This thematic dossier of RCCS brings forward three comprehensive articles on Yugoslavia and both East and West Germany’s take on solidarity, public opinion and colonialism in the former Portuguese African colonies of Angola, Mozambique and Guinea -Bissau. The articles employ mostly a historical -cultural approach that lays the groundwork for a larger debate on how the image of Portuguese colonialism, and the struggle for independence in Angola and Mozambique more specifically, were constructed in film and in public opinion, through either solidarity movements or actions meant to support the liberation movements in these countries. The RCCS articles dialogue with and complement the Afriche e Orienti no. 3 (2017) since they bring forward new case studies from a fresh perspective, considering the use of archival resources that have been unexplored to date.

Abstract
This thematic dossier of RCCS brings forward three comprehensive articles on Yugoslavia and both East and West Germany’s take on solidarity, public opinion and colonialism in the former Portuguese African colonies of Angola, Mozambique and Guinea -Bissau. The articles employ mostly a historical -cultural approach that lays the groundwork for a larger debate on how the image of Portuguese colonialism, and the struggle for independence in Angola and Mozambique more specifically, were constructed in film and in public opinion, through either solidarity movements or actions meant to support the liberation movements in these countries. The RCCS articles dialogue with and complement the Afriche e Orienti no. 3 (2017) since they bring forward new case studies from a fresh perspective, considering the use of archival resources that have been unexplored to date.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
