The Belt and Road Initiative
This book is an analysis of the developments associated with the Belt and Road Initiative (B&RI) five years after Xi Jinping announced both the Silk Road Economic Belt (SREB) and the 21st Maritime Silk Road (21MSR). Together, these two dimensions constitute the B&RI, providing the so-called Chinese ‘project of the century’ with regional, inter-regional and global reach. This book aims at assessing the impact of the B&RI in all these dimensions and levels of influence. This is a current and promising theme, not only in the short and medium terms, but also within a broader timescale, reflecting Chinese strategic thinking itself, since Chinese philosophy and culture are oriented towards long-term and inter-generational perspectives. Likewise, both the title of this publication and the way it has been organized result from the empirical perception that China asserts a conservative attitude towards foreign affairs, redesigned in multiple dimensions, to create a perception of domestic unity and global prestige. In this vein of thought, the B&RI is already influencing and will continue to influence, directly or indirectly, the current economic and political order.

Research and Innovation 2019
Research and innovation are two pillars that come together when universities are at stake. The expansion of the frontiers of human knowledge, in all areas and disciplines, is an irrefutable commitment of higher education institutions. Together with public and private entities, they are also committed to promoting knowledge transfer to society and the economy, in the form of new ideas, new products and new processes. Universities are supposed to transform ideas into value for society. To achieve these goals, higher education institutions have to assure their human resources are highly qualified, that they have an adequate atmosphere, that research is of high quality, and finally that adequate...

As intervenções de Manuel G. Martins e os Agentes Exógenos Contra os Portugueses
"Portugal venceu, com bastante facilidade, em zonas marginais das potências europeias (onde conseguiu formar o seu Império); mas perdeu, quase sempre, quando lidou com essas potências (europeias)". "Através da História, os portugueses foram condicionados decisivamente por fatores exógenos. Em muitos casos, as intervenções dos portugueses foram "frutos de influências de agentes externos" "Em muitos períodos da História de Portugal, os interesses exógenos menosprezaram gravemente os interesses endógenos".
Shifting Priorities in Russia's Foreign and Security Policy
Given the resurgence of Russian economic capabilities and of Russia's role as a regional, even global, political actor, much of the literature written more than 4-5 years ago is already dated. The editor and contributors to this timely volume draw upon a broad range of analysts who deal with various aspects of Russian relations with its neighbours to the West and to the East. Implications for Russian foreign and security policy are key to understanding Russia's position in the 21st Century. Readers in Russian foreign and security policy; European, Eurasian, and Asian security; and contemporary international politics/security will find this volume invaluable.

A política externa russa no espaço euro-atlântico: dinâmicas de cooperação e competição num espaço alargado
Com enfoque no espaço Euro-Atlântico, este volume analisa as relações da Rússia com atores diversos, em níveis de análise diferenciados, e com ênfase nas dimensões de atuação relevantes a nível político, económico e de segurança. Destacam-se o espaço pós-soviético, área vital de atuação e influência russa; as relações com a União Europeia (UE); o Ártico, pelos recursos energéticos abundantes e pelas rotas de distribuição; as relações com os Estados Unidos da América; as relações com a Turquia, um ator emergente com estatuto regional importante para a diplomacia de Moscovo; e as relações no quadro do Médio Oriente, região em grande mudança desde a primavera Árabe com implicações para a diplomacia russa. De um modo inclusivo esta análise visa clarificar os alinhamentos de política externa russa mais de duas décadas após o fim da União Soviética, com todas as implicações que lhe estão subjacentes, constituindo um contributo fundamental para a compreensão das relações internacionais russas num contexto em mudança.
