Abstract (lang="eng")
The recent results of research into the War of Restoration (1641-1668), fought on the frontiers of the kingdom of Portugal, do more than merely annul the simplifying and anachronistic effects of the nationalist perspective, and have dimensions that can be linked to more general aspects of European History. This paper seeks to consider some of these aspects, discussing the nature of “nations”, studying the Portuguese case as a possible place for observing the reasons for the end of the hegemony of the House of Austria and, finally, analysing the use of war and fear as instruments in the social construction of the legitimacy for establishing the authority of the State.

Os recentes resultados da investigação sobre a Guerra da Restauração (1641-1668), travada nas fronteiras do reino de Portugal, mais que anulam os efeitos simplistas e anacrónicos da perspectiva nacionalista, tendo dimensões que podem ser relacionadas a aspectos mais gerais da História Européia. Este artigo considera alguns desses aspectos, discutindo a natureza das “nações”, estudando o caso Português como um sítio possível onde observar as razões para o fim da hegemonia da Casa de Áustria e, enfim, analisando o uso da guerra e do medo como instrumentos na construção social da legitimidade necessária para o estabelecimento da autoridade do Estado.
