Planting Power ... Formation in Portugal.Pdf
Promotoren: Dr. F. von Benda-Beckmann Hoogleraar in het recht, meer in het bijzonder het agrarisch recht van de niet-westerse gebieden. Ir. A. van Maaren Emeritus hoogleraar in de boshuishoudkunde. Preface The history of Portugal is, like that of many other countries in Europe, one of deforestation and reafforestation. Until the eighteenth century, the reclamation of land for agriculture, the expansion of animal husbandry (often on communal grazing grounds or baldios), and the increased demand for wood and timber resulted in the gradual disappearance of forests and woodlands. This tendency was reversed only in the nineteenth century, when planting of trees became a scientifically guided and often government-sponsored activity. The reversal was due, on the one hand, to the increased economic value of timber (the market's "invisible hand" raised timber prices and made forest plantation economically attractive), and to the realization that deforestation had severe impacts on the environment. It was no accident that the idea of sustainability, so much in vogue today, was developed by early-nineteenth-century foresters. Such is the common perspective on forestry history in Europe and Portugal. Within this perspective, social phenomena are translated into abstract notions like agricultural expansion, the invisible hand of the market, and the public interest in sustainably-used natural environments. In such accounts, trees can become gifts from the gods to shelter, feed and warm the mortals (for an example, see: O Vilarealense, (Vila Real), 12 January 1961). However, a closer look makes it clear that such a detached account misses one key aspect: forests serve not only public, but also particular interests, and these particular interests correspond to specific social groups. -

A Estratégia De Informação De Marcello Caetano O Último
A estratégia de informação de Marcello Caetano o último governante do Estado Novo The information strategy of Marcello Caetano, the last ruler of Estado Novo La estrategia de información de Marcello Caetano el último gobernante del Estado Nuevo https://doi.org/10.14195/2183-5462_35_15 Ana Cabrera Instituto de História Contemporânea Resumo Este artigo analisa a estratégia de informação levada a cabo por Marcello Caetano quando, em setembro de 1968, substituiu Salazar na presidência do Conselho de Ministros. Esta estratégia consistiu na realização de acontecimen- tos que lhe assegurassem uma boa visibilidade na imprensa, afirmação de uma relação mais próxima com os jornalistas, e realização das conversas em famí- lia teledifundidas. A investigação assenta no estudo do perfil político de Marcello Caetano suporta- da por fontes (cartas, textos, livros e entrevistas) e na análise de jornais da época (A Capital, Diário de Lisboa, Diário Popular, Diário de Notícias) no período compreendi- do entre setembro de 1968 e setembro de 1969. Como conclusão assinala-se que a construção da imagem deste político na imprensa favoreceu o início da sua gover- nação através da construção de uma personalidade política, social e familiar bem distinta da de Salazar. Palavras-chave Marcello Caetano; estratégia de informação; imprensa; Estado Novo; censura Abstract This paper examines the information strategy followed by Marcello Caetano since September 1968, when he succeeded Salazar in the president of Council of Ministers. This strategy implied setting up events capable of ensuring him a good visibility on the media, establishing a closer relationship with journalists, and broadcasting his own TV programme “conversations in family”. -

Portugal sobreviveu na periferia europeia às forças mais poderosas que sacudiram o século XX: as guerras mundiais, as ditaduras e a descoloniza- ção. A narrativa desses processos já seria um desafio imponente. Mais difícil, porém, é filtrá-los pelas lentes de uma vida singular, ainda que a de um homem que viria a desempenhar papel de relevo na política de seu país. Em 600 páginas, com estilo límpido, o historiador Francisco Carlos Palo- manes Martinho compôs uma obra que já é referência.

