Full textAbstract:
In 132 rabbits belonging to the Cunicola La Esperanza Farm of the city of El Alto in the department of La Paz, the principle physical characteristics of the angora rabbit fiber were determined in a period of 3 shearings. As such they were organized into 2 groups, clearly differentiated by their sex (female and male). The obtained fiber of the different shearings were weighed in order to determine the performance of each animal and subsequently analyzed the wool in the Experimental Station of Patacamaya, where they determined the diameter, length of hair and marrow composition. The results were subjected to a statistical analysis with the help of the SAS program. The effects of the principle studied factors (sex, age, number of shearing) showed highly significant differences (p<0.01). The fiber yields for males and females were 70.76 and 81.72 g respectively; as such the fiber yields of 57.77, 82.91, 84.28, 80.01, 71.36, 81.11 and 76.25 g for those under the age of 1 year, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and first shearing, second shearing, third shearings respectively. The age of the animals and the number of shearings were the principle causes of the variation of the performance of the fiber. The male rabbits obtained 13.10 microns in diameter, 56.10% of marrow composition and 4.10 cm of length, and the female rabbits 13.91 microns of diameter, 65.34% of marrow composition y 4.23 cm of length, being the effect of the sex most highly significant (p<0.01). The fineness of fiber of the animals was 12.80, 13.07, 14.28 y 13.88 microns respectively for the ages younger than 1 year, 1 year, 2 years and 3 years, a marrow composition of 57.68, 60.54, 60.56 y 64.10%, for the same ages, observing among themselves highly significant differences (p<0.01); except in the variability of the length of the hair. In animals subjected to different numbers of shearing they obtained 13.48, 13.37 and 13.67 microns for the first, second and third shearings respectively and a bone composition of 59.28, 62.32 y 60.56%, observing minimum numerical differences, but not statistical, as in the length of hair.

Full textAbstract:
The effects of age and plane of nutrition on the body and carcass composition and mohair fibre yield and quality of British Angora wether goats slaughtered at six, 12, 18 and 24 months of age were investigated. Carcass yield, composition and conformation improved with increasing age and plane of nutrition. Greasy fleece weight also increased with increasing age and plane of nutrition but fibre quality declined since the increase in mass was achieved by means of increased fibre diameter with no effect of age or plane of nutrition on the fibre elongation rate. There was a constant relationship between the increase in fibre diameter with age and fleece mass which was not affected by plane of nutrition. Similarly there was no significant effect of plane of nutrition on the relationships between fibre diameter and the weight of various body and carcass components. A strong relationship between fibre diameter and the weight of fat in the body or carcass suggested that the increase in fibre diameter with age of the goat was influenced by cumulative feed intake rather than by fat-free body size. The allometric growth patterns of the body and carcass of the Angora goat conformed with the patterns established for other domestic species, with early maturity of the external offal and vital organs, later maturity of the carcass and body fat, and a centripetal pattern of development. There was no effect of plane of nutrition on the allometric growth patterns of the fat-free body or carcass, but decreasing the plane of nutrition resulted in a uniform retardation of all body parts and carcass tissues and a significant effect on the relative growth rate of body and carcass fat. Regression equations were formulated to predict the half carcass composition of Angora wether goats using sample joint dissection data. The most accurate predictions were achieved with data from the leg and the best end of neck combined in multiple regression equations. A second experiment to investigate the effects of long term undernutrition followed by realimentation on the growth rate and composition of empty body weight gain revealed no evidence of compensatory liveweight gain in the Angora goat.

Full textAbstract:
Climate change is predicted to have a negative effect on the rangelands of sub-Saharan Africa, affecting the distribution, productivity and extent of these rangelands. Similarly, Subtropical Thicket vegetation in the Eastern Cape, South Africa is expected to experience a reduction in plant growth with conditions becoming similar to those experienced under desertification. The transformation of thicket results in a decrease in perennial plant species cover and richness, which is replaced by an ephemeral layer of grasses and forbs. Assessing the responses of herbivores to this transformation thus allows the testing of the hypothesis that climate change and desertification will lead to a broadening of diet and a decline in secondary productivity. In this study, the diet and productivity of Angora goats in intact and transformed thicket in adjacent paddocks was investigated from August 2005 to July 2006. Faecal analysis was used to compare the diets of the Angora goats in the intact and transformed thicket treatments. Goats in the transformed treatment consumed a higher diversity of plant species (94 species) compared to those in the intact thicket (42 species). The higher species richness per faecal sample and the larger seasonal variation in plant species utilized by the goats in the transformed treatment reflected the variability of this treatment in response to rainfall. Dietary shifts to include less palatable species not found in the intact treatment diet were clear, but due to the high rainfall year an abundant ephemeral layer, comprising grasses and forbs, was available in the transformed treatment. The diet quality of the transformed treatment goats was higher, as indexed by faecal lignin, than the intact treatment goats, although there was no statistical difference in the NDF and ash levels between the treatments. There was however, more variation in the nutritional quality of the transformed thicket diet, as indexed by dietary phosphorous, showing that intact thicket retains a more constant nutritional level. There was no difference in the body condition and mohair production of the goats in the two treatments. The hypothesis of broadening of the diet was thus supported, but there was no evidence for the predicted decline in secondary productivity. This study was undertaken during an above average rainfall period and large quantities of nutritious ephemeral grasses were available in the transformed treatment. This resource would not be available in a drought; therefore goats in the intact thicket will likely perform better over longer periods; providing stocking rates are realistic. This is the first study to measure the response of domestic herbivores to transformation either in terms of resource use or production.

L'objectif de ce travail est de contribuer a la definition d'un programme d'amelioration genetique de la chevre angora en argentine. Tout d'abord, nous avons analyse les donnees collectees depuis 15 ans sur un troupeau experimental afin d'etudier les effets du milieu et estimer les composantes de la variance sur les caracteres de la toison a partir de la premiere tonte : le poids de la toison (gfw), le diametre moyen des fibres (afd), la proportion de fibres medullees (mf) et le poids de la toison corrige (cgfw). Les composantes de la variance directes et maternelles ont ete estimees a l'aide d'un modele animal et des procedures dfreml. Differents modeles ont ete testes, mais il apparait que les effets maternels (genetiques et de l'environnement permanent) peuvent etre ignores. Les heritabilites estimees sont de 0,26, 0,33, 0,10 et 0,22 pour gfw, afd, mf et cgfw, respectivement. Ensuite a l'aide de simulations, nous avons teste differentes strategies de gestion d'une petite population sur l'evolution de la consanguinite et du progres genetique : division du noyau en groupes d'accouplements avec rotation circulaire des males, en faisant varier le mode d'accouplement, la proportion et le taux de renouvellement des males. Les resultats confirment l'interet de la division du noyau en groupes d'accouplements pour limiter l'accroissement de la consanguinite sans affecter la reponse genetique, mais l'efficacite de cette strategie depend des autres facteurs utilises, en particulier le systeme d'accouplements et la strategie de renouvellement de males.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is to analyse the effects of gated communities in the increasing fragmentation of urban space and in the increasing polarisation among different classes in the Turkish context, more specifically in the capital, Ankara.
Since the case study is based on an upper-middle class suburban gated community, first, suburbanisation &ldquoas a wave of urbanisation&rdquo
is analysed. Then, the debates about the middle class and the transformation that this social stratum has undergone are discussed. Later, the formation of gated communities around the world and in Turkey are analysed within the general framework of the transformation of the urban sphere. Finally, the theoretical arguments are scrutinised by incorporating the findings of the case study carried out in Angora Houses. In this study Angora Houses is concluded to be a gated community which is &ldquo
fortified&rdquo
for the preservation of an upper-middle class lifestyle rather than for security concerns and which reproduces socio-spatial inequalities among Ankaraites rather than standing as only the expression of them.

