Abstract

The decolonization of Morocco, Western Sahara and Ecuatorial Guinea is conditional on its previous respective colonizing processes, the very different situation in these three countries and the subordination of such decolonization to particular circumstances, related to Spain (especially Sahara) and abroad (Morocco and Guinea). It is noteworthy to mention that Morocco achieved its independence soon (1956), as a consequence of some international agreements, and a relatively pacific self-determination. And on the other hand, Western Sahara, transferred to Morocco in 1976, is still suffering a neo-colonial situation. Finally, as regards Ecuatorial Guinea, this country has experienced a dramatic process under the Nguema family dictatorship after its independence in 1968.
