- W566583162 abstract "Based on testimonies by Cape Verdean individuals with different social condition and institutional responsibility on one hand and, on the other hand, on the consideration of the historical burden and the policies adopted after the independence, this article is focused on the creation of a social conscience about poverty and the manifestations of micro-violence through the action of institutions and NGOs committed in the eradication of poverty and prevention of behaviors potentially generating and perpetuating micro-violence and social exclusion. The political environment and the perception of an involvement of Cape Verdeans in a common destiny are deemed crucial to the achievement of these purposes. When landing at Fogo Island, paying attention to the landscape formed by magma rivers, steep riversides and blackish-brown rocky soil, one asks himself how the local population survives. However, at the town of Sao Filipe, one starts to understand the agricultural potential of the island, which, owing to its ecologic diversity, supplies the Santiago market and aims to invest in exportation. In a way, the discovery of economic potentialities under a closer look resembles a metaphor to account for in the analysis of Cape Verdean realities, much diverse from island to island and, occasionally, inside each island. Despite the micro-insularity, the study about the prevalence and recent evolution of poverty and micro-violence manifestations in Cape Verde demands, as premise, the recognition of this immense economic and social diversity which, besides causing some perplexities, also complicates a comprehensive analysis. In some of the poorer islands, we can find, perhaps, an incidence of more acceptable social indicators and fewer social issues. In other words, find facts that, for a lack of visible social repercussions or for being related to local idiosyncrasies and principles, are not seen as social issues. In contrast, there will be fewer expectations for personal fulfillment. The richer and more populated islands, with more opportunities on account of their economic variety, have issues caused by an accelerated urbanization and high unemployment, which was around 18% in 2006 2 . In the long-term, this figure denotes an improvement, since in 1980 and 1990 the unemployment rates were respectively 28.8% and 25.9% 3 . The unemployment is high and, as acknowledged, has an influence on the roots of a resigned attitude, also anchored in the expected support from the family. It is simple to find people, in particular youngsters, who manifestly don’t have a job or claim to not have employment opportunities, since there is work only as civil" @default.