South Africa is the world’s largest mohair-producing country, contributing over 50% of the world’s
mohair, and therefore genetic improvement of Angora goats in South Africa is imperative in order to
maintain this position in the market and the quality of the mohair clip. Pedigree integrity is vital for the
success of any breeding programme. DNA parentage testing has become a useful tool in amending
inaccuracies in on-farm records of various species. Previous studies have determined that errors in
pedigree records may have a negative effect of up to 15% on genetic improvement in livestock. In the
current study the extent of incorrect paternity records was quantified in 381 South African Angora goats
using a panel of 12 microsatellite markers selected for parentage verification. 14.3% of the on-farm
records were missing or incorrect. The microsatellite marker panel had a CPE of 99.6%, PIC of 0.700 and
average HE of 0.738. Estimated Breeding Values for fleece traits (fibre diameter and fleece weight) and
body weights (birth weight, weaning weight, eight month weight, yearling weight and 16 month weight)
were estimated for 21 sires using ASREML, firstly using the breeder’s recorded pedigree and secondly
using the DNA marker-verified pedigree. Sires were ranked according to EBVs for each trait. The sires
ranked lowest in the breeder’s records for fibre diameter, birth weight and weaning weight were moved to
the top three ranks in the DNA verified pedigree. The ranking for fleece weight was not as severely
affected. The significant change in sire ranking after DNA pedigree verification confirms the importance
of pedigree integrity for selection accuracy in the South African Angora goat industry.Dissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2013.

Full textAbstract:
Dans cette thèse nous présentons une analyse d'une expérience de sélection divergente chez le lapin Angora français. Les objectifs de l'expérience étaient d'évaluer la réponse à la sélection pour le poids total de toison et pour les caractères corrélés et d'analyser une expérience de sélection sur une population conduite en générations chevauchantes. Nous présentons une vue d'ensemble des facteurs génétiques et non génétiques des caractères quantitatifs et qualitatifs influençant la production de fibre. Parmi des effets fixes, le numéro de récolte est le plus important. Les paramètres génétiques et les tendances génétiques ont été analysés en utilisant un BLUP appliqué à un modèle animal. Pour l'estimation des paramètres génétiques on a employé un modèle avec mesures répétées des mesures dans lequel les récoltes successives ont été considérées comme un caractère répété. Les résultats ont prouvé que la sélection pour le poids total de toison a été efficace et une divergence de trois écarts types génétiques a été observée entre les souches haute et basse après huit années de sélection. La sélection pour le poids total de toison a augmenté de manière significative la longueur de jarres et le rapport entre les nombre de follicules secondaires et primaires (rapport S/P). Dans le même temps, la compression, la résilience, le diamètre de duvets, et le diamètre moyen de fibre ont diminué. Ces changements s'expliquent par des corrélations génétiques moyennes à élevées entre le poids de toison et la longueur des jarres, et entre les dimensions de fibre et le rapport S/P, la compression et la résilience. Ainsi, la sélection pour augmenter le poids total de toison a induit une augmentation des composantes quantitatives et qualitatives de la production delaine du lapin Angora français. La mesure du poids total de toison est simple et facile au niveau de l’élevage. Cette thèse fournit également de nouveaux paramètres génétiques résultant des mesures par l'analyseur de diamètre de ibre optique (OFDA). Il s'agit d'une méthode rapide pour mesurer les caractéristiques de la fibre Angora. Certaines de ces mesures sont intéressantes en raison d'une corrélation génétique élevée avec les caractéristiques du follicule pileux. La méthodologie OFDA est une alternative intéressante pour évaluer des caractéristiques importantes telles que le diamètre de fibre et le coefficient de variation du diamètre des fibres. Nous décrivons les paramètres démographiques et généalogiques de la population étudiée. En outre, nous étudions la différentielle de sélection pour le poids total de toison et le poids corporel. La caractéristique principale de notre approche est la description de la différentielle de sélection en comparant les candidats à la sélection, les parents potentiels et les parents théoriques. La description démographique et génétique a prouvé que dans les deux souches sélectionnées on a appliqué pendant 8 ans une conduite proche. Notre travail apporte des résultats originaux sur les effets de la sélection chez le lapin angora et sur la conduite d'une sélection en générations chevauchantes. Cette thèse a aussi un intérêt pratique pour les sélectionneurs de lapin Angora. Cette thèse est également le dernier projet de recherche de l'INRA après presque 30 ans de recherche sur cet animalIn this thesis, we present our research to analyze the efficiency of an experiment of divergent selection in French Angora rabbit. Objectives of the experiment were a) to assess genetic parameter estimatesfor total fleece weight and correlated trait and b) to get an experience on management of a population of angora rabbits under selection with overlapping generations. This thesis is also the last research project of INRA after nearly 30 years of research on this animal. We present an overview of the genetic and non-genetic factors of quantitative and qualitative traits influencing fibre production. Among fixed effects, number of harvest was the most important. The genetic parameters and genetic trends were analysed using a BLUP animal model. For estimation of genetics parameters the repeatability model was used in which wool harvests from third until 12th have been considered as a repeated trait. Results showed that selection for high and low total fleece weight was successfully performed and a divergence of three genetic standard deviations was observed between the high and low lines after eight years of selection. Selection for total fleece weight significantly increased bristle length, secondary to primary follicle ratio and comfort factor and decreased compression, resilience, bristle diameter, and average fibre diameter. These changes resulted from moderate to high genetic correlations between total fleece weight and bristle length, and between fibre dimensions and secondary to primary follicle ratio, comfort factor, compression and resilience. Thus, selection for increasing total fleece weight results in an increase of both quantitative and qualitative traits of wool production in the French Angora rabbit. Measurement of total fleece weight is simple and easy at the farm level. Selection for this trait has positiveeffects on fleece characteristics such as bristle length, follicle population and fibre diameter. This thesis also contains new genetic parameters Angora fibres resulting from measurements by Optical Fibre Diameter Analyser that we provide a rapid method for measuring the characteristics of Angora fibre. Some of these measurements are interesting because of having a high genetic correlation with follicle traits of skin. The OFDA methodology is an interesting alternative to evaluate important characteristics such as fibre diameter, CV of fibre diameter and bristle content through measuring of comfort factor. We describe the demography and genealogy of the studied population. In addition, we study differential of selection for total fleece weight and body weight. The main characteristic of our approach is the use of new method for description of differential of selection in candidates of selection, parent and theoretical parents. Description of demography and the genetic structure in this study showed that in the two divergent lines, the similar management of reproducers has been done successfully during 8 years of selection. Our work contributes to the research in two areas that are estimation of genetic parameters with multivariate models of best linear unbiased prediction of breeding value and theoretical investigation of selection in populations with overlapping generations. This thesis is also of practical interest for Angora rabbit breeders for knowledge of effects of selection for total fleece weight and correlated traits

