  • Hygiea Internationalis
    Regional Dynamics and Social Diversity – Portugal in the 21st Century Teresa Ferreira Rodrigues Introduction hrough its history Portugal always presented regional differences concerning population distribution, as well as fertility and mortality trends. Local T specificities related to life and death levels reflect diverse socioeconomic conditions and also different health coverage. We will try to diagnose the main concerns and future challenges related to those regional differences, using quantitative and qualitative data on demographic trends, well-being average levels and health services offer. We want to demonstrate that this kind of academic researches can be useful to policy makers, helping them: (1) to implement regional directed policies; (2) to reduce internal diversity; and (3) to improve quality of life in the most excluded areas. Our first issue consists in measuring the link between Portuguese modernization and asymmetries on social well-being levels1. Today Portugal faces some modera- tion on population growth rates, a total dependency on migration rates, both exter- nal and internal, as well as aged structures. But national average numbers are totally different from those at a regional level, mainly if using non demographic indicators, such as average living patterns or purchase power2. The paper begins with a short diagnosis on the huge demographic and socioeco- nomic changes of the last decades. In the second part we analyze the extent of the link between those changes and regional convergence on well-being levels. Finally, we try to determine the extent of regional contrasts, their main causes and the rela- tionship between social change and local average wealth standards, as well as the main problems and challenges that will be under discussion in the years to come, in what concerns to health policies.

O TEMA: GUERRA PENINSULAR (1807-1814). TRAÇOS GERAIS DO CONTEXTO HISTÓRICO A Guerra Peninsular, decorrida entre 1807 e 1814, (também conhecida em Portugal como as Invasões Francesas e em Espanha como a Guerra da Independência Espanhola, apesar de, em rigor, integrar ambas) é um período crucial na História de Portugal e um dos temas mais importantes da Historiografia Militar Portuguesa. Os seus impactos foram gerais e numerosos, não só em Portugal como na Europa. Nada nem ninguém ficou alheio às marcas e transformações que provocaram, desde as estruturas políticas, institucionais e militares, até à economia, demografia, sociedade, cultura e mentalidades. A ruptura com o Antigo Regime concretizou-se irreversivelmente e o caminho do Liberalismo foi traçado, cuja maturação desembocou ao cabo de um século na implantação da República. Das três vezes que o Exército Napoleónico invadiu Portugal, foi a Terceira Invasão Francesa que deixou a marca mais profunda na paisagem nacional, em primeiro lugar devido à construção das Linhas de Torres Vedras (1809-1812) para a defesa da capital e, em segundo, pelo emprego da política de “terra queimada” e consequente migração das populações que habitavam, grosso modo, o território desde a região do Mondego até ao sistema de fortificações, para a cidade de Lisboa e concelhos limítrofes, protegidas pelas Linhas de Defesa.

  • Social and Spatial Continuities and Differentiations Among Portuguese Ciganos: Regional Profiles
    STUDIA UBB SOCIOLOGIA, 61 (LXI), 1, 2016, pp. 5-36 DOI: 10.1515/subbs-2016-0001 SOCIAL AND SPATIAL CONTINUITIES AND DIFFERENTIATIONS AMONG PORTUGUESE CIGANOS: REGIONAL PROFILES MARIA MANUELA MENDES,1 OLGA MAGANO2 AND PEDRO CANDEIAS3 Abstract. The coexistence of people and societies marked by ethnic, social, cultural, religious and linguistic diversity is a subject that still generates controversies in contemporary societies. The “Ciganos’ situation” is an unavoidable issue that crosses the boundaries of different European countries, which leads to controversy and ambivalence in the so-called multicultural and/or intercultural societies characterised by the principle of universalism. In Portugal, despite the social and economic transformations that have occurred, the problems of exclusion and poverty among Ciganos persist. They are still considered the poorest ethnic group, with the worst housing conditions, lest schooling and the main target of racism and discrimination. The Portuguese Ciganos are not a homogeneous community. The diversity and plurality are not always easy to grasp by the glare generated by the adoption of interpretive perspectives that are reductively linear and deterministic of the Portuguese Ciganos. For the purpose of outlining a national picture of Portuguese Ciganos, a national study was developed that combines both qualitative and quantitative methodological approaches. The central goal of this article is to present the main results obtained through a questionnaire survey carried out to Ciganos persons and to discuss

    SEEINGLISBON A GUIDE TO GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR STAY magentablackcyanyellow ES959734_OTECG0817_cv1.pgs 08.22.2017 19:44 ADV It‘s Better, It‘s Different – Welcome to the city of discoverers Vasco da Gama began his ingenious discovery tours in the city on the western edge of Europe and greatly enhanced people’s conception of the world. He strongly questioned some approaches to knowledge and paved the way for trade with India. Following his achievements, Lisbon enjoyed a time of great prosperity that came to a sudden end following the disastrous earthquake in 1755. What we experience as an impressive city image today, especially the Baixa, was created in the 18th century. Only the Torre de Belém still reminds us of the time of great sailors and their untiring spirit of discovery. Of course, the time of individual explorations is long past, but the urge for new knowledge has remained unchanged. Today, it is a great number of people who work on the front lines with curiosity, diligence and persistence to bring about progress. They have come to Lisbon as well, to make new discoveries by sharing scientific and practical approaches. Not only in lectures, workshops and discussions but also in dialogues with industry, at the Oertli booth for example. Discover the total range of cataract and posterior segment surgical platforms, the latest functions of the OS4 device, an amazingly simple MIGS method and the new FEELceps line, or simply discover the friendliness and competence of our employees at booth no P263.
