Um País em Bicos de Pés - Escritores, artistas e movimentos culturais
Este livro traça trajetórias individuais, reconstitui movimentos ou tendências e, ao mesmo tempo, reconstrói os contextos capazes de atribuir sentido às obras dos principais escritores, artistas e intelectuais portugueses. Longe de alinhar numa espécie de biografismo, o resultado que se pretende alcançar é o de um olhar histórico e sociológico dos escritores, dos intelectuais e dos movimentos culturais.
Handbook of Research on the Impacts, Challenges, and Policy Responses to Overtourism
In recent years, the increasing number of tourists traveling to specific urban and resort destinations has caused challenges for the effective management of tourism in these areas, with a resulting negative impact on towns, cities, and host communities. Such issues have included placing undue pressure on infrastructure; destruction of the physical, economic, and socio-cultural environment; and affecting the quality of residents’ daily lives by impacting their mobility and, in some cases, the price and rent of resident accommodation, goods, and services. To achieve a certain level of balance between the interests of local residents and visitors, new regulatory measures and legislation in hi...
Atlantic Crossroads in Lisbon’s New Golden Age, 1668–1750
Long dependent on the Asian spice trade, Portugal suffered serious setbacks during the period of political union with Spain (1580–1640), as the Dutch and others seized key regions and destroyed commercial monopolies. By 1668, the greatest hope for a renewed Portuguese empire lay to the west. This book examines the “Atlanticization” of Lisbon during the early modern era, investigating the social, economic, religious, and political evolution that took place in Portugal’s capital during a period of upheaval and transformation in Europe and in the Atlantic world. In this book, Cacey Bowen Farnsworth shows how, between 1668 and 1750, Lisbon became a crossroads where colonial developments ...
Women's Cinema in Contemporary Portugal
Women's Cinema in Contemporary Portugal brings together scholars from Portugal, UK and the USA, to discuss 14 women film directors in Portugal, focussing on their production in both feature film and documentary genres over the last half-century. It charts the specific cinematic visions that these women have brought to the re-emergence of Portuguese national cinema in the wake of the 1974 Revolution and African decolonisation, and to the growing internationalisation of Portugal's arguably 'minor' or 'small nation' cinema, with significant young women directors such as Leonor Teles achieving prominence abroad. The history of Portuguese women's cinema only begins systematically after the 1974 r...
Performance Art in Portugal
This book explores histories which have only recently been rediscovered by artists and researchers. This study explores the history of Portuguese performance art, in its various "speculative" and "performative" forms. The author approaches this relationship with the re-emergence and centrality of these (semi-)peripheral histories at an international level, whilst identifying some of their unique traits: their cycles of emergence and retraction in Portuguese history; their multiple and complex ontologies; the intertwined relations between the art of performance and the social performance of the Portuguese (regarding topics as sensitive and fracturing as those of the long dictatorship, the col...
40 Anos de Políticas de Educação em Portugal - Volume I - A construção do sistema democrático de ens
Este livro trata os principais temas das políticas de educação dos últimos 40 anos. O olhar sobre a trajetória das medidas de política permite compreender o longo percurso que conduziu à construção do sistema democrático de ensino. Sucessivos governos procuraram responder aos objetivos de melhorar os níveis de qualificação da população portuguesa e de garantir a todos os alunos igualdade de oportunidades, no acesso e no sucesso escolares. A concretização da Reforma do Sistema Educativo, iniciada em 1986, depois da aprovação da Lei de Bases do Sistema Educativo, foi o elemento agregador do consenso e do compromisso entre as forças políticas, sindicais e sociais do país. A comemoração dos 40 anos do 25 de Abril é uma oportunidade, com especial significado, para assinalar a necessidade de construção de um novo compromisso através de um debate aberto, transparente e informado sobre o futuro das políticas de educação, envolvendo os partidos políticos, os parceiros sociais, as autarquias, os pais, as instituições de ensino superior e de ciência, os peritos e as escolas.