Major conclusions of each experiment are as follows:- Experiment 1: • Under experimental conditions described in Chapter 3 Cashmere and Angora goats, on average, exhibited similar values for LWG. • Differences between two genotypes were noted in superior values of apparent digestibility of DM and CP although there were lower values of nitrogen retention in Cashmere than Angora goats; this result suggested that nitrogen utilisation was more efficient in the Angora goats. • In response to dietary rumen-protected methionine, nitrogen retention and LWG were improved in both genotypes. However total fibre yield and diameter were increased only in the Angora goats. Experiment 2: • The supply of rumen-protected methionine increased the total weight and protein and water concentration of carcass and non-carcass components of Angora goats. • Methionine supply had no effect on the proportion of dietary nitrogen partitioned between mohair and other body components. • Dietary methionine supplementation changed the amino acid composition of mohair (increased cyst(e)ine and reduced phenylalanine) and muscle samples (increased methionine, phenylalanine and lysine) in addition to producing increases in total weight of mohair and LWG. Experiment 3: • The presence of both methionine and cyst(e)ine was required to support maximum growth of isolated anagen mohair and cashmere secondary hair follicles in vitro. • The presence of methionine, but not cyst(e)ine when methionine was present, was essential for maintaining growth and viability of isolated hair follicles of Angora and Cashmere goats. Experiment 4: • Epidermal growth factor (EGF) at low concentration (1 μg/l) increased DNA concentration, protein deposition and elongation in anagen mohair secondary hair follicles. • At high concentration (10 μg/l) EGF produced a club-hair like structure which was associated with stimulation of cell proliferation in outer root sheath and inhibition in matrix cells. These changes resembled those occurring in anagen to catagen transition.

This study was carried out in the Azafranal community of the Desaguadero municipality, which is in the Ingavi Province of the Department of La Paz. It was conducted at an altitude of 3350 meters above sea level at 16°20’00” south latitude and 69°00’00” west longitude. The study went from December 20, 2003 to June 20, 2004. Our objective was to evaluate hair production in angora rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) fed with three different rations of reed. The experimental trial was done at the Angorita farm over a 135 day period that was divided into three smaller periods of 45 days. The experiment was done via a completely randomized block design. The means from each treatment (A, B, C, and D) were analyzed by a Duncan test with a level of 95% confidence. The population consisted of 16 male and 16 female English angora rabbits between 90 and 98 days of age. These were divided into four groups of eight individuals. Each group was then subjected to one of four treatments: 1) ration A with 40% reed content, 2) ration B with 30% reed content, 3) ration C with 20% reed content, and 4) ration D as a control with 0% reed content. The variables measured and studied were: hair weight (g), hair diameter (µ), hair length (cm), and length of a lock of hair (cm). The results reflect a positive effect on hair diameter with rations C and A, which had average diameters of 9.48 µ and 9.64 µ respectively. Furthermore, with respect to hair length, ration A had an average of 4.87 cm and ration C had an average of 4.68 cm. Lastly, with respect to length of a lock of hair, ration A had an average of 4.74 cm and ration B had an average of 4.52 cm (P<0.05). Hair weight did not turn out to be significant, coming in with an average of 61.03 g (P>0.05).

A genetic study of four commercial goat breeds in South Africa was performed using microsatellite markers. The commercial breeds included the Boer goat, Savanna, Kalahari Red and the Angora goat. Indigenous goat populations from Delftzijl and Groblersdal were also included in this study. Seventeen microsatellite markers were tested to determine the genetic variation. Genetic variation within the breeds were relatively high with heterozygosity values ranging from 57% for the Boer goat, 68% for the Kalahari Red, 69% for the Savanna goats and 70% for the Angora goats. First values indicated that the Savanna and Boer goat are genetically the closest (0.114), while the Kalahari Red and Boer goat are the least related (0.237). Phenotypic measurements included height, length, depth, heart girth, pelvic length and width for a phenotypic description. Significant differences were observed in the phenotypic measurements among all the breeds. The genetic and phenotypic differences indicate that these goats can be distinguished as different breeds. Results of this study contribute genotypic information of the commercial goats in South Africa. CopyrightDissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2007.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims to analyze the emergence and evaluation of a new type of suburbanization in Türkiye, which are concomitant with the rise of new middle class having a high purchasing power. It examines different urbanization and suburbanization processes in various societies and demonstrates that the suburbanization of Tü
rkiye does not exactly fit in these models. Such a suburban expansion is taking place under the prevailing impact of political economy in the world and leads to a social segregation within metropolitan areas, which is argued to become permanent. Upper middle class have developed privatized, enclosed, and monitored exclusive spaces of residence, work, leisure, and consumption. The main focus of the study, therefore, is the gated communities, which is the last extension of suburbanization. In this thesis, the gated communities are mainly residential in character and offer a new concept of life-style, which is based upon the idea of total security and retreat from the illnesses of the urban core in terms of noise, dust, disorder, crowds and related issues. It is argued that, in the specific case of Angora Evleri-Kooperatif-18, gated communities can be viewed as a further theme of fragmentation of the city of Ankara. The new urban fragmentation indicates a dual process of increasing social and spatial polarization on the urban land. These dualities have been identified in society. One part of the society has experienced affluence, and success while the other has suffered degradation. The economic growth has been at the expense of sharp increases both at the top and bottom ends of the income distribution. Social inequality, in return, has manifested itself spatially.