Independence, Intervention, and Internationalism Angola and the International System, 1974–1975
Independence, Intervention, and Internationalism Angola and the International System, 1974–1975 ✣ Candace Sobers Mention the Cold War and thoughts instinctively turn to Moscow, Washing- ton, DC, and Beijing. Fewer scholars examine the significant Cold War strug- gles that took place in the African cities of Luanda, Kinshasa, and Pretoria. Yet in 1975 a protracted war of national liberation on the African continent escalated sharply into a major international crisis. Swept up in the momen- tum of the Cold War, the fate of the former Portuguese colony of Angola captured the attention of policymakers from the United States to Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo), Colombia to Luxembourg. The struggle over Angolan independence from Portugal was many things: the culmination of sixteen years of intense anti-colonial struggle and the launch of 28 years of civil war, a threat to white minority rule in southern Africa, and another battle on the long road to ending empire and colonialism. It was also a strug- gle to define and create a viable postcolonial state and to carry out a radical transformation of the sociopolitical structure of Angolan society. Recent scholarship on Angolan independence has provided an impres- sive chronology of the complicated saga yet has less to say about the wider consequences and ramifications of a crisis that, though located in southern Africa, was international in scope. During the anti-colonial struggle, U.S. sup- port reinforced the Portuguese metropole, contiguous African states harbored competing revolutionaries, and great and medium powers—including Cuba, China, and South Africa—provided weapons, combat troops, and mercenar- ies to the three main national liberation movements. -
197 from Dictatorship to Democracy in Portugal
ISSN2039Ͳ2117MediterraneanJournalofSocialSciencesVol.3(6)March2012 From Dictatorship to Democracy in Portugal: The use of Communication as a Political Strategy Célia Maria Taborda da Silva Ph.D., Professor of Contemporary History Lusófona University of Porto, Portugal Email:[email protected] Abstract: Like in every Fascist Regime, with its wide range of limited freedom, in Portugal, the New State forbade the freedom of speech and started controlling the Media, by using them to promote the Regime. The political speeches by António de Oliveira Salazar with the old political ideas of “God”, Homeland” and “Family” of the authoritarian Regimes became state dogmas from the thirties of the 20th century on. As Salazar stated, “ Only what we know that exists truly exists”. According to this thought a great propaganda strategy of absolute certainties was created. The State even created a Secretariat for the National Propaganda which aimed to frame the social everyday life into the spirit of the Regime. From the forties on, due to international happenings there is a decrease of the ideological propaganda speech of the Government, since the main aim was the political survival. The fall of Dictatorship, in April 1974, made the freedom of speech possible. However there wasn’t a State impartiality regarding the Media. The revolution strategists immediately used the radio and the newspapers to spread news pro the political rebellion and the television to present themselves to the country. It is obvious that with the abolition of censorship there was a radical change in the system of political communication. But a long time of Democracy was necessary for the Media not to suffer political and governmental pressure. -
Portugal's History Since 1974
Portugal’s history since 1974 Stewart Lloyd-Jones ISCTE-Lisbon AN IMPERIAL LEGACY The Carnation Revolution (Revolução dos Cravos) that broke out on the morning of 25 April 1974 has had a profound effect on Portuguese society, one that still has its echoes today, almost 30 years later, and which colours many of the political decision that have been, and which continue to be made. During the authoritarian regime of António de Oliveira Salazar (1932-68) and his successor, Marcello Caetano (1968-74), Portugal had existed in a world of its own construction. Its vast African empire (Angola, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau, São Tomé e Príncipe, and Cape Verde) was consistently used to define Portugal’s self-perceived identity as being ‘in, but not of Europe’. Within Lisbon’s corridors of power, the dissolution of the other European empires was viewed with horror, and despite international opprobrium and increasing isolation, the Portuguese dictatorship was in no way prepared to follow the path of decolonisation. As Salazar was to defiantly declare, Portugal would stand ‘proudly alone’, indeed, for a regime that had consciously legitimated itself by ‘turning its back on Europe’, there could be no alternative course of action. Throughout the 1960s and early-1970s, the Portuguese people were to pay a high price for the regime’s determination to remain in Africa. From 1961 onwards, while the world’s attention was focused on events in south-east Asia, Portugal was fighting its own wars. By the end of the decade, the Portuguese government was spending almost half of its GNP on sustaining a military presence of over 150,000 troops in Africa. -

The Official Inaugural Speech of Royal College of Nobles in Lisbon (1766)
Ana Isabel Correia Martins* The Official Inaugural Speech of Royal College of Nobles in Lisbon (1766): A Rhetorical Performance Supporting a Pedagogical Purpose DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12775/LC.2019.045 Abstract: The Europe of the 18th century manifested a keen interest on the education of nobles and Portugal was in line with this current tendency, founding the Royal College of Nobles in Lisbon. My main interest is the study of the official inaugural speech, delivered on 19th March of 1766 by Michael Antonius Cierae, a Latin discourse, never completely translated or deeply studied1. This 13 rhetorical performance is an important source to study the new pedagogical program conceived by of the King Joseph I and his minister José Sebastiăo Carvalho e Melo, also known as Marquês de Pombal, after the expulsion of Jesuits. This discourse represents a broad view of political philosophy and for this reason, I decided to divide the present article in three parts. First, I circumscribe the political and historical context in Europe, then analyse the creation’s circumstances of this Royal College, and shed light on the rhetorical structure of speech, its subjects and topoi articulated under 4(32) 2019 all partes orationis. I expect to recognize in which way this official speech reveals the pedagogical philosophy to understand the political polemics and controversies of this period in Portugal. Keywords: rhetorical performance, public speech, Royal College of Nobles, political philosophy * Professor in Portuguese Department of University of Rennes 2 (France) and fully integrated researcher at Center of Classical Studies and Humanities in University of Coimbra (Portugal).
