Guinea-Bissau: Priorities for Long-Term Stability Guinea-Bissau: Priorities for long-term stability Paulin Maurice Toupane, Aïssatou Kanté and Adja Khadidiatou Faye The legislative election slated for 10 March 2019 in Guinea-Bissau is a promising step towards political stability. But institutional reforms are needed to achieve long-term stability. To this end, dialogue is required to define priorities and create favourable conditions for reform. At the same time, Guinea-Bissau needs the backing of regional and international partners, who should frame their support in terms of a long-term vision.

  • The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines
    The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines Dear Country Expert, In this section, we distinguish between the head of state (HOS) and the head of government (HOG). • The Head of State (HOS) is an individual or collective body that serves as the chief public representative of the country; his or her function could be purely ceremonial. • The Head of Government (HOG) is the chief officer(s) of the executive branch of government; the HOG may also be HOS, in which case the executive survey only pertains to the HOS. • The executive survey applies to the person who effectively holds these positions in practice. • The HOS/HOG pair will always include the effective ruler of the country, even if for a period this is the commander of foreign occupying forces. • The HOS and/or HOG must rule over a significant part of the country’s territory. • The HOS and/or HOG must be a resident of the country — governments in exile are not listed. • By implication, if you are considering a semi-sovereign territory, such as a colony or an annexed territory, the HOS and/or HOG will be a person located in the territory in question, not in the capital of the colonizing/annexing country. • Only HOSs and/or HOGs who stay in power for 100 consecutive days or more will be included in the surveys. • A country may go without a HOG but there will be no period listed with only a HOG and no HOS. • If a HOG also becomes HOS (interim or full), s/he is moved to the HOS list and removed from the HOG list for the duration of their tenure.

  • A Independência Da Guiné-Bissau
    A Independência da Guiné-Bissau Regimes Políticos da Guiné-Bissau - Os dois primeiros Governos Provisórios de Portugal cumpriram a promessa de reconhecimento da República da Guiné-Bissau. Foi o adeus a uma província que era sempre a madrasta do Império Colonial, não fosse ela a mais pequena e a mais pobre das províncias em guerra. O facto de apenas existir um movimento de libertação – o PAIGC – tornou mais fácil chegar a um entendimento entre as entidades portuguesas e aquele movimento para, no fundo, aquelas reconhecerem a independência que já tinha sido unilateralmente declarada em 24 de Setembro de 1973. Após esta data, não faltaram países a reconhecerem o novo Estado: até ao final daquele ano, foram cerca de 40 e, em 31 de Maio de 1974, eram já 84. O 10 de Setembro de 1974 marca, assim, o início do rumo político de um novo Estado, deixado agora totalmente nas mãos do povo guineense, melhor dizendo, na mãos dos dirigentes políticos guineenses. Embora para estes, o dia efectivo da independência seja o 24 de Setembro de 1973. A Guiné-Bissau, desde então totalmente independente e administrada por mãos próprias, teve ao longo destes 34 anos muitas metamorfoses políticas que lhe proporcionaram grandes e graves contratempos para a consolidação da democracia, estabilidade política e desenvolvimento sócio-económico. Alguns anos sem eleições e com um sistema de partido único, depois golpes de Estado frequentes, a Guiné-Bissau acabou por “oferecer” ao seu povo graves desentendimentos políticos que só trouxeram desordens, pouco desenvolvimento e mais pobreza. De tal forma que muitos guineenses passaram a manifestar saudades do tempo em que os portugueses, apesar da nefasta guerra, distribuíam alimentação (arroz e outros produtos) em todo o território e apoiavam as populações que o desejassem, não só nas cidades e vilas, mas também nos locais mais recônditos onde existissem Tabancas.