Magister Legum - LLMThis 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 tem como objetivo refletir sobre o processo de assimilação imposto às populações do território angolano dos anos de 1950 e 1960 presente na obra literária Kinaxixe, de Arnaldo Santos, publicada em 1965, em Portugal, e em 1981, no Brasil. A obra de nove contos retrata a tensa convivência dos negros, mestiços e brancos nos musseques e bairros que circundam a costa luandense no auge da maior migração de brancos portugueses ao território angolano. Por meio de leis como o então recente Estatuto do Indigenato, de 1954 e o Acto Colonial, de 1933 acirram-se as diferenças sociais. Esse plano jurídico foi baseado em teorias darwinistas do século XIX e lido de maneira hierarquizante e subjugadora, separando as populações do território angolano como não civilizados ou assimilados, e fazendo dos portugueses, em oposição, supostamente, civilizados, aptos a colonizar as populações do território baseado, por isso, na suposta superioridade cultural e social.This present paper aims to study the assimilation process imposed on the populations of the Angolan territory in the 1950s and in the 1960s seen in the literary work Kinaxixe, by Arnaldo Santos, published in Lisbon, Portugal in 1965 and in Brazil, in 1981. The nine short stories reflect the tense coexistence among black people, mixed race people and white people in the musseques (slums) and neighborhoods that surround the coast of Luanda. At this time, the largest Portuguese migration to the African territory took place. Through some laws such as the Estatuto do Indigenato, from 1954 and the Acto Colonial, from 1933, the social differences were even more stimulated. These legal spheres were based on Darwinist theories from the 19th century read in a patriarchal repressive and classicist way separating the populations in non-civilized or assimilated making the Portuguese, on the other hand, supposedly, civilized. Therefore, according to these thoughts, the Portuguese were prepared to colonize the Angolan population through, also a supposed, cultural and social superiority.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Finanças.O comércio internacional é uma temática que vem fazendo parte das grandes abordagens internacionais devido à sua relevância e tem contribuído para que, gradativamente, ao longo dos tempos se venham aprimorando os mecanismos que garantam uma eficaz relação entre os estados, bem como normalizando e regulando os assuntos inerentes às trocas comerciais entre os países. A Pesquisa teve como objetivo central descrever e avaliar os impactos da imposição de barreiras ao comércio e a aplicação de pautas aduaneiras nos fluxos de importações e exportações angolanas. Trata-se de uma investigação essencialmente qualitativa, do tipo exploratório e descritivo. Procedeu-se a uma análise documental, onde foram selecionadas as bibliografias relevantes para a construção e embasamento do referido estudo, onde foram recolhidas informações e dados em instituições oficiais angolanas. O estudo mostrou que as barreiras que podem conduzir ao incentivo da produção nacional são diversas, sendo as mais utilizadas as tarifárias e as não tarifárias, com maior relevância e aplicabilidade das segundas, tendo em atenção o cenário atual que o país vive, bem como a posição estratégica que o mesmo ocupa dentro do continente africano e da SADC (Southern African Development Community) da qual o mesmo é membro integrante. A Pauta Aduaneira Angolana sendo um documento oficial aprovado através de um Decreto Legislativo Presidencial nº 10/13 de 22 de Novembro, e concebido de acordo as premissas do GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade), ou seja, o Acordo Geral sobre Tarifas e Comércio da OMC e do Sistema Harmonizado, permite ao Estado angolano conceder a isenção no pagamento de mercadorias de interesse Governamental e que ajudam nos processos de revitalização e dinamização do setor industrial. Para que tal facto ocorra, as medidas Governamentais em torno do controlo do comércio internacional e que alavancam o processo de industrialização de Angola, não podem ser aplicadas isoladamente pois não são suficientemente eficazes para alterar o atual quadro socioeconómico de Angola. No entanto, elas devem ser aplicadas em paralelo ou em bloco, respectivamente com o processo de subvenção pelo Estado Angolano nos setores primário e secundário da Economia, garantindo desta forma as premissas necessárias para a alavancagem e sua solidificação.
International trade is a theme that has been part of international approaches due to its importance and has gradually and over time driven to upgrade mechanisms that ensure an effective relationship among the states, as well as the regulation of businesses between countries. This research main objective was to describe and assess the impact of the imposition of trade barriers and the application of tariffs to Angolan imports and exports. This research is mainly qualitative, with a descriptive and exploratory focus. A documentary analysis was made and the most relevant bibliographies were selected for the construction of this study together with data collected from Angolan official institutions. The study showed that various barriers may drive to domestic production encouragement, being the most commonly used tariff and non-tariff barriers, with greater relevance and applicability of the later, taking into account the current scenario and strategic position that Angola ranks, within SADC and the African continent of which it is an integral member. The Angolan Customs Tariff being an official document approved by Decree Law No. 2/08 dated August 4 and designed according the assumptions of GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) and the Harmonized System, allows the Angolan State to grant an exemption in payment of goods of Government interest and help in the revitalization and promotion of the industrial sector. For such event to occur the Government measures related to the control of International Trade which boost the industrialization process of Angola, can not be separately applied, seeing that they are not effective enough to change the current socio-economic context of Angola. However, they should be applied in parallel or in block, respectively with the grant process by the Angolan Government in the primary and secondary sectors of the economy, thus ensuring the necessary assumption for leverage and its solidification.

Dissertação de Mestrado em EstratégiaPelo potencial estratégico que encerra, decorrente da geografia e dos recursos naturais existentes no seu subsolo, Angola levanta posicionamentos e disputas estratégicas, cujas dificuldades só podem ser superadas e as eventualidades exploradas com a instituição de um poder organizacional competente e dinâmico que implica a necessidade de uma consciência geopolítica activa. A história recente de Angola é disso um exemplo eloquente. A sustentação da guerra civil de que o país foi palco, muito se deveu a disputas geopolíticas no quadro da Guerra Fria. Neste trabalho abordamos o Conceito Estratégico Nacional (CEN) e a sua aplicação ao caso angolano. A análise abrange o período de 2002, que marca o fim do conflito ao ano de 2017. Com recurso a análise de documentos emitidos pelo Estado angolano e de entidades com interesse em apresentar visões programáticas sobre o país, foi-nos possível com base na identificação dos Interesses nacionais (IN) e os Objectivos nacionais (ON) que preconizam e o alinhamento destes com as Aspirações nacionais (AN), inferir sobre o CEN no caso angolano. Concluímos que não se afigura a existência de um CEN no período em análise, no entanto, mostra-se possível a concepção e implementação de um CEN no caso de Angola.
Angola raises interests and geopolitical disputes due to its strategic potential, which has to do with its geographical location and its abundance in strategic resources. Those interests and disputes can only be overcome and taken advantage of by setting up competent and dynamic organizational structures which depends on an active geopolitical awareness. The recent period of Angolan history it is a great example of that. The support and sustenance of the civil war which eroded the country was due to geopolitical disputes in the framework of the Cold War. In this study we assess the applicability of National Strategic Concept to the Angolan case. The analysis covers the period from 2002, which marks the end of the conflict to the year 2017. Based on the analysis of documents issued by the Angolan State and entities interested in presenting programmatic visions about the country, we were able by identifying the Interests and goals that they advocate and their alignment with the national Aspirations to infer about a National Strategic Concept for the Angolan case. We concluded that there are not elements that may account for a National Strategic Concept in Angola on the period under review, however, it is possible to design and implement one.

