Africa-Press – Angola. “Clandestine Emigrants and Refugees in Southern Africa, the case of Angola (1961-1974)” is the title of a scientific work by the professor, Domingos Pascoal, now deceased, launched this Wednesday, by the Instituto Superior de Ciências de Educação (ISCED) of Huíla.
The work, with a circulation of 250 copies and 176 pages, was financed by ISCED-Huíla, to honor the master in African Studies, the institution that graduated him in teaching History and where for 31 years he dedicated his life to teaching and was an Associate Professor of the Department of Social Sciences.
On the sidelines of the launch, the president of the institution, Helder Bahu, made it known that ISCED-Huíla used the texts of the doctoral thesis in Contemporary History at the University of Évora (Portugal) that was being written by the author, who he was the only professor in the department who was doing “Pure History” and decided to sponsor the publication.
According to the academic, the book is an asset for the History Teaching course, as it serves as a working tool for historians, academics and others, in search of a more targeted study of the current phenomenon of illegal migration , as there is a record of people who left the country with some financial stability.
“To talk about this work is to analyze a phenomenon that is still little studied among us, because an individual who does not have the means or an opportunity does not emigrate, as conditions are necessary to make this movement”, he emphasized.
Domingos Pascoal was a professor at ISCED-Huíla in the History of the Middle Ages, Contemporary and Africa. He died in May 2022 from illness at the age of 74.
