This is an analytical study of Portuguese decolonization, dealing with all the Portuguese territories in Africa, especially Angola and Mozambique, but also Guinea-Bissau, Cabo Verde, São Tomé and Principe. It is equally concerned with metropolitan Portugal itself, given the exceptionally intimate interdependence of developments at the imperial core and in the colonies.