Angola é um país multilingue e com uma grande diversidade étnica e cultural, o que justifica a existência de caraterísticas próprias da variedade angolana do Português. Estas devem-se não só à diversidade atrás referida como também às condições específicas da aquisição daquela língua em território angolano e, é claro, às influências/interferências das línguas nacionais, mesmo entre falantes que só têm a portuguesa como língua materna. O objetivo geral desta dissertação é estudar um dos aspetos em que o Português falado em Angola manifesta a influência das línguas nacionais: a fraseologia. Assim, o objetivo específico consiste em analisar uma amostra da fraseologia angolana, vale dizer, das expressões idiomáticas (EI) usadas no Português de Angola. Expressões como "bater na rocha", "tirar voado", "sukula zuata", "mãe grande", entre outras, foram estudadas à luz da literatura especializada da área da Fraseologia. O estudo baseou-se numa amostra prévia, constituída propositadamente para este efeito, e pelos dados recolhidos por meio de um inquérito que foi realizado junto de 242 falantes angolanos (entre os 14 e os 70 anos) de ambos os sexos, bem como recolhidos em jornais, letras de músicas e alguns programas televisivos, o que permitiu proceder ao cruzamento desses dados e aferir a generalização das EIs quanto ao seu uso.
Além da análise das EIs que constituem o corpus do trabalho, procurou-se igualmente analisar a consciência linguística dos falantes a respeito dessas expressões.
Em resumo, com esta dissertação procura-se contribuir para os estudos da fraseologia do Português de Angola, domínio ainda escassamente investigado; Abstract:
Contributions to the study of idiomatic expressions in Angolan Portuguese
Angola is a multilingual country with a great ethnic and cultural diversity, which explains the existence of the Angolan variety of Portuguese own characteristics. These are due not only to the above-mentioned diversity but also to the specific conditions for the acquisition of that language in Angolan territory and, of course, to the influences/interference of national languages, even among speakers who only have Portuguese as their mother tongue. The main purpose of this dissertation is to study one of the aspects in which Portuguese spoken in Angola manifests the influence of national languages: phraseology. Thus, the specific objective is to analyze a sample of the Angolan phraseology, that is, of the idiomatic expressions (IE) used in Angolan Portuguese. Expressions as "bater na rocha", "tirar voado", "sukula zuata", "mãe grande", among others, were studied according to the specialized literature in the Phraseology field. The study was based on a previous sample, purposely constituted for this purpose, and on the data collected through a survey that was carried out among 242 Angolan speakers (between 14 and 70 years old) of both genders as well as collected in newspapers, lyrics and some television programs, which allowed us to cross these data and assess the generalization of IE regarding their use.
In addition to the analysis of the IE that constitute the corpus of the work, it was also aimed to analyze the linguistic awareness of the speakers regarding these expressions.
In short, this dissertation seeks to contribute to the studies of the phraseology of the Portuguese of Angola, still a poorly domain researched.

Full textAbstract:
Dans notre travail nous voulons démontrer que, la guerre et la pauvreté n'auraient pas contribué à la baisse de la fécondité au sein d'une population déplacée, ancrée dans la tradition et le culte des ancêtres. Rompre avec cette tradition sans toutefois offrir des alternatives c'est nier son passé et sa culture. Les hommes et les femmes africains accordent beaucoup d'importance aux enfants pour assurer la continuité de lignée. Les données de notre enquête montrent que les femmes déplacées de guerre à Luanda ont une parité moyenne plus élevée que les femmes autochtones. Cette différence s'explique à travers les inégalités d'accès aux méthodes contraceptives modernes. Cependant, il est prouvé qu'il existe une relation entre la maîtrise de la fécondité et la pratique contraceptive. En milieu urbain, plusieurs facteurs contribuent à la baisse de la fécondité entre autre l'âge de la femme au mariage, l'instruction, la situation professionnelle. . . . Mais les difficultés pour entretenir une famille nombreuse peuvent obliger à réduire les naissances sous l'impact d'un "malthusianisme de pauvreté".

Full textAbstract:
The blacktail, Diplodus capensis, is an inshore sparid fish distributed from Mozambique to Angola. This species forms an important component of coastal fisheries within its distribution, one being the subsistence handline fishery in southern Angola. With this fishery being critically important to the livelihoods of local communities, a biological study and stock assessment was conducted to provide information for the management of this species in southern Angola. However, with molecular evidence suggesting that the Benguela current may have separated the southern African populations of many inshore fish species over two million years ago, a morphological, taxonomic analysis was considered necessary to first investigate whether there was evidence for allopatry in this species. A total of 46 morphometric measurements and 18 counts were carried out on specimens collected from various locations in southern Angola and South Africa. Results were analysed using multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) and the significance of clusters was tested using analysis of similarities (ANOSIM). Biological samples of D. capensis were collected monthly from an unexploited area from April 2008 to March 2009. Additional biological samples were collected from the subsistence fishers in an exploited area during May, June and December 2009. Standard biological laboratory techniques were employed for the lifehistory comparison between the exploited and unexploited area. A per-recruit analysis was conducted using the life-history parameters from both areas in order to assess the current status of the subsistence fishery and to investigate the potential short-falls of the per-recruit assessment approach. The morphometric comparison showed that there was not sufficient evidence for speciation between the southern Angolan and South African populations of D. capensis. There was, however, sufficient morphological evidence to suggest that these populations are separate stocks. This indicated that the existing reference points on which the management of the South African population is based are unsuitable for the Angolan population. Diplodus capensis in southern Angola is omnivorous, feeding predominantly on algae, barnacles and mussels. An ontogenetic shift from algae to barnacles and mussels was correlated with allometric growth patterns in their feeding apparatus. This species is a rudimentary hermaphrodite in southern Angola with peak spawning in June and July. The overall sex ratio (M: F) was 1: 4.7 in the unexploited area and 50% maturity was attained at 149.5mm FL and five years. Diplodus capensis in southern Angola exhibits very slow growth with the maximum age observed being 31 years (validated using mark recapture of chemically injected fish). Females [L(t) = 419.5(1-e⁻°·°⁴⁵⁽t⁻³·⁴ ⁾)] grew significantly faster (LRT, p < 0.05) than males [L(t) = 297.4(1-e⁻°·°⁷⁷⁽t⁻²·⁷⁾)], and females dominated the larger size classes and older age classes. In the exploited area, the length and age frequencies were severely truncated, the maximum observed age was greatly reduced (17 years) and the sex ratio was less female biased at 1: 2.2. Although there was no evidence for a physiological response to exploitation through alterations in growth or size/age at sexual maturity between the two areas, there was an increase in the proportion of small females in the exploited area, which may have been a compensatory response for the loss of large females. A combination of an underestimate of longevity, different estimates of the Von Bertalanffy growth parameters and overestimates of the natural mortality rate in the exploited population resulted in a 92% underestimate of the pristine spawner biomass-per-recruit (SBR) value. An assessment based on the actual pristine SBR estimate from the unexploited area revealed that the subsistence fishery had actually reduced D. capensis to 20% of its pristine SBR levels and highlighted the value of pre-exploitation life-history information for the application of per-recruit models. This study has shown that D. capensis in southern Angola displays life-history characteristics that render it susceptible to overexploitation, even at low levels of fishing pressure. The current lack of infrastructure and enforcement capacity in the fisheries department of Angola renders traditional linefish regulatory tools, such as size limits, bag limits and closed seasons, inappropriate. Therefore, suitably designed marine protected areas are recommended as the best management option for this species.

