Publication of the book ‘The Prime Ministers of Portugal (1820-2020)’

The importance of the Head of Government as a key political actor in the history of contemporary Portugal and, at the same time, an object of that history, is unquestionable. In an attempt to deal with this subject in a rigorous manner and with the necessary depth, CEPESE, with the high patronage of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, has produced the work ‘The Prime Ministers of Portugal (1820-2020)’.

Presentation of the book ‘The Houses of Brazilians in the Municipality of Paredes’

The houses built by Brazilians have long been part of the imagination and landscape of northern Portugal, and are the subject of countless questions. Who were the men and women who ordered their construction? What features should be emphasised about these houses? Why were they built next to the main avenues? It was against this backdrop that the work ‘As Casas de Brasileiros no Concelho de Paredes’ (The Houses of Brazilians in the Municipality of Paredes), by our researcher Alda Neto, was prepared, with a view to enhancing the value and knowledge of this Portuguese architectural heritage from the 19th and 20th centuries.
