Résumé anglais Julien Mallet, Urban Music and the Political Construction of ldentity in Angola The nature of Portuguese colonization explains the important role played by mestizos in the formation of national identity. Some have chosen music as the expression of an Angolese culture and as a form of political struggle. Analysis of a musical repertoire reveals characteristics of a urban music created during the 1940s which is intimately a part of this process. Study of the musician « Liceu » Vieira Dias shows how this music was part of a far larger process. Placed within the social and political context of Luanda, it is clear how musical creation can contribute to the formation of collective identity.