Les risques des décharges électrostatiques (DES) sur des dispositifs et systèmes électroniques dépend de l'état de charge de l'opérateur et des objets situés à proximité. Cette thèse a eu comme objectif de contribuer à la mise au point d'une méthodologie de mesure pour caractériser l'état de charge des opérateurs et des matériaux textiles, afin d'établir leur capacité de produire DES nuisibles. Des méthodes de mesure directes et indirectes ont été proposées pour l'évaluation de la charge des opérateurs dans trois situations d'intérêt pratique. D'autres techniques, telles que la mesure de potentiel de surface et de l'intensité du champ électrique ont été utilisées pour le monitoring de l'état de charge des matériaux textiles. Des modèles comportementaux ont été établis pour la charge et la décharge de ces matériaux, en faisant appel à la méthodologie des plans d'expériences. Les essais réalisés sur des échantillons de polypropylène et de polyester ont permis de valider aussi deux méthodes permettant d'accélérer la diminution de la charge des médias isolants non-tissés en utilisant des générateurs d'ions ou des décharges couronne produites par des électrodes alimentées à des hautes tensions sinusoïdales ou triangulaires, de fréquences allant jusqu’à 400 Hz. Un exemple d'accumulation d'électricité statique sur une plaquette de silicium est aussi discuté, en rapport avec une application à la fabrication des microsystèmes électromécaniques. L'amélioration de la méthodologie de mesure est un pré-requis pour l'adoption des meilleures stratégies destinées à maîtriser les risques électrostatiques dans un environnement industrielThe risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) on electronic devices and systems depends on the charge state of the operator and nearby objects. This thesis aimed at contributing to the development of a measurement methodology to characterize the state of charge of the operators and textile materials, in order to determine their ability to produce harmful effects. Direct and indirect measuring methods have been proposed for assessing the charge of operators in three situations of practical interest. Other techniques, such as surface potential and electric field intensity measurements were used for monitoring the state of charge of textile materials. Behavioural models have been established for the charging and discharging of these materials, using the methodology of experimental design. Tests on samples of polypropylene and polyester have also validated two methods for accelerating the reduction of the charge of insulating nonwoven media using ion generators or corona discharge produced by electrodes energized from sinusoidal or triangular high voltage supplies, at frequencies up to 400 Hz. An example of static electricity on a silicon wafer is also discussed in relation with an application to the fabrication of mechanical and electronic micro-systems. Refinement of the measurement methodology is a prerequisite for the adoption of best strategies to control electrostatic risks in an industrial environment

O presente estudo não foi conduzido apenas por proposições e obras que remetem os conceitos apresentados, mas por meio de uma pesquisa qualitativa com mulheres que já se consolidaram como empreendedoras e outras que ainda estão à caminho. Pelo seu caráter exploratório, a pesquisa qualitativa levou as entrevistadas a refletirem sobre o tema em estudo revelando assim, aspectos subjetivos que fazem parte das suas ações empreendedoras. Este estudo teve como principal objetivo examinar de maneira minuciosa percepções acerca da natureza das motivações, significados e desdobramentos da iniciativa feminina, por isso, a abordagem qualitativa foi a escolhida para este trabalho por ser a que melhor fornece condições de explorar o fenómeno do empreendedorismo feminino.Throughout the history of their lives women assume tasks that differ from the domestic and family environment due to changes in the society, and posess characteristics similar and diverse in the search for a place in the labor market.

This study was not conducted only by propositions and works that recall the concepts presented, but through a qualitative research with women who have consolidated as entrepreneurs and others that are still on the way. For its exploratory nature, the qualitative research led the interviewees to reflect about the subject under study revealing subjective aspects that are part of their entrepreneurial activities. This study aimed to examine in detail perceptions about the nature of the motivations, meanings and consequences of women's initiative, therefore, the qualitative approach was chosen for this work because it is the one that best allows to explore the phenomenon of female entrepreneurship.

Il s'agit du cheminement du pouvoir politique et de l'organisation sociale chez les Bakongo de l'Angola à travers de nombreux indicateurs, continuité, transition et transformation dues à la fois à l'impact des contacts avec les anciennes puissances coloniales européennes et à une mondialisation de plus en plus croissante. Nous sommes partis de l'hypothèse de la conception et pratique traditionnelle et moderne de l'organisation du pouvoir politique comme lieu d'intersection des organisations sociales impliquées dans les stratégies d'alliances à travers leurs Leaders politiques respectifs en référence à leurs appartenances ou origines sociales respectives. Le spectre d'alliances présent dans notre travail sous forme d'une typologie et non uniquement un procédé classificatoire, est façonné par des rapports matrimoniaux, en ce sens que les rapports de mariage entre deux être appartenant à deux groupes sociaux distincts deviennent un élément de stabilité de l'exercice ou de la pratique du pouvoir politique et des rapports contractuels entre les groupes sociaux, religieux, ou partis politiques. Entre l'Organisation sociale et l'organisation politique, la religion principalement le messianisme peut être analyser en terme de médiationThis thesis is divided into two parts : the first part concentrates on the evolution of political power and social structure amongst the Bakongo people and the second part discusses religious, political and social structure and the different alliances found in this society. Thse themes will be explored over seven chapters. The thesis concerns the progression of the political power and social structure of the Bakongo people of Angola through several different indicators : continuity, transition and transformation, due both to the impact of European colonisation and to the ever-increasing effects of globalisation. We took as our starting point the model of the traditional and modern political conceptions and practices as a point of intersection for social groups involved in alliance tactics between their political leaders, with regard to their respective backgrounds or social origins. The sectrum of alliances present in our study in the form ot typology (and not only of a classifying process), is shaped by matrimonial associations, in the sense that the ties of marriage between two people pertaining to two distinct social groups impose an element of stability in the exercice and practice of political power and the contractual links between social and religious groups or political parties. Between social organisation and the political organisation, the religion principally the messianism may be analysis in term of mediation

Over the last decade and the rise of the PRC, the Sino-African relations evolved from political to economic. As the Chinese economic interests in Africa strongly developed, this paper explains how China managed to become a preeminent development partner in the Sub-Saharan Africa and the repercussions of this enclosed cooperation. Hence, it examines the Chinese strategy to gain entry into these countries and the repercussions it had on different layers of the local economies. The findings show that China heavily invested and granted large loans with advantageous repayment conditions paired with minimal obligations for money delivery. As a result, China had access to natural resources in exchange for financing and operating infrastructure development. The immediate effect for African nations has been the explosion of capital accumulation gathered through international market. These enhanced capital increase had repercussions on the nations’ immediate economic growth; Angola having been the world’s fastest developing country over the first decade of the years 2000’s. However, to be competitive against the IMF’s development program, the lowly conditioned Angola Mode found a break in the output diversification and the non-systematic economic development. As such, it appears that the Angola Model’s blueprint and its non-interference in local administration is a formidable opportunity to gather capital and develop communication systems for a nation committed to growth and development but it would rather appear as meaningless in case of funds misallocation. Following these highlighted pros and cons, this dissertation is concluded with a set of policy recommendations oriented for both African nations’ long term development and the improvement of the current Angola Model to achieve a greater efficiency.published_or_final_version

Existe uma preocupação crescente com possíveis mudanças do clima, quer sejam naturais ou que venham a ser provocadas pelo homem. Quando se dispõem de séries temporais longas, estudos da tendência da precipitação tornam-se imperativos para se poder avaliar as variabilidades e tendência desse elemento do clima nas várias escalas temporais. Além de resultar num conhecimento melhor do clima regional, esses estudos permitem um prognóstico ou antevisão do clima futuro, de extrema importância para se gerirem os recursos naturais e hídricos e para o planeamento das actividades humanas.
Neste trabalho, analisaram-se séries temporais de precipitação de longo prazo, existentes para várias localidades de Angola, verificando sua consistência espacial, ciclos aparentes e suas tendências. A precipitação regional foi relacionada com fenómenos atmosféricos de alta-frequência, como eventos El Nino e La Nina e com fenómenos de baixa frequência, como a Oscilação Decadal do Pacífico (ODP). Um exercício complementar foi realizado ao se correlacionarem os dados de precipitação com o conjunto de dados de Reanálises do NCEP para verificar possíveis divergências relativamente aos dados observados, validar esses conjuntos de dados para sua utilização em modelos regionais que usam técnicas de "downscaling" estatístico ou dinâmico.

