Description
- Abstract:
- The political history of twentieth-century Portugal has recently become the focus of intense research by historians of that country. This article attempts both to summarise the political developments of the period and to provide an English-language readership with an introduction to the on-going debate. This debate is driven to a great extent by the attempt to explain the reasons for the longevity of Salazar's New State and by the attempt to place it within a broader European context. As a result, the regime immediately preceding the New State, the First Republic, has been somewhat neglected by Portuguese historians.
- A história política de Portugal no século XX tem recentemente sido foco de intensa investigação por historiadoes daquele país. Este artigo busca tanto resumir os acontecimentos políticos do período em questão, quanto oferecer aos leitores anglófonos uma introdução ao debate contemporâneo. Esse debate é movido em grande parte por uma tentativa de explicar as razões da longevidade do Estado Novo de Salazar e por uma tentativa de posicioná-lo num contexto europeu mais amplo. Como resultado, o regime imediatamente precedente ao Estado Novo, a Primeira República, tem sido em certa medida negligenciado por historiadores portugueses.
