Unwritten Afro-Iberian Memories and Histories
This book sketches out an innovative Afro-Iberian mosaic that puts forgotten memories and histories into circulation, constructing an Afro-Iberian past that is critical of the cultural racialization of Spaniards and Portuguese. It builds an early late modern and contemporary Afro-Iberian history and approaches African and Maghrebi experiences and memories in order to explain the close relation between race, class, ethnicity and gender in Portugal and Spain between 1850 and 2021. The book approaches the African presence in the Iberian Peninsula by identifying and documenting the traces of these population groups in Spain and Portugal. Cultural Studies, Anthropology and Sociology are some of t...
Social Pacts in Europe

Anticolonial Form
Raza examines key literary journals published in French, English, and Portuguese by African writers in Europe in the period of decolonization mainly between 1940 and 1970, to understand how writers understood Empire as a political and cultural structure, and what conceptions of freedom, culture, and society underpinned anti-colonial thinking.
India and EU
"A popular myth maintains that Indo-EU relations are best viewed through the British prism. This disregards the historical evidence of Alexander’s march to India and the Roman Empire’s trade with India. In more recent times cultural icons like Satyajit Ray have been celebrated more in Paris than elsewhere. India’s trade with EU, especially in defence items, is anchored to a greater extent in the continent rather than across the channel. Brexit is now going to take away that British prism. A fresh, and in many ways a profound new Indo-EU relationship is about to emerge. Bhaswati Mukherjee’s book “India and EU: An Insider’s View” is timely. It traces the past, explains the present state of relationship in all its complexity and looks into the crystal ball. This is an objective assessment by a highly regarded professional of the successes as also the wrinkles of the past in the relationship as well as the practical steps for a more vigorous Indo-EU future. Written with great fluency “India and EU-An Insider’s view” fascinates with its vignettes, making it a unique and must-read book."
Mário Soares - Uma Vida
MÁRIO SOARES, um dos pais fundadores do regime democrático português, é visto como a figura mais relevante do pós-25 de Abril de 1974. Com formação em História e Direito, foi primeiro-ministro três vezes e cumpriu dois mandatos como presidente da República, tendo sido o primeiro civil eleito para o cargo por sufrágio direto e universal. Concluiu o processo de negociação para a integração de Portugal na (futura) União Europeia e assinou o respetivo tratado. Apesar das suas políticas nem sempre gerarem consenso, forjou uma estreita relação afetiva com o povo português, que o tratava carinhosamente por O Bochechas. A presente biografia é um retrato de corpo inteiro desta personalidade histórica, desde as suas determinantes ações políticas até às facetas mais agitadas da sua vida privada.
