The work connects the historical, economical and geopolitical contest and analyses direct experiences caught from people who lived in the zones controlled by the UNITA Party in that period. The thesis wants to give a hole vision of the economic interests in charge and of the social-economic damage provoked to Angola by the diamond resources using the application of the LCA method and of the anthropologic interview method.
