The present research seeks to reflect on the degree of democraticity of Mozambican democracy and questions whether we have managed, as a society, to fulfill the promises of the 1990 constitution. The study also aims to discuss the relationship between democracy and Human Rights (HR) in Mozambique. Human rights are a historical achievement (Bobbio) that go hand in hand with democratic and liberal revolutions. In other words, the victory of democracies and liberal regimes is intertwined with the recognition, at least from a theoretical point of view, of human rights. In this context, we seek to understand, through the present study, to what extent the reasonable observance of democratic principles can be understood as an imperative for the protection of HR in Mozambique? We hope to understand the relevance of the reasonable observance of democratic principles for the protection of HR.
