Psychological effects and consequences of the wars in Mozambique
Abstract
The present research work aims to analyse the sequels that wars leave on victims or their relatives. This research has restricted the focus to victims of the Homoine massacre of Inhambane Province, or their families, in Mozambique Republic, which took place on July 18th, 1987. The psychological consequences of the massacre were analysed in the research. 15 people were interviewed for this research, 9 men and 6 women, some of whom were victims of torture and / or kidnapping on the day of the massacre themselves, while others reported situations experienced by direct relatives. Based on the interviewees' answers to the questions on the survey card, and on the literature consulted, it was concluded that the Homoine massacre has brought psychological consequences on people, considering that this research was done more than 30 years after the event took place.