Studies of precipitation trends, using long terra time series, become imperative to evaluate variability and tendency of the climate. Moreover, these studies result in a better knowledge of the regional climate and allow foreseeing or forecasting future climate, of great importance for managing natural and water resources and planning of human activities. In this work, long-terra observed rainfall series for some localities of Angola were analyzed, substantiating the spatial consistency, apparent cycles and trends the regional precipitation was related with high-frequency atmospheric phenomena, such as El Nino and La Nina events and low frequency phenomena, such as the Pacific Decadal Oscillator, (MO). A complementary work was carried out correlating the precipitation database with the NCEP Reanalysis dataset, to verify possible disagreement to the observed data and validate these datasets for their use in regional models employing statistic or dynamic downscaling.

Mestrado em Desenvolvimento e Cooperação InternacionalDesde de 2002 que a China tem criado laços cada vez mais fortes com Angola. A ajuda pública ao desenvolvimento, a diplomacia através do soft power, o investimento e o mecanismo “Modo Angola” são os métodos de intervenção utilizados pela segunda potência mundial. A relação sino-angolana centra-se sobretudo no financiamento à reconstrução e reabilitação de infra-estruturas em troca de petróleo. Trata-se de uma cooperação onde os benefícios são mútuos para ambas as partes, contudo o futuro pode reservar-lhes alguns inconvenientes.
Since 2002, China has created increasingly stronger ties with Angola. The aid, diplomacy through soft power, investment and the mechanism “Angola Mode” are the intervention methods used by the second world power. The sino-angolan relationship focuses mainly on financing the reconstruction and rehabilitation of infrastructure in exchange for oil. It’s a cooperation where benefits are mutual for both countries, but the future might bring them some inconvenients.

Les vestiges archéologiques d'âges et de natures diverses connaissent une importante extension en Angola. Parmi ces témoins du passé le pays présente une importante carte de sites de gravures et de peintures rupestres. Du fleuve Zaïre au fleuve Cunene l'art pariétal se trouve représenté sur au moins 34 sites. Les sujets représentés sont "naturalistes" (site no 1), géométriques avec prédominance de cercles (sites no 7,8,9) ou bien des sites "mixtes" avec des sujets "naturalistes" et abstraits conjugués (région sud-ouest) la chronologie de l'art pariétal n'est pas encore établie avec précision. Néanmoins des indices comme la présence des objets européens et des datations 14c permettent d'élaborer une tentative de chronologie relative. Des datations ams 14c permettent d'affirmer qu'au moins un site du sud-ouest aurait 2000 ans d'ancienneté. L'interprétation des œuvres peintes ou gravées est complexe. L'existence des sujets, actuels, graves, peints, ou dessines sur le sable, dont une signification est connue permet d'avancer des hypothèses sur l'éventuelle signification de certaines figures ou situations de ces vestiges du passé de l’Angola.

Esta dissertação tem o intuito de fazer ver a presença da constante violência linguística carregada em discursos jurídicos, históricos e institucionais de Angola, no tocante à relação entre as ideias de nação, nacionalismo e língua no período pré e pós-independência. Com o escopo de promover uma discussão acerca do multilinguismo em Angola, o exame compreende um percurso através dos principais acontecimentos históricos do país envolvendo a língua, sendo pautado nas reflexões da linguística colonial e crítica. Nesse sentido, a análise crítica do contexto histórico da independência política angolana, sob o prisma do aspecto linguístico, permitirá que sejam analisadas as noções políticas sobre língua portuguesa, língua portuguesa angolana e línguas nacionais a fim de salientar as violências praticadas pelo discurso nacionalista sob fito de hierarquização linguística.
Abstract : This thesis intends to present and discuss the conflicts in the speeches of juridical, historical and institutional of Angola, regarding the correlation between the ideas of nation, language and nationalism in colonial and post-independence periods. Aiming at promoting a discussion of multilingualism in Angola, the analysis comprises a perspective that considers the main historical events of the country, using the framework of colonial and critical linguistics. In this sense, the critical analysis of the historical context of the Angolan political independence, in light of the linguistic aspect, allows that political notions be analyzed on Portuguese, Angolan Portuguese and National languages, therefore focusing on the violence produced by linguistic hierarchy.

Etude grammaticale de l'iwoyo, langue bantoue angolaise appartenant au sous goupe "kikongo", parlee au cabinda et classe par m. Guthrie dans la zone h16a. Ce travail, realise conformement au cadre theorique et methodologique utilisee par e. Bonvini pour lalangue kasim, est precede d'une introduction generale et articule en quatre chapitres. Le premier a ete consacre a la morphosyntaxe de la predication ou sont degages les schemas des enonces de l'assertion, de l'interrogation et de l'intimation. Il a ete par la suite possible d'identifier deux grandes categries de constituants syntaxiques : le nominal et le verbal. Le deuxieme chapitre traite du nominal. En utilisant d'une maniere conjointe les notions de "classe" et de "genre", nous avons pu ensuite analyser son comportement en tant que constituant syntaxique plurifonctionnel. 18 classes et 13 genres ont ete identifies. L'analyse s'est poursuivie avec l'etude du nom, du syntagme nominal, du pronom et du numeral. Le troisieme chapitre presente le systeme verbal sur la base de la distinction entre le constituant verbal lui meme et les specificatifs verbaux. Le quatrieme chapitre est consacre a l'etude de l'enonce et de ses variations internes et externes. Les premieres concernent la focalisation et la thematisation tandis que les secondes se referent a la coordination et a la thematisationThe goal of this work is to give a clear inderstanding of the grammacial structures of iwoyo, an angolan bantu language spoken in cabinda and classified by m. Guthrie under the h16a zone. After an introductory background concerning some basic geographical informations about the country, and a brief geographical and historical description of cabinda the first chapter present the structures of the major utterances attested by the language: assertive, interrogative and intimative sentences which provided the inventory of the nominal and verbal constituents. The second chapter deals with the nominal constituent analyzed through two methodological frameworks: bantu traditional one and e. Bonvini's. We first discussed class systeme and gender marlers; then we studied successively the noun, the noun phrase, the rponoun and the numeral. In the third chapter the verbal constituent is analyzed in detail. Through considering bantu traditional methode, we made a distinction between the verb and its specifiers, accordingly to e. Bonvini's suggestion. In the last chapter we studied the internal and external enunciative variations, specially topicalizationin one hand and corrdination and subordination on the other

