  • The Concept of Family Farming in the Portuguese Political Discourse
    Article The Concept of Family Farming in the Portuguese Political Discourse Isabel Dinis 1,2 1 Instituto Politécnico de Coimbra, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal 2 CERNAS - Research Centre for Natural Resources, Environment and Society, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal; [email protected] Received: 30 May 2019; Accepted: 11 July 2019; Published: 12 July 2019 Abstract: Although several countries have outlined national and multi-criteria definitions, family farming is not well defined in most countries including Portugal, making it difficult to assess its real importance as well as the reasons underlying the design and the success/failure of particular policies. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the framing of family farming in the Portuguese political discourse by applying content analysis to a range of national policies and planning documents. The results show little reference to family farming in political documents and a conceptualization of family farming made in antagonism to professional or entrepreneurial farmers. Keywords: family farming; content analysis; agricultural policy; rural 1. Introduction Following the adhesion of Portugal to the European Economic Community (EEC) in January 1986, the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) was adopted by the country, which led to profound socio-economic changes in Portuguese agriculture. Among other things, a large amount of structural funds was made available to support the modernization of agriculture, to promote structural adjustment and finally to transform small family farmers into entrepreneurs. Since its beginning, CAP was designed and developed to support family farmers, the dominant typology in most Member States. As pointed out by Davidova and Thomson (2014), the government created an infrastructure that allowed small family farms to capture organisational-scale effects, without losing their specific features.

Implemented ‘against the tide’, in the mid-1950s, with Angola’s African anti-colonial movement already under way, these schemes contained numerous contradictions. Under a modernising agenda, the Estado Novo dictatorship created the colonatos of Cela and Cunene, with the expressed purpose of reproducing Portuguese rural villages in Africa, settling poor Portuguese peasants and perpetuating colonial rule. Drawing on a range of primary sources from Portuguese colonial and scientific archives and the literature on Angola, I analyse the relationship between policymakers and the agricultural engineers mobilised to study the soils and its agricultural suitability in the regions chosen for the colonatos.

  • The Paleodemography of Central Portugal and the Mesolithic-Neolithic Transition
    PALEODEMOGRAPHY OF CENTRAL PORTUGAL 1 The Paleodemography of Central Portugal and the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition MARY JACKES Department of Anthropology University of Waterloo Waterloo, ON N2L 3G1, Canada [email protected] CHRISTOPHER MEIKLEJOHN Department of Anthropology University of Winnipeg Winnipeg, MB R3B 2E9, Canada [email protected] Abstract Newly available information on the excavation of the Portuguese Mesolithic shell middens, Cabeço da Arruda and Moita do Sebastião, has allowed reassessment of the paleodemography of the sites. Following the restudy of Arruda and an examination of Moita site structure, we now discuss the problem of arriving at a minimum number of individuals (MNI) for Moita and use the age distribution of the dead to estimate the total fertility rate (TFR). We confirm the difference between Moita and Arruda and note their divergence from the Neolithic site of Casa da Moura. Our method of estimating TFR, deriving from the use of West model tables, is explained and is tested by reference to historical data sets and by calculation of equivalent demographic values using the Brass relational table approach. Our focus is the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition and we establish the context of demographic change in the late Mesolithic and early Neolithic of central Portugal by reference to changing environmental, nutritional and disease conditions. The low level of population growth at Moita would have increased during the occupation of Arruda. However, subsequent changes in climate and sea levels led to unfavorable conditions and we hypothesize that the Tagus lowlands were abandoned in favor of healthier uplands where there was a rebound and an increase in population growth in response to changed lifeways.

Introduction This chapter seeks to deepen the current state of knowledge concerning Portuguese consumer cooperatives. The analysis is focused on the period between the first legislation on co-operatives promulgated in 1867 and the fall of the dictatorship in 1974. Portugal is not considered an example of success in consumer co-operation. Instead, successive generations of co-operators have stressed the difficulties experienced in developing a sustainable and integrated co-operative movement.
