  • 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.

In the spirit of Aldous Huxley, who suggested that “We can only love what we know”, we would like to introduce you to Braga and to the University of Minho, in the hope that those of you who haven't been here before come to love them as much as we do. Braga was founded by a Celtic tribe known as Bracari over 2000 years ago. The Romans named it Bracara Augusta in honour of Emperor Augustus in the year 15/16 BC and made it the capital of the newly-founded province Gallaecia. After being conquered and re-conquered several times, King Afonso VI of Leon offered it to his daughter Dona Teresa (she was his favourite), who became the mother of the first King of Portugal (D.

  • Oporto: the Building of a Maritime Space in the Early Modern Period
    Oporto: The Building of a Maritime Space in the Early Modern Period Amândio Jorge Morais Barros Instituto de História Moderna da Universidade do Porto [email protected] Abstract During the 16th century, while the Portuguese Crown was concentrating its best efforts on exploring the Cape sea route (“The India Run”), as well as the far-eastern circuits, from Lisbon, commercial shipping agents from other Portuguese seaports sought alternative outlets for their business. It was due to the existence of ports such as Oporto, Viana do Castelo, Vila do Conde, etc., long considered to be minor, that the Portuguese Kingdom was able to make its definitive contribution to the formation of the first Atlantic system. The present essay follows a tendency in modern historiography and pays attention to one particular case: that of the evolution of the city of Oporto, the building and organization of its seaport, its inclusion in an international port system, the mobility of its merchant fleet and the extent of their enterprise. The influence of the Oportan maritime space was felt across the Atlantic world and helped to improve European trade and the economic system of that period. Keywords Atlantic system, Early Modern period, maritime space, navigation, Oporto; seaport, shipbuilding, shipping, trade 1. The present essay consists of a brief summary of a thesis on the subject, which was defended at Oporto University, in the Faculty of Humanities, on October 20, 2004. Traditionally, the study of both Portuguese and Iberian overseas trade, considered mainly from a macro-economic perspective, has been based upon research into sea routes, predominant colonial products, the rise and fall of different types of merchandise and trade circuits.

MOSER 1 Point Cabrillo reflects the Spanish spelling of the nickname of J oao Rodrigues Oabrilho - "the I(id," perhaps a play on words, if the Viscount De Lagoa was correct in assuming that this Portuguese navigator was born in one of the many villages in Portugal called Oabril (Joao Rodrigues Oabrilho, A Biographical Sketch, Lisbon, Agencia Geral do mtramar, 1957, p. 19). 2 Oastroville, Texas, -- there is another town of the same name in California - was named after its founder, Henry Oastro, a Portuguese Jew from France, who came to Providence, R.I., in 1827. From there he went to Texas in 1842, launching a colonization scheme, mainly on land near San Antonio. I came upon the story in the Genealogy Department of the Dallas Public Library, on the eve of reading to the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese a paper on "Cultural Linguistics: The Case of the Portuguese Family Names" (December 28, 1957). The present article is an enlarged version of that paper. 30 38 Gerald M.

  • Social Mobility in Portugal (1860–1960): Operative Issues and Trends
    Continuity and Change 24 (3), 2009, 513–546. f Cambridge University Press 2009 doi:10.1017/S026841600999018X Social mobility in Portugal (1860–1960): operative issues and trends HELDER ADEGAR FONSECA AND PAULO EDUARDO GUIMARA˜ ES* ABSTRACT. This article presents the results of a study of social mobility in Portugal from the 1860s to the 1960s. Four distinct social contexts were examined by refer- ence to selected criteria, and marriage records were used as the source for data collection and analysis. The HISCO coding scheme was followed to allow compari- sons of intergenerational mobility, stratification, and social change. We present the methodological and operative issues inherent in the hermeneutics of the sources used, identifying difficulties in the process of coding arising from the use of a common language to locate individuals in society. We shall offer an opinion on the pace of Portuguese social mobility during the period. 1. INTRODUCTION Social historians must admit to a huge void in our knowledge of occu- pational and social mobility in Portuguese historiography for the long periods from the Liberal Age (1850–1890), with its industrial and material progress, the age of inconstancy and of the Liberal Crisis (1890–1920s), until the time of Dictatorship (1926–1974), which brought authoritarian stability and the beginning of a golden age of modern economic growth (1950–1973).1 After the Civil War (1832–1834), the institutional constraints on capi- talist development that persisted from the ancie´n regime were removed and the country became fully integrated into the world economy led by Britain. Wine and agricultural products, cork, mineral ores, and tinned fish be- came the major export products, while an internal market developed and * Both of the Research Centre in Political Sciences and International Relations, University of E´vora.

Szerkesztésért felelős személy: Chen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Wu Baiyi 1052 Budapest Petőfi Sándor utca 11. +36 1 5858 690 [email protected] china-cee.eu Glimpses at the Possibilities and Challenges in a Post-Pandemic Europe: From a Portuguese Perspective Cristina Zhou University of Coimbra Abstract Moving into a next phase of the coronavirus crisis, with an eased lockdown restriction to allow economies to reopen, the EU is showing steady and positive signs of recovery, having recently injected a significant stimulus to its state-members. Although uncertainties are still lurking, aggravated by a serious second wave of infection in the main urban centers, as well as by an increasing weariness of the general public, after months of strict control. Undoubtedly, the coming Winter will be extremely important for combat against the pandemic. Meanwhile, it is a time to rethink and to readjust. In this paper, firstly, we will observe Portugal’s plan to tackle the social and economic problems caused by this global health crisis, underlining its valuable insights. Secondly, we will present, with first-hand information, the main ideas and inspirations encountered by the Chinese community in Portugal, facing the challenges and hope of a post-pandemic world. In the end, we propose to review the Sino-Portuguese relations during the pandemic, up until now, stressing the obstacles and ambiguities, as well as some potential opportunities.
