internacionais sobre a economia do país, determinam-se os principais gargalos que ameaçam o forte crescimento econômico atual de Angola. Além disso, especificam-se as principais oportunidades para que a economia possa deixar o estado de subdesenvolvimento socioeconômico e trilhar, em um futuro próximo, o desenvolvimento socioeconômico.

This thesis focuses on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Angola and on constraints encountered by investors. It discusses the new Investment Law, resulting from a comprehensive law reform in 2003, as well as investment incentives destined to attract FDI into the territory, furthermore: the legal definitions of FDI and of “Investor”; the Angolan private international law; the main constraints (investment barriers) encountered by investors, after and before entering the Angolan territory; the legal protection afforded to investors, and some examples of FDI and their implications in Angola. The author also analyses investment and intra-trade within the Sub-Saharan region, Angola under modes 3 and 4 of GATS, and other aspects of foreign (as well as private) investment, including on what has been done and what should still be achieved under the SADC Trade, Finance and Investment Protocol from 2005 onwards. This analysis, it is hoped, will contribute to the better understanding of the implications and benefits of FDI in Angola, considering the recent increase of inflows of FDI, as well, as to what extent and how the Government should continue to control and direct, as well as encourage FDI. To conclude, the impact (positive -negative) of FDI in the Angolan society, economy and for the environment will be discussed. Together with the chapters describing the legal framework for FDI, these parts are intended to provide a better insight into the legal, economic and social background for investing and for doing business in Angola, and what type of protection investors can expect from the country, whilst information and academic materials on this subject matter continue to be scarce and difficult to access.

O presente trabalho, cujo tema reflecte uma pesquisa sobre a percepção do crescimento económico de Angola Pós-Independência, teve como objectivo geral identificar e avaliar os factores considerados explicativos desse crescimento económico, nomeadamente, o contributo do petróleo e dos diamantes. Para a sua realização foi adoptada uma metodologia de investigação de tipo qualitativo, com recurso pesquisa documental e à entrevista a especialistas como técnica de recolha de dados primários. A análise da informação foi realizada em função do objectivo de estudo por meio de análise dos conteúdos. Os resultados demonstram que embora os sectores petrolífero e diamantífero sejam de capital importância para o crescimento económico, há que ter em conta o modelo e qualidade de governação do estado e das instituições e as políticas adoptadas para garantir a provisão de serviços públicos para os mais carenciados e para orientar o processo de desenvolvimento económico e social, garantindo a observância das normas e princípios fundamentais e a melhoria dos indicadores. Apesar das dificuldades e limitações da pesquisa, seja pela qualidade da informação estatística e documental recolhida, muitas vezes contraditória em função da fonte considerada, seja pela falta de experiência de investigação e falta de disponibilidade dos entrevistados, os resultados encontrados permitem retirar algumas conclusões assim como sugerir orientações e pistas de pesquisa futura; ABSTRACT: This study, exploring the perception of the economic growth in Angola, post-independency, aimed identifying and assessing the factors considered to explain such economic growth, in particular, the contribution of oil and diamonds.

The data analysis was performed according to the purpose of the study by analyzing the contents. Results show that although the oil and diamond sectors are of crucial importance for economic growth. But it must take into account the style and quality of state governance and public institutions governance and the policies adopted to ensure the provision of public services to the poorest and to guide the process of economic and social development, ensuring compliance with standards and fundamental principles and indicators improved.

A tese do Prof. Solival Menezes ocupa-se de analisar alguns aspectos da economia e da sociedade de Angola que, sob uma perspectiva lógica e histórica, permitem compreender a dinâmica que caracterizou a trajetória recente desse novo Estado nacional desde que, tornando-se liberto do colonialismo tardio português (em 1975), transformou-se em uma economia centralmente planejada até ser conduzido, posteriormente (pelos motivos examinados na tese), ao reencontro da economia de mercado e da democracia (em 1992). São examinadas algumas especificidades do longo colonialismo praticado em seu território visando a compreender de que modo a condição de economia dependente da metrópole se transferiu como legado ao novo país, condicionando os anos iniciais de sua fase soberana.
This thesis analyzes some aspects of the economy and society of Angola that, from a logical and historic perspective, can help understand the dynamics that characterized the recent trajectory of this new state, since, becoming free of the \"late Portuguese colonialism\" (in 1975), became a \"centrally planned economy\" until to be conducted later (for the reasons discussed in the thesis) to a market economy with democracy (in 1992). There are examined some characteristics of the Portuguese colonialism practiced throughout Angolas history in order to understand how the condition of the metropolis dependent economy was transferred as a legacy to the new country, thereby affecting the early years of its sovereign stage.

Os resultados indicam que as variáveis são não estacionárias e não existe relação de longo-prazo entre as mesmas. Existe apenas relação de curto-prazo, os testes de causalidade a Granger invalidam a lei de Wagner e validam a teoria de Keynes.

