Abstract(s)
A presente investigação subordinada ao tema do terrorismo religioso na região dos
Grandes Lagos Africanos tem como objectivo compreender o ascendente nĆvel de
proliferação de violência terrorista que se regista nos últimos tempos na região.
O terrorismo contemporĆ¢neo representa hoje um dos temas mais discutidos e de difĆcil
explicação no campo das ciências sociais, daà a razão por que diversas pesquisas sobre este
tema, e em particular na Ć”rea cientĆfica das RelaƧƵes Internacionais, procuram aprofundar
estudos acerca do fenómeno com o propósito de apresentar uma imagem mais próxima do
que estarĆ” por detrĆ”s da proliferação repentina a partir do inĆcio do sĆ©culo XXI. Contudo,
os conflitos na região dos Grandes Lagos Africanos datam de longos tempos, mas com
uma onda crescente nos Ćŗltimos anos, cujas causas podem ser analisadas com base nas
novas dinâmicas imprimidas nas sociedades actuais. De qualquer forma, os governos da
região dos Grandes Lagos Africanos têm-se mostrado incapazes quando chamados para
reverter os problemas que afectam os seus Estados.
Esta investigação analisa este fenómeno a partir das lentes dos estudos crĆticos de
seguranƧa e debruƧa-se sobre os principais movimentos terroristas ali existentes para
procurar compreender a situação actual do terrorismo naquela parcela do continente
africano.
The present research on the topic of terrorism in the African Great Lakes Region aims to understand the rising level of proliferation of terrorist violence that has been registered recently in the region. Contemporary terrorism is one of the most discussed and difficult to explain subjects in the field of social sciences, hence the reason why several researches on this theme, and particularly in the scientific area of International Relations, seek to deepen studies on the phenomenon with the purpose of presenting an image closer to what undergirds the sudden proliferation from the beginning of the 21st century. However, conflicts in the African Great Lakes region date back a long time ago, but with a growing wave in recent years, the causes of which can be analyzed based on the new dynamics in today's societies. In any case, governments in the African Great Lakes region have been incapable of dealing with this phenomenon when called upon to reverse the problems affecting their states. This research analyzes this phenomenon from the lens of critical security studies and looks at the main terrorist movements in the region to try to understand the current situation of terrorism in that part of the African continent.
