the decol6nization, by the politicizing of the Movement, the groping research of its own way, the recurrence to electoral geography. Groups of o!ficers adapted themselves wtth the utmost ease to successively contradictory statements, in deftnittve a sign of their refusal to assume power alone and of thetr wish to corne back to the technical functtons that guarantee thetr prtvtleges, exonerate them /rom the colonial past and do not exclude them as a pressure group. Riassunto Malgrado l'interruzione « rivoluztonarta » dt dtciotto mest, tra l'eserctto portoghese antertore al 25 aprtle 1974 e quello succestvo al 25 novembre 1975, esiste una netta continuttà. Il carattere ad un tempo corporativo e repubblicano delle forze armate, alla fine st è mantenuto, dopo i soprassaltt della decolontzzazione, della polittctzza• zione del Movimento, della rtcerca tentennante di una via propria, di ritorno alla geografia elettorale. L'estremà capacità det gruppi d'u!ftctali di adattarst a fraseologte successivamente contradditorte, riflette in definitiva il loro rifiuto di assumere da solt tl potere ed il rttorno ad un ruolo tecntco che garantisce i loro privilegi, li assolve dagli errort del passato colonialista, e non li esclude corne fattore di presstone. Except .in Britain where immigrants from Ireland and the Commonwealth enjoy full civil and political rights, the great majority of migrants workers are deprived of many civil rights. As long as their residence permits are restricted to a specific job they have no freedom of movement. They cannot vote and some countries also restrict their participation in labor unions activities. Thus a sizeable proportion of the working class in Western Europe has become disenfranchised. Attempts to separate the occupational from the civil status of a working population have been common in Africa but not in Europe. It has been claimed that the situation resembles a sort of colonization in reverse: in this case the natives are the masters while the migrants are the servants who are assigned the menial jobs no one else wants and who are victims of more or Jess total segregation. 30 Kurt B. Mayer in International Migration Review New York - Winter 1975.
