L'Angola De A à Z. Actualité Sociale et Politique

Daniel Ribant (2015). L'Angola De A à Z. Actualité Sociale et Politique. Paris: L´Harmattan, 248 pages  (ISBN : 978-2-343-06519-9)

Description: 1975-2015. Quarante ans après s'être libéré d'une des colonisations les plus longues de l'histoire, l'Angola se (re)construit à allure soutenue. Conçu sous forme d'abécédaire, le livre se propose de couvrir les multiples aspects d'un pays méconnu et complexe. Sa réalité se découvre à la lecture des 76 sujets thématiques soigneusement choisis par l'auteur afin de mettre en évidence les particularités du pays, les contraintes d'une histoire particulièrement pesante et les défis auxquels il est confronté.
