  • CADETS in PORTUGUESE MILITARY ACADEMIES a Sociological Portrait
    CADETS IN PORTUGUESE MILITARY ACADEMIES A sociological portrait Helena Carreiras Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL), Centro de Investigação e Estudos de Sociologia (Cies_Iscte), Lisboa, Portugal Fernando Bessa Military University Institute, Centre for Research in Security and Defence (CISD), Lisboa, Portugal Patrícia Ávila Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL), Centro de Investigação e Estudos de Sociologia (Cies_Iscte), Lisboa, Portugal Luís Malheiro Military University Institute, Centre for Research in Security and Defence (CISD), Lisboa, Portugal Abstract The aim of this article is to revisit the question of the social origins of the armed forces officer corps, using data drawn from a survey to all cadets following military training at the three Portuguese service academies in 2016. It puts forward the question of whether the sociological characteristics of the future military elite reveal a pattern of convergence with society or depart from it, in terms of geographical origins, gender and social origins. The article offers a sociological portrait of the cadets and compares it with previous studies, identifying trends of change and continuity. The results show that there is a diversified and convergent recruitment pattern: cadets are coming from a greater variety of regions in the country than in the past; there is a still an asymmetric but improving gender balance; self-recruitment patterns are rather stable, and there is a segmented social origin pointing to the dominance of the more qualified and affluent social classes. In the conclusion questions are raised regarding future civil-military convergence patterns as well as possible growing differences between ranks. Keywords: military cadets, officer corps, social origins, civil-military relations.

ABSTRACT The main focus of this study is to examine the modernization of the Ottoman navy during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz, exploring naval administration, education, and technology. Giving a summary of the transformation of shipbuilding technologies and bureaucratic institutions of the Ottoman naval forces between 1808 and 1861, it analyses the structure of the Ottoman navy, its level of development in comparison to previous periods of time, and the condition of the vessels making up the naval fleet from 1861 to 1876. It also intends to evaluate the character of existing administrative structures at the outset of Abdülaziz’s reign in 1861 and the nature of subsequent changes, including structural reorganization of the Imperial Naval Arsenal, the Ministry of Marine, and the Naval Academy, as well as advancements in military training and seafaring; all within the context of the impact of these changes on the military, political, and economic condition of the Empire during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz.

    http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/2236-463320192109 JOÃO CÂNDIDO, MESTRE SALA1 DOS MARES: THE LABOR AND EVERYDAY LIFE OF BELLE ÉPOQUE SAILORS Álvaro Pereira Nascimento2;3 Abstract In the light of historiographical analyses, this paper discusses the spectacular life of João Cândido Felisberto, a black man born in the post-emancipation period, son of former slaves, and leader of one of the greatest sailor revolts in world his- tory, possibly akin only to the 1905 struggle aboard the Russian battleship Potemkin. We went through multiple sources in or- der to analyze Cândido’s origins, experiences and learnings in barracks and battleships, his national and international trips, and his adventures across different Brazilian borders and ci- ties. Guided by a recent young Republican constitution, the early governors and congresses saw the explosion of social and political movements, feared all over the nation. João Cândido was familiar with most of them, and his name appeared in the front page of the most prominent Brazilian and international newspapers when he led hundreds of black sailors in a protest against the physical punishments and terrible work conditions in the Brazilian Navy. Keywords João Cândido – navy – maritime life – post-emancipation period – biography. 1 Mestre sala: an aristocratic rank, especially in Portugal. The mestre sala was a head of ceremonies, comparable to a master of ceremonies. Nowadays, the term concerns a position in Brazilian samba parades, in which, along with the porta bandeira, the mestre sala is responsible for leading the parade and displaying the samba school’s flag to the audience. 2 Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro.

