Abstract/Index
Globalisation is a long-standing worldwide process that has generated winners and losers. In 1975, when Mozambique and Angola declared their independence, they were automatically and inescapably integrated into economic and political globalisation. However, such integration brought inconveniences for these two countries. In this regard, this study aimed to explain why globalisation led to the underdevelopment of Mozambique and Angola from 1975 to 2000. To achieve this supreme objective, a comparative case study method and an empirical approach to studying international relations were used. As a result of the research analysis, the following critical findings were found. Firstly, globalisation led to the underdevelopment of Mozambique and Angola due to the harsh policies and programs imposed by the agents of economic globalisation – the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank – on these two countries that abdicated regulatory power to these agents. Secondly, globalisation also led to the underdevelopment of these two States because it placed them in an entangled and deceptive international system that brought economic and political destabilisation caused by agents of political globalisation such as white South Africa, Southern Rhodesia, the United States of America, Cuba, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the communist and anti-communist national political movements. These results revealed that, although globalisation led to the underdevelopment of these two states for the reasons found and mentioned above, the ineffectiveness of these countries in formulating practical developmental policies also played a vital role.
