Abstract
The Frente de Libertação Moçambique (FRELIMO, the Mozambique Liberation Front), which has been the party of government since the country’s independence in 1975, ended the one-party system in 1990. Yet, 30 years on, the party has continued as the dominant force in state and society, winning all six presidential and parliamentary elections (Weimer & Carrilho, 2017).
