ABSTRACT
This chapter is about the system of the administration of justice in Mozambique, carried out by the Project “Legal Situation of Women” in 1998 and 1999. . . . In 25 years, the country went from an exclusively statecontrolled justice system to a context of re/surfacing of old and new means of conflict resolution where previous spaces of mediation have gained visibility, multiplying and opening up new spaces for litigation. We are trying to analyze if this has brought qualitative changes for women’s access to justice or if, on the contrary, old subalternarities have been reinforced in a context where the roles and functions of women have not been reevaluated. . . .
