No meio jornalístico, a Internet veio estabelecer uma nova plataforma de informação, que atingiu os meios de comunicação e proliferou a forma como o cidadão comum pode obter informação. Através da Internet, podemos exercer o nosso direito de liberdade de expressão e informação (artigo 37.º da Constituição da República Portuguesa) em toda a sua plenitude. No entanto, este advento trouxe com ele novos meios para praticar crimes. A pessoa que escreve, publica ou vê algo através da Internet pode cometer um crime contra a honra, punido pelo Código Penal. Destes crimes fazem parte a difamação, o crime mais importante na Comunicação Social, a injúria ou a calúnia: a Internet é uma ferramenta facilitadora de atentar contra a honra da pessoa humana, um direito inerente à nossa simples existência. Na Internet o crime é muitas vezes motivado pela ideia de que o dispositivo informático permite esconder o autor, o que não acontece nos meios de comunicação dito tradicionais. Não obstante, a Internet é um meio de conservação de identidades muito poderoso. A pegada informática nunca é definitivamente apagada e, ainda que tendo a necessidade de ultrapassar alguns constrangimentos jurídicos, existe sempre a possibilidade de identificar os autores dos crimes. Os crimes praticados no mundo online já são, em Portugal, legislados offline. Esta mesma legislação pode ser aplicada a estes “novos” crimes, não sendo necessário uma regulação urgente para que este tipo de crimes seja punido. O que tem que existir é uma permanente observação, na medida em que os crimes contra a honra praticados online atingem um número inqualificável de pessoas e propagam-se a um ritmo avassalador.

Following orders, hierarchical obedience and military discipline are essential values for the survival of the armed forces. Without them, it is not possible to conceive the armed forces as an essential pillar of a democratic state of law and a guarantor of national independence. As issuing orders as well as receiving and following them are inextricably linked to military discipline, and as such injunctions entail the workings of a particular obedience regime within the specific kind of organized power framework which is the Armed Forces, only by analysing the importance of such orders within this microcosm – with its strict hierarchical structure – will it be possible to understand which criminal judicial qualification to ascribe to the individual at the rear by reference to the role of the front line individual (i.e. the one who issues an order vs the one who executes it). That is, of course, when we are faced with the practice of unlawful acts, keeping in mind the organizational framework and its influence over the will of the executor. One thing we take as read, if the orders can be described as unlawful, the boundary line of the duty of obedience, which cannot be overstepped, both because of a legal as well as a constitutional imperative, will have been crossed. And the military have sworn an oath of obedience to the fundamental law. The topic of hierarchical obedience cannot be separated from the analysis of current legislation which pertains to the topic within military institutions. With that in mind, it appeared relevant to address the major norms which regulate the matter within the Portuguese military legal system, and, whenever necessary and required by the reality under analysis, to relate that to civilian law or legal doctrine.

RESUMO: A população prisional é constituída por indivíduos geralmente sujeitos a alguma forma de exclusão social e que apresentam problemas de saúde física e mental mais frequentes do que na população em geral. A prevalência mais elevada de perturbações mentais e de suicídio nos reclusos, em relação à população civil, é consensual e está demonstrada em numerosos estudos internacionais. O abuso/dependência de substâncias, a depressão, as psicoses e a perturbação anti-social de personalidade são as perturbações mais comuns na população prisional. As perturbações mentais são importantes factores de risco de suicídio, de vitimização, de reincidência e de reentrada no sistema prisional. Assim sendo, o grupo de reclusos com perturbação mental constitui um grupo de risco relevante. A avaliação de necessidades de cuidados foi iniciada no Reino Unido como um método para o planeamento, medição dos resultados e financiamento dos cuidados de saúde. Para esta avaliação foram desenvolvidos instrumentos que avaliam as necessidades em diversos domínios (clínicos e sociais) para aplicação aos utentes, cuidadores e profissionais. Até aos anos noventa, a avaliação de necessidades no contexto prisional incidia especialmente nas necessidades de segurança dos serviços, segundo a perspectiva dos profissionais. Contudo, a partir do relatório Reed (1992), sobre a situação dos reclusos com perturbação mental, verificou-se uma abordagem mais abrangente, que incluía a avaliação das necessidades de cuidados dos reclusos. Embora as necessidades dos reclusos com perturbação mental pareçam ser similares às dos doentes psiquiátricos em geral, existem diferenças em determinados domínios como a comorbilidade do eixo II, o abuso de substâncias e o risco de violência. Por este motivo, as necessidades de cuidados de saúde mental dos reclusos são elevadas e frequentemente não se encontram satisfeitas. De forma a incluir estas especificidades foi desenvolvida a versão forense do Camberwell Assessment of Need (CAN), designada por CAN - Forensic Version (CANFOR). Actualmente existe um consenso