The Internationalisation of the ‘Native Labour' Question in Portuguese Late Colonialism, 1945–1962
This volume addresses the ways the ‘native labour’ question in the Portuguese late colonial empire in Africa became a recurrent topic of international and transnational debate and regulation after the Second World War.

Sector Insights: Real Estate in Portugal
What is the state of real estate in Portugal? A decade ago, the country put in place attractive fiscal advantages like the Golden Visa and non-habitual residency agreements to attract foreign cash. This enhanced an in-vestment proposal that was already tricky to match within Europe—A warm-climate European capital with an oceanfront offers an unbeatable lifestyle package.

The program has met with fierce criticism, however, as has the canceling of the Golden Visa program. It is against this backdrop that research for this 50-page Sector Insights report began. It features a range of interviews, news, articles, and analysis from across the real estate and construction sector.
