Abstract: The debates about the ends, intended and unintended, of "development" need a critical historical (analysis, capable of questioning its multiple chronologies, explore its diverse geographical manifestations, and acknowledge the variety of protagonists involved. In other words, they require an appraisal capable of reassessing a the contexts of development, its processes and consequences, and the merging of international and transnational dynamics with local specificities. This lecture will focus on the ways in which doctrines and projects of development shaped the relations between Portugal and its former colonial territories Sr Africa since 1945, evaluating as well their postcolonial legacies.
