Exploração, Desenvolvimento ou Luso-tropicalismo? Representações sociais do colonialismo através da perspetiva de três grupos geracionais portugueses

Abstract

A presente dissertação tem como objetivo compreender quais as representações sociais do colonialismo presentes na sociedade portuguesa atual, comparando diferentes gerações de participantes: a geração mais nova; a geração intermediária; e a geração mais antiga. Estas representações são analisadas numa amostra de 229 participantes de nacionalidade portuguesa, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e 81 anos. O que queremos compreender é se existem diferenças significativas entre as gerações nas seguintes dimensões: Representações Sociais do Colonialismo enquanto Exploração vs. Desenvolvimento, e Luso-tropicalismo. Os resultados obtidos apontam para uma maior representação do colonialismo enquanto Exploração por parte da geração mais nova, em comparação com a geração mais antiga. Isto revela uma maior propensão da geração mais nova para associar o colonialismo a aspetos negativos como a Exploração, e uma maior tendência para a geração mais antiga associar o colonialismo a fatores mais positivos. A geração intermediária revelou uma maior tendência de identificação com o Luso-tropicalismo. De facto, existem diferenças entre as três gerações estudadas no que diz respeito às representações sociais do colonialismo, o que, potencialmente, pode ser explicado pela diferença na disseminação de informação acerca do colonialismo nosperíodos de socialização de cada uma das três gerações, fator este que influencia a forma como o colonialismo é percecionado pelos diferentes indivíduos e suas respetivasgerações.

This master's thesis has as a primary goal to understand which social representations of colonialism are present in the current Portuguese society, by comparing different generations of participants: the younger generation; the intermediate generation; and the older generation. These representations are analyzed in a sample of 229 participants of Portuguese nationality, aged between 18 and 81 years old. What we want to understand is whether there are significant differences between generations in the following dimensions: Social Representations of Colonialism as Exploitation vs. Development, and Luso-tropicalism. The results obtained point to a greater representation of colonialism as Exploitation by the younger generation, compared to the older generation. This reveals a greater tendency for the younger generation to associate colonialism with negative aspects such as Exploitation, and a greater tendency for the older generation to associate colonialism with more positive factors. The intermediate generation revealed a greater tendency to identify with Luso-tropicalism. In fact, there are differences between the three generations studied with regard to the social representations of colonialism, which, potentially, can be explained by the difference in the dissemination of information about colonialism in the periods of socialization of each of the three generations, a factor thatinfluences the way colonialism is perceived by different individuals and their respective generations.
