Propaganda represented the sacrifice of soldiers in war and praised the power of the country. It has been around these images that all over the world entire populations were mobilized on the expectation of victory. Through the static image of printed posters or the newspaper news projected in cinemas all over the globe, governments sought to promote a patriotic spirit, encouraging the effort of individual sacrifice by sending a clear set of messages that directly appealed to the voluntary enlistment in the armies, messages that explained the important of rationing essential goods, of the intensification of food production or the purchase of war bonds, exacerbating feelings, arousing emotions and projecting an image divided between the notion of superiority and the idea of fear of the opponent. From press, in the First World War, to radio in World War II, to television and cinema from the 1950s onwards, propaganda proved to be a weapon as deadly as those managed by soldiers in the battlefield. That’s why it is essential to analyse and discuss the topic of War and Propaganda in the Twentieth Century. This conference is organized by the IHC and the CEIS20 and is part of the Centennial Program of the Great War, organized by the IHC, and the International Centennial Program coordinated by the Imperial War Museum in London.

Os estudos na área da Performance Practice têm conhecido, nos últimos dez anos, uma grande expansão no meio académico. Os trabalhos, neste campo, repartem-se por três grandes temas que reflectem a diversidade de metodologias e perspectivas deste campo de estudos: teoria da interpretação, prática interpretativa e interpretação historicamente informada. O tema desta dissertação recai sobre este último tópico. O projecto incide sobre a interpretação histórica e os pressupostos teóricos que fundamentam as práticas interpretativas da musica coral seiscentista ibérica. Através da recolha e análise de um corpus de registos fonográficos da polifonia dos compositores que se formaram na Escola de Música da Sé de Évora, pretende-se compreender qual o peso da evidência documental nas opções interpretativas. Além da análise das gravações, foi realizado um questionário aos directores corais sobre os critérios na escolha de diversos parâmetros como transposição, tactus, articulação, dimensão do coro, entre outros.

A producer of 5.4 M bbl/d, totalling almost half of the consumption of the entire European Union, the Gulf of Guinea is a fundamental lifeline and maritime link between Europe, the Americas and Africa. Geographically positioned as a staging post for transit originating in Latin America and coupled with its relatively porous borders, the region is also the perfect stepping stone for contraband heading to European shores. While blessed with an enviable wealth of marine and mineral resources, the region is also plagued by an ever-increasing spectre of maritime piracy; accounting for around 30% of incidents in African waters from 2003 to 2011. It is for these reasons that this research centres around the issues of maritime security in the Gulf of Guinea, with a particular focus on the first two decades of the 21st century. This research looks to examine the overall picture of the present state of play in the area, before going on to provide an analysis of potential regional developments in maritime security. This research begins with the analysis of concepts/phenomena that have played a notable role in the shaping of the field of maritime security, namely Globalisation and security issues in the post-Cold War era. The ensuing chapter then focuses in on the Gulf of Guinea and the issues dominating the field of maritime security in the region. The penultimate chapter presents a SWOT analysis, undertaken as part of this research with the aim of correlating opinions from a variety of sectors/professions regarding maritime security in the Gulf of Guinea. The final chapter builds upon the results obtained from the abovementioned SWOT analysis, presenting a series of potential proposals/strategies that can contribute to the field of maritime security in the region over the coming years. This research draws to a close with the presentation of conclusions taken from this particular investigation, as well as a final overview of the earlier presented proposals applicable to the field of maritime security during the second decade of the 21st century.

This study considers the literature on the persistence of business groups in developed economies and analyzes the Portuguese case. The reconstruction of the largest business groups assembles information relevant to define characteristics that enable them to thrive. Increasing internationalization, more specialization in core activities and family control define these types of big businesses. New sectors also emerge as a characteristic of these business groups when compared to the ones existing 40 years ago.

This paper attempts to prove that in the years 1735 to 1755 Venice was the birthplace and cradle of Modern architectural theory, generating a major crisis in classical architecture traditionally based on the Vitruvian assumption that it imitates early wooden structures in stone or in marble. According to its rationalist critics such as the Venetian Observant Franciscan friar and architectural theorist Carlo Lodoli (1690-1761) and his nineteenth-century followers, classical architecture is singularly deceptive and not true to the nature of materials, in other words, dishonest and fallacious. This questioning did not emanate from practising architects, but from Lodoli himself– a philosopher and educator of the Venetian patriciate – who had not been trained as an architect. The roots of this crisis lay in a new approach to architecture stemming from the new rationalist philosophy of the Enlightenment age with its emphasis on reason and universal criticism.

A modinha é um gênero musical que se encontra nas raízes musicais tanto de Portugal quanto do Brasil. Em ambos os países a modinha vem a se caracterizar como música nacional, mas as suas origens nos levam ao meio rural português dos séculos XVI e XVII e à chamada moda portuguesa. Após percorrer uma trajetória de cerca de duzentos anos, a modinha vem a desaparecer no século XX, no Brasil (enquanto em Portugal sua prática já havia sido abandonada em meados do século XIX), mas ainda assim deixando extenso legado. A modinha se adaptou a diferentes sociedades e períodos e assimilou diversos gêneros musicais, sendo de igual forma influenciada por diferentes correntes literárias. O gênero foi retratado por viajantes, religiosos, autoridades e esteve presente tanto nos saraus dos palácios da corte e dos salões das elites, quanto nas serenatas noturnas, entoadas por seresteiros. Procuramos aqui, através de grande variedade de fontes e documentos históricos remontar a trajetória da modinha, desde suas origens até sua dissipação, ressaltando ainda possíveis desvios que possa ter tomado, ao que chamamos de veleidades.
