Abstract
This article comes about with the objective of analyzing in a comparative way the elements of continuity and discontinuity between the policies and strategies to combat poverty and to promote development related to the foreign policy that Mozambique adopted after independence. The main idea is that these policies (PPI, PRE (S), PARPA's) did not achieve their goals; so much that they were updated successively, adjusting them according to the political-economic situation in which Mozambique was living. Mozambique pursued this path because it aimed to maintain the defense of the country's independence and sovereignty, eradicating poverty, consolidating national unity and strengthening democracy and freedom. Therefore, it is concluded that in these policies and strategies there is, on the one hand, a continuity of the objectives previously outlined, but also as the intention to better eradicate poverty and achieve development, there are elements of rupture among them.
Highlights
This article sets out the comparative analysis of the different policies and strategies to combat poverty and to promote development that have been successively adopted in Mozambique since the time of independence (1975), to the present day, especially in the area of Foreign Policy
The other document approved by the government is Agenda 2030, which in its summary adds 17 objectives of sustainable development, and which is in part a continuity of the programmatic documents for poverty reduction, as we will mention below and that were built on the aegis of the Millennium Development Goals, on the goals not reached by those documents, and on their achievements
Mozambique, after achieving independence, decided to adopt a policy that would contribute to the development of its welfare state, and it was for this purpose that, between 2001 and 2005, it adopted (PARPA-I), which at its core sought to develop the strategy for reduction of poverty
Summary
This article sets out the comparative analysis of the different policies and strategies to combat poverty and to promote development that have been successively adopted in Mozambique since the time of independence (1975), to the present day, especially in the area of Foreign Policy. The PPI for the decade 1981-1990, which was the guide for state action, was a fundamental instrument for the construction of a relatively developed socialist economy [8] This argument expresses a deep relationship between Mozambique and the socialist countries in the context of bilateral cooperation at the time, in addition to allowing rapid international cooperation aimed to development, based on the maximization of production for the export and import of semi-finished products whose completion would take place in soil Mozambican government. Mozambique, after achieving independence, decided to adopt a policy that would contribute to the development of its welfare state, and it was for this purpose that, between 2001 and 2005, it adopted (PARPA-I), which at its core sought to develop the strategy for reduction of poverty This plan for its effectiveness had as strategic objective, to substantially reduce absolute poverty levels in Mozambique by taking measures to improve capacities and opportunities for all Mozambicans, the poor. As for monetary and exchange rate policy, the government should avoid exchange rates, ensuring real interest rates at the appropriate levels for the proper functioning of the economy in order to enable competitiveness, the need to maintain low and stable levels, inflation rates, appropriate levels to ensure the country's international commitments [18]
