This post discusses the political history of Cape Verde from the early and colonial era and furthermore their independence and politics.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The recorded history of Cape Verde begins with the Portuguese discovery of the island in 1458. Possible early references to Cape Verde date back at least 2,000 years.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

EARLY HISTORY AND COLONIAL RULE<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Although there is no conclusive evidence that the islands were inhabited before the arrival of the Portuguese, cases may be made for visits by Phoenicians, Moors, and Africans in previous centuries. It was Portuguese navigators such as Diogo Gomes and Diogo Afonso, Venetian explorer Alvise Ca\u2019 da Mosto, and Genoese navigators such as Ant\u00f3nio and Bart\u00f3lomeu da Noli, however, who began to report on the islands in the mid-15th century, shortly before a plan of active colonization and settlement was launched.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In 1462 the first settlers from Portugal landed on S\u00e3o Tiago (Santiago), subsequently founding there the oldest European city in the tropics\u2014Ribeira Grande (now Cidade Velha). Sugar was planted in an attempt to emulate the success of the earlier settlement of Madeira. Cabo Verde\u2019s dry climate was less favorable, but, with the development of the transatlantic slave trade, the importance and wealth of the islands increased.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Cabo Verde served an increasingly important role as an offshore entrep\u00f4t with the development of the triangular trade, by which manufactured goods from Europe were traded for enslaved people, who were sold in turn to plantations in the New World in exchange for the raw materials produced there; with these the ships returned home. Cabo Verde was thus a center for the trade of cheap manufactured items, firearms, rum, cloth, and the like in exchange for enslaved people, ivory, and gold. Cabo Verde was especially known for its pano cloths, usually constructed of six strips of fabric made from cotton that was grown, dyed dark indigo, and woven on narrow looms by people who were enslaved in Cabo Verde; the cloths were a valuable form of currency for the slave trade on the mainland. Tens of thousands of enslaved people were exported from the coast to the islands and then on to the New World, especially to northern Brazil.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Portuguese efforts to monopolize exploration and trade along the western African coast were disrupted by those who saw the potential of the wealth of Africa for their own interests, and smuggling was rife. Although the slave trade was controlled through the crown-issued monopoly contracts, in the late 16th century the English and Spanish began to wear away the Portuguese monopoly. In addition, the prosperity of Ribeira Grande attracted pirates, who attacked the city in 1541. The English later attacked it twice\u2014in 1585 and 1592\u2014the first time under the command of Francis Drake. After a French attack in 1712, it was decided to move the capital to Praia. With the transfer officially complete in 1770, Ribeira Grande began its long slow decline.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The waning of the slave trade\u2014the Portuguese rulers and merchants reluctantly abandoned the industry in 1876\u2014coupled with increasing drought slowly sapped the islands\u2019 prosperity. In the early 1800s Cabo Verde experienced not only recurrent drought and famine but government corruption and maladministration as well. In the mid-1850s the islands enjoyed a period of economic optimism as the age of steam replaced the age of sail, and large long-distance oceanic vessels needed strategic coaling stations such as Mindelo could provide. As a result, Cabo Verde was briefly the site of great port activity, before the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 cut severely into this business. For the wider population there was little relief or improvement, and emigration from the islands became the norm: faced with the prospect of drought and starvation at home, the poorest Cabo Verdeans commonly traveled south to work as agricultural labourers picking bananas and cocoa beans in Sao Tome and Principe; others found maritime work on whaling ships.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

CABO VERDE IN THE 20TH CENTURY<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The long-standing joint colonial administration of Cabo Verde and Guinea-Bissau was terminated in 1879, when both became separate Portuguese territories. Amid the contemporary African decolonization movement, their status was modified in 1951 to \u201coverseas provinces,\u201d and their inhabitants were officially granted full Portuguese citizenship in 1961. Not perceiving these changes as meaningful, however, some members of the colonial population began to agitate for complete independence from Portugal for both Guinea-Bissau and Cabo Verde. One such group, the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cabo Verde (Partido Africano da Independ\u00eancia da Guin\u00e9 e Cabo Verde; PAIGC), was founded in Bissau in 1956 and headed by Am\u00edlcar Cabral, a gifted revolutionary leader and theoretician. Its goal was to achieve independence by using peaceful means of protest. In 1959, however, the Portuguese responded with violence and arrests, which convinced the PAIGC that only a path of armed struggle would be sufficient to end the colonial and fascist regime. After a period of military training and political preparation, the PAIGC launched its armed campaign in January 1963 and showed steady military progress thereafter. On January 20, 1973, Cabral was assassinated, and later that year, on September 24, Guinea-Bissau declared independence. This event\u2014compounded by the other lengthy wars in Portuguese colonies\u2014precipitated a crisis in Portugal that resulted in a successful coup there on April 25, 1974. Portugal\u2019s new government soon began negotiating with African nationalist movements.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

INDEPENDENT CABO VERDE<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Full independence was achieved in Cabo Verde on July 5, 1975. Aristides Pereira, the PAIGC secretary-general, and Pedro Pires, a military commander, became the first president and prime minister, respectively. A military coup in Guinea-Bissau in 1980, deeply resented in Cabo Verde, broke the political unity between the two countries. The PAIGC subsequently split, with the Cabo Verdean branch thereafter known as the African Party for the Independence of Cabo Verde (Partido Africano para a Independ\u00eancia de Cabo Verde; PAICV). Pereira and Pires remained in power in the one-party state until PAICV dissidents were permitted to form a second party, the Movement for Democracy (Movimento para a Democracia; MpD), which was organized from as early as March 1990 and emerged victorious in the two-party elections of January 1991. In the presidential election held the following month, Antonio Mascarenhas Monteiro, backed by the MpD, won a decisive victory; he was reelected in February 1996 in an election marked by a low turnout and in which he was the only candidate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

POLITICAL CONDITIONS<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Following independence in 1975, the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde (PAIGC) established a one-party political system. This became the African Party for the Independence of Cape Verde (PAICV) in 1980, as Cape Verde sought to distance itself from Guinea-Bissau, following unrest in that country.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In 1991, following growing pressure for a more pluralistic society, multi-party elections were held for the first time. The opposition party, the Movement for Democracy (Movimento para a Democracia, MpD), won the legislative elections, and formed the government. The MpD candidate also defeated the PAICV candidate in the presidential elections. In the 1996 elections, the MpD increased their majority, but in the 2001 the PAICV returned to power, winning both the Legislative and the Presidential elections.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Generally, Cape Verde enjoys a stable democratic system. The elections have been considered free and fair, there is a free press, and the rule of law is respected by the State. In acknowledgment of this, Freedom House granted Cape Verde two first places in its annual Freedom in the World report, a perfect score. It is the only African country to receive this score. The Economist Intelligence Unit rated Cape Verde a “flawed democracy” in 2022.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

POLITICS OF CAPE VERDE<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Politics of Cape Verde takes place in a framework of a semi-presidential representative democratic republic, whereby the Prime Minister of Cape Verde is the head of government and the President of the Republic of Cape Verde is the head of state, and of a multi-party system. Executive power is exercised by the president and the government. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the National Assembly. The judiciary is independent of the executive and the legislature. The constitution, first approved in 1980 and substantially revised in 1992, forms the basis of government organization. It declares that the government is the “organ that defines, leads, and executes the general internal and external policy of the country” and is responsible to the National Assembly.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
