A evolução constitucional da República de Cabo Verde e a concretização dos direitos fundamentais sociais.

Abstract

The Republic of Cape Verde, a young state in constant development, has undergone a remarkable evolution in its constitutional structure since its independence. This study aims to answer the academic question of how Social Fundamental Rights have evolved in the Republic of Cape Verde and what are the public policies that guarantee these rights. Its relevance lies in the scarcity of research dedicated to fundamental rights, in particular social rights, in the Cape Verdean context. The dissertation seeks to understand how the State of Cape Verde has sought to ensure the effectiveness of these rights through the implementation of public policies. Using a deductive approach and the use of documentary research techniques, with doctrinal references, relevant laws and regulations, historical and critical analysis plays a fundamental role in contextualizing the development of social rights and the constitutional evolution of the country. Preliminary results indicate that the public policies implemented, especially those related to health, education and social security, have played an effective role in improving the social conditions of the Cape Verdean population. This study not only fills a significant gap in the field of Cape Verdean legal research, but also sheds light on how public policies can be successful in promoting well-being and guaranteeing citizens rights. The dissertation contributes to the understanding of the constitutional evolution and the realization of social fundamental rights in Cape Verde, offering valuable insights that can be applied not only locally, but also in similar legal contexts.
