Eutanásia ativa

Euthanasia, especially the active one, has always been an extremely discussed subject, which goes further pure dogmatics and transcends the strictly legal field. A reflection about such issue makes us re-think on what it implies for all the involved without ever loosing sight of the fact that admitting a legalization is, in a legal system as ours, to admit the lack of punishment of an homicide act or an assistance to suicide. However, burying in mind the foreign experiences, isn’t there a possibility of working on a path that respects both the basis of our legal system and the rest of the interests involved? And what interests would those be? How to admit such a path? Based on what assumptions? The present study proposes a discovery of paths and not the search for dead ends, creating definitive answers. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore the existing structure of the Portuguese legal system on these matters, in a path that is until now mostly in favour of punishment, based on homicide or assisted suicide crimes. Along with the Portuguese dynamic, we want to analyse legal systems that opted by decriminalization and, based on those experiences, shared with our legal culture, scan the viability of a decriminalization procedure. What paths would be viable for such a decriminalization in Portuguese criminal territory? The scope is only to open the eyes of who always wanted to keep them shut, or to who just never tried to open them, because at the end of the day it will always be a discussion that we want to keep light up, since that what we are here discussing is life. We want discussion, not imposition.

Arqueologia, património e museus na Câmara Municipal de Almeida

Este relatório apresenta as atividades desenvolvidas ao longo do estágio curricular na Câmara Municipal de Almeida, como componente não letiva de formação no Mestrado de Arqueologia da Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas da Universidade Nova de Lisboa. O estágio teve como principal objetivo a elaboração da carta arqueológica do território das freguesias da Amoreira, Parada e Cabreira, uma parcela do concelho de Almeida. A carta foi elaborada a partir de evidências arqueológicas identificadas em prospeções, de análises da toponímia, da topografia, cartografia, fotografias aéreas e fontes orais do território almeidense. Paralelamente, e no quadro do Museu Histórico-Militar de Almeida, realizou-se um trabalho de organização da reserva arqueológica do município, através da inventariação de todo o espólio arqueológico existente e a elaboração de uma proposta preliminar de conservação preventiva do depósito museal, criando deste modo condições para a receção de novas coleções arqueológicas.