[email protected] Dynamis Fecha de recepción: 12 de diciembre de 2006 [0211-9536] 2008; 28: 301-328 Fecha de aceptación: 26 de diciembre de 2007 SUMMARY: 1.—Introduction 2.—The emergence of tropical medicine in Europe. 3.—Tropical medicine at the Lisbon School of Tropical Medicine and the Colonial Hospital. 3.1.—Teaching and research 3.2.—The scientific missions: contact with endemic zones. 3.3.—Clinical activity. 4. Some concluding remarks. ABSTRACT: The School of Tropical Medicine was founded in 1902 along with the Colonial Hospital of Lisbon. The Portuguese government recognized the importance of colonising the tropics and therefore supported the creation of a specific locus of medical training that would prove to be crucial to the clinical and experimental study of tropical diseases. This paper examines the importance of such institutions for the emergence of a new scientific area of research while also functioning as a consolidation factor for the Third Portuguese Colonial Empire. The creation of a new concept of medical practice with respect to tropical diseases characterizes a specific aspect of colonization: it underlies and drives the discourse of colonization itself. Consultation of data collected by the Portuguese Tropical School and the Colonial Hospital during the period between 1902 and 1935, the starting point of the present study, seeks to shed light on the ongoing debate concerning the history of tropical medicine within European colonial discourse.

  • A Nuclear Submarine in the South Atlantic: the Framing of Threats and Mônica Herz, Dawood & Lage Deterrence
    Contexto Internacional vol. 39(2) May/Aug 2017 http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-8529.2017390200007 A Nuclear Submarine in the South Atlantic: The Framing of Threats and Mônica Herz, Dawood & Lage Deterrence Mônica Herz* Layla Dawood** Victor Coutinho Lage*** Abstract: In this article, we analyse one aspect of Brazilian nuclear policy during the tenure of the Workers Party (2003–2016): the development of a nuclear-propelled submarine. We propose that the project of building a nuclear-propelled submarine has become possible partly because of the mobilisation of a set of arguments for the construction of the South Atlantic as a strategic area, framed in terms of security and development. On the other hand, we contend that the need for a nuclear-propelled submarine is framed through the mobilisation of a specific notion of deterrence. In other words, we claim that the notions of ‘strategic area’, ‘general deterrence’, ‘conventional deter- rence’, and ‘deterrence by denial’ can help us analyse the fundamental aspects involved in the fram- ing of the South Atlantic as a security concern, justifying the nuclear-propelled submarine project. Keywords: Nuclear Submarine; Threats; Deterrence; South Atlantic; Brazilian Nuclear Policy. Introduction In this article, we analyse one aspect of Brazilian nuclear policy during the tenure of the Workers Party (2003–2016): the development of a nuclear-propelled submarine. There are three main sets of arguments put forward by the Brazilian ruling elites for the nuclear- propelled submarine project: first, the concern with the autonomy of the country’s foreign policy and even the prospects of becoming a major power and joining the UN Security Council; second, the association between development and control of nuclear technology (Herz, Dawood and Lage, forthcoming); and finally, the arguments for the construction and consolidation of the South Atlantic as a strategic area.

  • Reuse of Historic Naval Hospitals
    The Sustainable City VI 457 Reuse of historic naval hospitals C. M. Clark Wessex Institute of Technology, UK Abstract In this paper we assess the futures of historic naval hospitals – once the sailors have left leave – as contributions to the achievement of the sustainable city. Hospitals for nations’ navy sailors were built in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in many countries, their impressive design reflecting pride in national fleets and in the sailors who manned them. Naval physicians and surgeons devised many innovative therapies and cures, contributing greatly to international medical knowledge. They also developed therapeutic architecture. Defence cuts and reductions in the defence estate have left several grand naval hospital complexes empty and looking for new uses. Whether they have viable futures depends on many factors: differing processes of state land disposal, civilian planners’ actions, legislation to protect historic structures, location, financing for adaptive reuse, the state of local economies, and campaigning by national bodies and local communities to ensure that future uses accord with their distinguished pasts. This paper examines naval hospitals’ history, design and the transition to the many and varied civilian uses achieved once redundant. It draws on examples from the United States and Europe. Naval hospitals’ new roles as universities, training establishments and schools, museums, offices and workshops, residences and medical centres contribute to the achievement of the sustainable city, but the fate of some important examples remains uncertain. Keywords: naval hospital, therapeutic architecture, sustainable reuse. 1 Introduction “In all well regulated armies and navies, physicians and surgeons are appointed to take charge of those who are wounded; or who suffer by the insidious attack of disease.” Edward Cutbush 1808 [1].
