O Lugar das Questões de Género no Programa de Governo dos Partidos Maioritários: As eleições de 2022 em Angola

Abstract

The article aims to understand the extent to which gender issues are (dis)considered in the exercise of active politics in Angola, analysing the government program of the two largest political parties (UNITA and MPLA), presented in the 2022 elections. In this way, we do intend to understand the nature of the categories and concepts operationalized by the two political parties, and their implications for the change or maintenance of gender relations. This is an exploratory qualitative study, of a bibliographic and documentary spectrum. This article concludes that, although gender issues do have a place in the proposal of the two political parties, both suffer from structural conceptual deficiencies, which compromise the reality of dignity and human rights for all people, as well as the consolidation of the state, which constitutionally, is democratic and ruled by law.
