Mozambique gained independence from Portugal in 1975 after a long and brutal
colonial rule. This newly independent nation faced several challenges, including an
economic system that was heavily dependent on foreign powers and a lack of
infrastructure. This essay critically discusses Mozambique's economic inheritance and
the subsequent expansion policies implemented post-independence. It examines the
successes and failures of these policies, their impact on the country's socio-economic
development, and the lessons that can be learned from Mozambique's experience.
I. Economic Inheritance:
A. Colonial Legacy:
Mozambique's economic system under Portuguese colonial rule was primarily focused
on serving the interests of Portugal, leaving little room for local development. The
colonial rulers exploited natural resources such as minerals, timber, and cash crops,
contributing to the underdevelopment of Mozambique and creating a skewed
economic structure.
B. Dependency on Foreign Aid:
Post-independence, Mozambique faced a daunting economic challenge due to its
heavy reliance on foreign aid and borrowing. The inherited debt burden limited the
country's ability to invest in productive sectors and hindered its economic growth.
II. Economic Expansion Policies:
