Title of the thesis/dissertation: The European alternatives to the liberal economies after the First World War: the authoritarian and conservative economic models of Spain and Portugal and the centrally planned economy of Czechoslovakia Title of the thesis in English: The European alternatives to the liberal economies after the First World War: the authoritarian and conservative economic models of Spain and Portugal and the centrally planned economy of Czechoslovakia Thesis objective, procedure and The aim of the thesis is to demonstrate the outcomes of methods used: different economic policies which differed from the main liberal economic mo-del applied in the developed world in the second half of the 20th century. Referred economies are Francoist Spain, Salazarist Portugal and communist Czechoslovakia. Among others, the comparison will include following indicators: GDP growth, poverty eduction, employ-ment level, an amount of consumption, the value of investments in all productive sectors, the overall evolution of production, savings and public spending. For a better understanding of strength and weak-nesses of alternative systems and to obtain an insight into their (dis-)function, a study of different economic and productive methods will be employed. THE FRAMEWORK At the beginning of thesis, the political and economic situation in Eu-rope after the First World War will be analysed. This is followed by a discussion of the corporatist and authoritarian economies of Francoist Spain and Salazarist Portugal, focusing on the welfare system of the mentioned countries and the political and economic choices. In the following chapter, the Soviet economic and productive system imposed in the countries of Eastern Europe is discussed with the focus on the planned economy of Czechoslovakia. Finally the paper offers a description and comparison of various economic indicators and po-licies in these three countries to understand similarities, differences. In the end, the results of two different concepts are discussed.

Ing. František Svoboda, Ph.D. Year of the defence: 2017 Annotation The goal of the submitted thesis is to analyse three anti-liberal political and economic model that existed in Europe from the first part of 20th century to the end of it: the Salazarism, the Francoism and the communist model of Czechoslovakia. The first part of the thesis is about the political and economic situation between 1918 and 1945 in the whole Europe, the second chapter is focused on the case of Portugal (analysing Salazar’s government using original and objective notices), the third one is concentrated on Francoist Spain (underlining the positive influence of Franco’s government refusing fallacious and partisans opinion about his policies), the fourth part analyses the completely different politic-economic model of Czechoslovakia (from its creation in 1918 to the ‘60s) and the last one reunified in a single chapter the protagonists of the thesis, to understand the efficiency (or inefficiency) of their anti-liberal economic and political models and to underline what happened when they have begun the road to the liberalism (even joining the European Union). In the conclusion of the thesis the stress is put on the economic efficiency and on the great results obtained by Franco and Salazar, while the analysis show that socialism had reached only acceptable social results. Keywords Portugal, Salazar, Spain, Franco, Czechoslovakia, Masaryk, Ota Šik, autocracy, economy, GDP, wellness, social policies, welfare, minimum wage, Germany, economic reform, economic development.

  • Dissidência Política De Henrique Galvão Em “Carta Aberta a Salazar”
    Revista Cantareira criada e mantida por alunos da área de História da UFF ISSN 1677 7794 O Santinho em cuecas: dissidência política de Henrique Galvão em “Carta Aberta a Salazar” (1959) 15a Por André Luiz dos Santos Vargas edição Email: [email protected] Mestrando e bolsista CAPES pelo PPGH/UFG Resumo: Uma das mais importantes obras de Henrique Galvão foi “Carta Aberta a Salazar”, pela qual expôs seu pensamento político de dissidente e opositor do regime em Portugal. Em 1947 ainda era homem do governo e publicou o “Relatório de Huíla” no qual denunciara corrupções políticas e crimes contra os povos africanos das colônias portuguesas, mas foi com a Carta – escrita enquanto estava preso – que Galvão expôs seu pensamento de forma mais informal: com sarcasmo, ataques ao regime, ataques pessoais a Salazar, denúncias e muito ressen- timento. A obra foi censurada pela PIDE e vários exemplares foram apreendidos em Portugal, mas os publicados na Venezuela e Brasil sobreviveram e hoje a carta-aberta é um importante documento para se compreender a oposição ao Estado Novo. Palavras-chave: Henrique Galvão; salazarismo; escrita de si. Abstract: One of the most important works of Henrique Galvão was “Carta Aberta a Salazar” (Open Letter to Salazar) in which he exposes his dissident political thought of the regime in Portugal. In 1947 he was still a government’s man when he published the “Huíla Report” in which political corruptions and crimes against the African peoples in the Portuguese colonies were denounced. But in the Carta – written while he was prisioner – he exposed his political thought by an informally way: with sarcasm, attacks against the regime, personal offences to Salazar, denounces and a lot of resentment.

