Abstract(s)
A presente dissertação tem como principal objetivo descrever e explicar as operações militares terrestres, em Angola, nos anos de 1914 e 1915. Neste sentido, o estudo estende-se naturalmente para a análise das forças executantes, ou seja, para a sua orgânica, para a sua organização para o combate, para o funcionamento da sua máquina logística e, ainda, para as suas táticas, técnicas e procedimentos.
Durante a realização deste trabalho, teve-se como referência o método de investigação histórica, segundo uma abordagem diacrónica, para descrever e explicar a evolução da orgânica das forças expedicionárias, a sua preparação e o desenrolar das suas operações. Adicionalmente, seguindo o sistema de análise SWOT, foram analisados os fatores internos e externos, de forma a identificar os pontos fortes, pontos fracos, oportunidades e ameaças das forças em operações e da própria campanha.
Este estudo é baseado na análise de conteúdos de fontes primárias, manuscritas e impressas, textuais e iconográficas, nacionais e internacionais, diretamente relacionadas com o objeto de estudo e com a cronologia proposta.