O estudo utiliza dados para o período 1999-2012 e os resultados sugerem que a atual escolha de ligação da moeda angolana ao dólar norte-americano é a mais adequada. A segunda melhor opção seria a moeda da África do Sul, país que também participa neste projeto de integração e relativamente ao qual tem havido convergência real com a economia angolana; Analysis of Alternative for Monetary Anchors for Angolan Economy Abstract: In this thesis we analyze five possible monetary anchors for the Angolan economy in its transition to a scenario of complete monetary union in the context of the Sothern African Development Community (SADC): the American dollar, the euro, the sterling pound, the Japanese yen and South African rand. The empirical analysis follows the methodology proposed by Bayoumi and Eichengreen (1997), which operationalized the theory of optimum currency areas by creating an index that allows comparing the probability of success of alternative monetary integration projects. The study uses data for the period 1999-2012 and the results suggest that the current choice of connecting the Angola currency to the US dollar is the most appropriate. The second best option would be the currency of South Africa, a country that also participates in this project of economic and monetary integration and for which there has been real convergence with the Angolan economy.

Mestrado em Métodos Quantitativos para a Decisão Económica e Empresarial
O presente estudo contribui para o conhecimento da relação existente entre o petróleo e o desempenho económico de Angola. A componente teórica desta dissertação faz uma revisão da literatura sobre estudos acerca da relação entre o petróleo e o desempenho económico de países específicos ou grupos de países. É também feito um estudo da evolução económica de Angola, bem como as alterações verificadas nos indicadores económicos do país, face às alterações registadas na atividade petrolífera. Foram utilizadas observações anuais para o período [1990-2015]. Estimou-se um modelo de regressão linear que relacionou a variável dependente Produto Interno Bruto (PIB), com as duas variáveis independentes principais, nomeadamente, o preço e a producão de petróleo, e algumas variáveis de controlo, tais como a taxa de câmbio, exportações e inflação. De forma a garantir a validade deste modelo, foram testadas as hipóteses clássicas e assintóticas do Ordinary Least Squares (OLS). Foi ainda testada a cointegração Engle-Granger entre as variáveis de interesse. Conclui-se através do modelo inicial, da sua significância estatística e coeficientes, que existe uma relação positiva e significativa entre o preço e produção do petróleo e o PIB de Angola. Após realizados todos os testes, verifica-se que o modelo estimado é dinamicamente completo e que a sua inferência estatística é válida, entretanto não pode ser usado para interpretações mais detalhadas, uma vez que, após serem aplicadas as transformações necessárias, o modelo perde capacidade preditiva.
This study contributes for the knowledge of the relationship between oil prices and Angolan economic growth. The theoretical section of the present dissertation does a literature review regarding previous studies about specific countries or groups of countries. Furthermore, a study about the Angolan economic evolution, as well as the changes in the country's macroeconomic indicators towards the changes in oil activity, was also conducted. The study relies on annual data for the period between 1990 and 2015. A linear regression model was estimated to make a connection between the dependent variable Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the main variables oil price and production and the control variables, such as real exchange rate, export and inflation. To assure the quality of the model the Classical and Asymptotic OLS properties were tested. Engle-Granger cointegration was also tested between the dependent and the main variables. The thesis concludes that the initial model itself and its statistics, shows a long-term relationship between the variables. The findings show that the estimated model is dynamically complete and its statistics inferences are valid, even though the model cannot be used for further conclusions, because of the loss of the variables information during the tests.

Abstract:
Multiple oil discoveries reveal the global scale and economic importance of a distinctive reservoir type composed of possible microbial lacustrine carbonates like the Lower Cretaceous pre-salt reservoirs in deepwater offshore Brazil and Angola. Marine microbialite reservoirs are also important in the Neoproterozoic to lowest Cambrian starta of the South Oman Salt Basin as well as large Paleozoic deposits including those in the Caspian Basin of Kazakhstan (e.g., Tengiz field), and the Cedar Creek Anticline fields and Ordovician Red River “B” horizontal play of the Williston Basin in Montana and North Dakota, respectively. Evaluation of the various microbial fabrics and facies, associated petrophysical properties, diagenesis, and bounding surfaces are critical to understanding these reservoirs. Utah contains unique analogs of microbial hydrocarbon reservoirs in the modern Great Salt Lake and the lacustrine Tertiary (Eocene) Green River Formation (cores and outcrop) within the Uinta Basin of northeastern Utah. Comparable characteristics of both lake environments include shallowwater ramp margins that are susceptible to rapid widespread shoreline changes, as well as compatible water chemistry and temperature ranges that were ideal for microbial growth and formation/deposition of associated carbonate grains. Thus, microbialites in Great Salt Lake and from the Green River Formation exhibit similarities in terms of the variety of microbial textures and fabrics. In addition, Utah has numerous examples of marine microbial carbonates and associated facies that are present in subsurface analog oil field cores.
