  • Donas Da Terra. Her-Story on Female Power and Authority in the Zambezi Valley, Mozambique
    ! ECAS 2013 5th European Conference on African Studies African Dynamics in a Multipolar World ©2014 Centro de Estudos Internacionais do Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL) ISBN: 978-989-732-364-5 DONAS DA TERRA. HER-STORY ON FEMALE POWER AND AUTHORITY IN THE ZAMBEZI VALLEY, MOZAMBIQUE Carmeliza Soares da Costa Rosário University of Bergen [email protected] Donas da Terra. her-story on female power and authority in the Zambezi Valley, Mozambique! ! Abstract The Zambezi Valley, in Mozambique has been considered a sociological construct, more than geographical space. Portuguese colonial rule over this area, enacted initially from Goa, instituted the prazo system which was a system by which Crown land was leased to settlers for a fixed period. To attract more settlers, some prazos were given as dowry to girls who married Portuguese vassals; to be inherited through the female line, for at least three generations. These women became known as the Donas. Indigenous women in the region were also reportedly powerful and had administrative authority. Among the Maravi, the wife of the karonga had jurisdiction over part of the territory. Female chiefs were also reported to have existed. Among the Shona, the wives of the mutapa had their own territory and at times served as ambassadors of the empire. Despite their notoriety, historical texts mention these women marginally or as surrogates to male dominance. This is not a coincidence, but stems from a male perception of female roles. By constructing a text which generally ignores women’s role in history or relegates it to a secondary plane by comparison to their male counterparts, historians may have not made justice to the social, political and economic structures and inner workings of the Zambezi Valley complex, to borrow Mathews (1981) term.

The report is organized as a case-study. The first part, the case narrative, is sub- divided into 6 parts, and the second part is the teaching note. The teaching note is constituted by the four questions and their respective responses. Keywords: Construction, Mota-Engil, Financial crisis, diversification, internationalization 2 3 Mota-Engil: New prospects of growth: overcoming the financial crisis I. Case Narrative 1.