  • During the Second World War
    DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR _______________StK______________ SK MARSHALL LEE MILLER Stanford University Press STANFORD, CALIFORNIA I 975 Stanford University Press Stanford, California © 1975 by the Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University Printed in the United States of America is b n 0-8047-0870-3 LC 74-82778 To my grandparents Lee and Edith Rankin and Evelyn Miller Preface SOS h e p o l it ic a l history of modern Bulgaria has been greatly ne­ T glected by Western scholars, and the important period of the Second World War has hardly been studied at all. The main reason for this has no doubt been the difficulty of obtaining documentary material on the wartime period. Although the Communist regime of Bulgaria has published a large number of books and monographs dealing with the country’s role in the war, these works have been concerned mostly with magnifying the importance of the Bulgarian Communist Party (BKP) and the partisan struggle. Despite this bias, useful information can be found in these works when other sources are available to provide perspective and verification. Within recent years, German, American, British, and other diplo­ matic and intelligence reports from the wartime years have become available, and the easing of travel restrictions in Bulgaria has facili­ tated research there. As recently as 1958, when the doctoral thesis of Marin V. Pundeff was presented (“Bulgaria’s Place in Axis Policy, 1936-1944”), there was very little material on the period after June 1941. It is now possible to fill in many of the important gaps in our knowledge of Bulgaria during the entire war.

  • The Engine of the Republic: the Presidential Cars PRESENTATION
    The Engine of the Republic: The Presidential Cars PRESENTATION The museum collection The Engine of the Republic – The Presidential Cars came about as a result of a challenge issued by the Museum of Transport and Communications to the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic. The challenge, which was immediately accepted, was to create a permanent exhibit that would make it possible for the public to visit, assembled and preserved, one of the most important collections of cars in the country: those that have been in the service of its presidents since the founding of the Republic, over 100 years ago. This collection also reflects an awareness that the vehicles exhibited here are part of a historical heritage. As such, they are no longer disposed of once decommissioned, but become part of the collection of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic. The job of recording, locating and recovering the cars that were used by the presidents of the Republic, an ongoing task, has been a priority of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic practically since its inception, as already demonstrated by a group of temporary exhibitions: beginning in 2004, to coincide with the opening of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic, and continuing over the course of subsequent years, in Porto, Lisbon, Figueira da Foz and Guimarães. Siting this collection in Porto also contributes to the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic’s aim of decentralising its activity, bringing part of its collection to the north of the country, a region with a great tradition of car collecting.

  • Small State Autonomy in Hierarchical Regimes. the Case of Bulgaria in the German and Soviet Spheres of Influence 1933 – 1956
    Small State Autonomy in Hierarchical Regimes. The Case of Bulgaria in the German and Soviet Spheres of Influence 1933 – 1956 By Vera Asenova Submitted to Central European University Doctoral School of Political Science, Public Policy and International Relations In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Prof. Julius Horváth Budapest, Hungary November 2013 Statement I hereby state that the thesis contains no materials accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. The thesis contains no materials previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgement is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Vera Asenova ………………... ii Abstract This thesis studies international cooperation between a small and a big state in the framework of administered international trade regimes. It discusses the short-term economic goals and long-term institutional effects of international rules on domestic politics of small states. A central concept is the concept of authority in hierarchical relations as defined by Lake, 2009. Authority is granted by the small state in the course of interaction with the hegemonic state, but authority is also utilized by the latter in order to attract small partners and to create positive expectations from cooperation. The main research question is how do small states trade their own authority for economic gains in relations with foreign governments and with local actors. This question is about the relationship between international and domestic hierarchies and the structural continuities that result from international cooperation. The contested relationship between foreign authority and domestic institutions is examined through the experience of Bulgaria under two different international trade regimes – the German economic sphere in the 1930’s and the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA) in the early 1950’s.

  • Portugal, O Estado Novo, António De Oliveira Salazar
    PORTUGAL, O ESTADO NOVO, ANTÓNIO DE OLIVEIRA SALAZAR E A ONU: POSICIONAMENTO(S) E (I)LEGALIDADES NO PÓS II GUERRA MUNDIAL (1945-1970) Ana Campina e Sérgio Tenreiro Tomás Resumo: A análise do discurso e da retórica de António de Oliveira Salazar, e do Estado Novo, as Relações Internacionais e Diplomáticas portuguesas são reveladoras da disparidade entre a imagem criada pelo discurso e pela realidade. Portugal, pelo seu posicionamento geopolítico, desempenhou um importante papel durante a II Guerra Mundial pela Neutralidade Colaborante, com os Aliados e com Hitler. As Relações Internacionais com a ONU, como com outras Organizações, foram diplomáticas mas complexas pelo Império Colonial. Salazar não contestou nem se sentiu obrigado a implementar as medidas solicitadas. Com a Guerra Colonial Portugal recebeu diversas “chamadas de atenção”, em particular pela ONU, que ignorou e em nada mudando a luta armada, com resultados catastróficos para todos e com a morte de milhares de militares, assim como com consequências físicas e psicológicas para os sobreviventes. Indubitavelmente Salazar gerou uma imagem díspar da realidade na qual se violavam os Direitos Fundamentais e Humanos.