L "étude grammaticale du kimbundu" comporte quatre chapitres : énonciation et prédication, le verbal, le nominal et l’énonce et ses variations. Dans le premier chapitre, "énonciation et prédication", l’organisation morphosyntaxique de la langue a dégagé tout particulièrement les schèmes prédicatifs propres à l’assertion, l’intimation et l’interrogation. Elle a également dégagé deux catégories formelles de la langue : le nominal et le verbal. Le deuxième chapitre, "le nominal », etudié sur quatre formes : le nom, le syntagme, le pronom et le numéral. Le nom se présente comme une séquence du type nominant + base. C’est le nominant qui confère a la base le statut de du sujet. La base est précédée par la marque de temps ou de mode (t m) et suivie par le verbant dont sa valeur sémantique est celle d’aspect. C’est le verbant qui confère à la base le statut de constituant verbal. Le quatrième chapitre, "l’énoncé et ses variations", ce n’est qu’une amorce d’une approche de ce domaine.

Cette thèse porte sur l'étude du système grammatical du Kisikongo, dialecte du kikongo (langue bantoue, h10), parle au nord-ouest de l’Angola. S’inspirant de la méthode d'E. Bonvini, l'analyse porte principalement sur la morphosyntaxe de la prédication, le nominal, le verbal et l'énoncé et ses variations. Le premier chapitre présente l'inventaire des schèmes d'énoncés verbaux (assertifs, intimatifs et interrogatifs) et nominaux et identifie le schème prédicatif sous-jacent a tous les énonces de la langue, ainsi que les fonctions syntaxiques et les constituants qui les assument. Le deuxième chapitre étudie d'abord le nominant en tant que morphème majeur commun à tous les nominaux et organise en un système basé sur une double réalité : celle de "classe" et de "genre". Il se poursuit par l'analyse détaillée du nom (simple et compose), du pronom, du numéral et du syntagme nominal. Le troisième chapitre présente d'abord une systématique formelle des éléments de la forme verbale selon la méthode des bantouistes. Il étudie ensuite le verbal a deux niveaux : au niveau du constituant verbal, l'étude porte sur le dérivatif verbal en tant qu'élargissement formel et sémantique de la base verbale et support de la diathèse verbale, ainsi que le verbant, en tant que morphème aspecto-temporel. Au niveau de la spécification verbale sont analyses les actualisateurs, les indices de fonction ainsi que les spécificités verbaux. Enfin, le quatrième chapitre traite des variations énonciatives internes (focalisation et thématisassions) et des variations énonciatives externes liées à la séquence des propositions (coordination et subordination)This thesis presents a study of the grammatical system of Kisikongo, a Kikongo dialect (h10) spoken in north-western Angola. Based on the E. Bonvini's methodological framework, it is carried out into four chapters : the first one makes an inventory of the verbal (assertive, intimative and interrogative) and nominal schemes of utterances, establishes the underlying sentence structure common to all Kisikongo utterances and identifies the major syntactic functions and constituents. The second chapter is devoted to the nominal. It first discusses the system of class and gender markers and goes on studying the simple and compound noun, the pronoun, the numeral and the noun phrase. The third chapter provides a detailed analysis of the verbal. It first analyses the formal elements of the verb form following the bantuist methodological framework. It then considers the verb stem, the derivational process, including verbal diathesis and the aspecto-temporal morphemes. In the last section the verbal specifiers are analyzed : pronominal prefixes, negation operators, ad-verbs and auxiliaries. Finally, the fourth chapter treats of the internal variations (topicalization) and the external ones (complex sentence structure, including relatization)

This study examined the main strategies adopted by the Angolan government in its post-conflict reconstruction efforts, and the extent to which these efforts have promoted durable peace in the country. The number of post-conflict countries on the continent is increasing, with 16 African countries already in the process of implementing peace agreements signed during the last decade. With research showing that up to 50 percent of post-conflict countries relapse into violent conflict within five to 10 years of signing a peace agreement, implementing practical and effective strategies to prevent a return to conflict becomes imperative. In the light of the limited experience of African countries in post-conflict situations, Angola presented an interesting case study. The oil and diamond rich country, emerging in 2002 from over 40 years of conflict, has been able to develop its own homegrown post-conflict reconstruction strategies. Notable progress in addressing some of its short-term post-conflict reconstruction priorities include, the successful resettlement of an estimated four million internally displaced persons (IDPs), and reintegrating more than half a million refugees and over 100 000 ex-combatants, into Angolan society. Progress in the areas of de-mining, as well as the rehabilitation of physical infrastructure, and increased enrolment in primary school education are other significant achievements. It is noteworthy that the Angolan government has, despite a lack of major international funding and overseas development assistance, been able to finance the majority of the expenses required for the country's reconstruction and re-Iaunching of the national economy. Importantly, the government's efforts have had some assistance in the form of oil-backed loans from China. Despite notable progress, such as the country's rapid economic growth, and being ranked 59th among the world's economies, Angola remains one of the most badly governed, corrupt, and unequal societies in the world. Credible improvements in the areas of good governance, socio-economic development, especially basic service delivery, and a more even distribution of the benefits of the country's oil wealth are vital in order to deliver significant peace dividends to the majority of the Angolan population. Making these improvements will be vital, and will influence considerably whether the country's post-conflict reconstruction efforts are ultimately successful.

A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Management from the NOVA – School of Business and EconomicsNowadays, direct marketing tools are being used by companies that want to expand their businesses, aim to distinguish its customer service and improve its stakeholders’ relationship. HOLOS Mobile, developed by the Portuguese software company HOLOS S.A. throughout a partnership with Google, is an innovative product that can be used in any device that have access to internet (PC/3G cell phones/PDA). This software enables companies to analyse data and generate knowledge management concerning business models, namely consumer behaviour, targeting, and segmentation of markets. In addition, this tool will indirectly benefit several players in the market and will gain advantage to the traditional marketing methods used, creating a new concept of relationship marketing. This product is currently being customized by HOLOS to Banco Espírito Santo (BES) and although is still not possible to predict if this pioneering application will follow the tendency of success that other HOLOS’ products achieved, there are positive insights regarding its potential, giving initial trials and testing. After the investment done by InovCapital in the company, HOLOS Board decided it was time to expand its activities to emergent markets. The objectives to reach with this international expansion are focused in capture new business opportunities, increase sales, maintain a competitive advantage and increase reputation among companies in the industry. HOLOS believes that Angola is an attractive target market and that deeply needs for ICT solutions. The stable environment that is started to be lived in the country, together with the historical, linguistic and cultural connections with Portugal gives HOLOS a first mover advantage when compared to possible competitors. Based on my research and the environmental conditions, I developed an internationalization strategic plan of measures and recommendations that aim to support HOLOS’ entrance in the Angolan market and further commercialization of its new product, HOLOS Mobile.
