Resumo(s)
This is a paper about continuity in change; about inertia and unconscious resistance. Situations of
rapid political change, such as independence from colonial domination, lead to a total reconstruction
of the political discourse. Whatever the specific status of these ideological projects, they will always have to confront the resistance of the lived world and its immense inertia and complexity. In the middle of post-Independence Maputo, Dona Berta’s Park is a symbolic reminder of the indivisibility of Mozambican history and of the inescapability of a historically constructed world that functions as a referent for communication.
