Resumen
This article aims to present how the philosopher Severino Ngoenha puts Mozambican philosophy at the service of reflection on its temporality and historical context, with a view to thinking about Mozambique 's democratic process and presenting the necessary foundations for a Mozambican dimension of Democracy. In this perspective, this work, based on his works The Times of Philosophy: Mozambican Philosophy and Democracy and African Philosophy: From Independence to Freedoms presents, through a triple contractualism, the foundations proposed by the philosopher so that Mozambique conquer an institutional model of Democracy. In conclusion, we consider that African philosophy can be understood as a fundamental instrument in the construction of a better future project for the African continent, as for Mozambique, since it can provide other alternatives for African peoples to move towards Freedom.This article aims to present how the philosopher Severino Ngoenha puts Mozambican philosophy at the service of reflection on its temporality and historical context, with a view to thinking about Mozambique 's democratic process and presenting the necessary foundations for a Mozambican dimension of Democracy.

O presente artigo visa apresentar como o filósofo Severino Ngoenha coloca a filosofia moçambicana a serviço da reflexão sobre sua temporalidade e contexto histórico, tendo em vista pensar o processo democrático de Moçambique e apresentar os fundamentos necessários para uma dimensão moçambicana da Democracia. Nesta perspectiva, este trabalho amparado em suas obras Os Tempos da Filosofia: Filosofia e Democracia Moçambicana e Filosofia Africana: Das independências às Liberdades apresenta, através de um triplo contratualismo, os fundamentos propostos pelo filósofo para que Moçambique conquiste um modelo institucional de Democracia. Em tom conclusivo, consideramos que a filosofia africana pode ser compreendida como um instrumento fundamental na construção de um projeto de futuro melhor para o continente africano, como para Moçambique, pois ela pode fornecer outras alternativas para que os povos africanos caminhem rumo à Liberdade.
