Abstract: | Together with personal impressions the author describes successively 1. the development from armed struggle to Independence, 2. the realities surrounding the transition, 3. The situation in the Cape Verdes, 4. the problems of transition on the mainland. The problems of transition are of a different order from those familiar elsewhere. Three are important: 1. the need to install a national economy on a peacetime basis, 2. the problem of absorbing politics, 3. the acute shortage of technical and professional skills. Notes. |