generalizado entre as instituições internacionais do dever de proporcionar aos reclusos cuidados de saúde, de prevenção e de tratamento, equivalentes aos cuidados disponíveis para a população civil - o princípio da equivalência de cuidados. A presente investigação pretendeu caracterizar e avaliar as necessidades de cuidados dos reclusos acompanhados nos serviços de psiquiatria prisionais na área da Grande Lisboa (internamento no Serviço de Psiquiatria do Hospital Prisional de S. João de Deus (HPSJD) e consultas nos Estabelecimentos Prisionais (EP) de Caxias e de Tires). De modo a estabelecer uma comparação com sujeitos civis foi seleccionada uma amostra de conveniência de pacientes acompanhados num departamento de psiquiatria da mesma região, segundo um emparelhamento por sexo, escalão etário, e por diagnóstico, num período de 3 meses. Realizou-se um estudo de tipo observacional, transversal e comparativo. Aplicaram-se os seguintes instrumentos de avaliação: questionário específico, Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale 4.0, Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview 5.0.0, Global Assessment Functioning, CAN-R e CANFOR-R. No período do estudo (12 meses) foram assistidos 149 reclusos, dos quais, 35 (23,5%) não cumpriram os critérios de inclusão. A amostra final de reclusos (PRs) (n=114) foi constituída por 79 homens (69,3%) e 35 mulheres (30,7%), dos quais 77 eram condenados (67,5%) e 37 (32,5%) encontravam-se detidos preventivamente. A amostra final de participantes civis (PCs) foi constituída por 121 indivíduos, dos quais 76 eram homens (62,8%) e 45 eram mulheres (37,2%).A amostra final de participantes civis (PCs) foi constituída por 121 indivíduos, dos quais 76 eram homens (62,8%) e 45 eram mulheres (37,2%). Relativamente aos PRs, o diagnóstico mais frequente foi a Perturbação Anti-social da Personalidade (57,9%), seguida pela Depressão Major (56,1%). A maioria (53,5%) apresentava três ou mais categorias diagnósticas. Aproximadamente um terço dos PRs (30%) pontuou o nível elevado de risco de suicídio. A probabilidade deste risco aumentava, significativamente, nos portadores de Depressão Major, de um maior nível de psicopatologia e de uma condenação actual. Perto de metade dos PRs (47,4%) possuía duas ou mais condenações prévias e mais de metade estavam envolvidos em crimes contra pessoas (53,5%). A probabilidade de condenações múltiplas foi significativamente superior nos portadores de Perturbação Antisocial da Personalidade e nos reclusos com maior número de necessidades totais. Entre os PRs dos dois sexos, as principais diferenças significativas residiram na maior frequência de consumo de substâncias e no maior número de necessidades de cuidados nãosatisfeitas nos homens versus mulheres. A comparação entre os PRs, antes da detenção, e os PCs mostrou que os primeiros possuíam menor escolaridade, menos medicação psiquiátrica, mas mais emprego e mais consumos de substâncias ilícitas. A Perturbação Anti-social da Personalidade (OR=26,4; IC95%: 10,7-64,9), a Perturbação Pós-stress Traumático (OR=15,0; IC95%: 3,5-65,4), a Dependência/Abuso de Substâncias (OR=8,5; IC95%: 4,2-17,6) a Depressão Major (OR=2,6; IC95%: 1,5-4,4) e o Risco de Suicídio Elevado (OR=2,6; IC95%: 1,4-5,0) foram significativamente mais frequentes nos PRs versus PCs. Relativamente à avaliação de necessidades de cuidados, os PRs mostraram maior número de necessidades não-satisfeitas e maior necessidade de ajuda profissional, em relação aos PCs. Embora diversas necessidades não-satisfeitas possam resultar da condição de recluso, outras, em domínios da saúde física, da segurança do próprio e dos consumos tóxicos, poderão indicar que os PRs recebem um nível de cuidados inferior ao necessário, em comparação com os PCs. Os PRs apresentaram patologia mental, predominantemente não-psicótica e elevado risco de suicídio/auto-agressão, associado a depressão, necessidades de cuidados e uma pena de prisão. Possuíam, numa frequência elevada, características, consistentemente, associadas à reincidência criminal (personalidade anti-social, consumos tóxicos, condenações anteriores), pelo que se justifica um especial acompanhamento deste grupo, no período pré e pós-libertação. A comparação de necessidades de cuidados no contexto civil e prisional indica um maior nível de necessidades e um menor nível de cuidados recebidos pelos PRs, em relação aos PCs. O princípio da equivalência de cuidados poderá estar comprometido nos indivíduos reclusos com perturbação mental. A utilização do CANFOR foi fácil e poderá contribuir para um melhor planeamento, oferta e avaliação de resultados ao nível individual. Os PRs e PCs revelaram características clínicas e de necessidades muito diferentes entre si, pelo que, os reclusos com perturbação mental deverão ser assistidos em serviços de saúde mental preparados para abordar as suas especificidades.---------------ABSTRACT: The prison population is generally made up of individuals who are usually subject to some sort of social exclusion and who show physical and mental problems more frequently than the general population. Various international studies have found higher rates of mental disturbances and suicide within the prison population. The most common mental disturbances found are substance abuse or dependency, depression, psychosis, and anti-social personality disturbance. Such mental disturbances are important factors in suicide, victimization, delinquency recurrence, and the risk of reentry into prison. As a result, prison inmates with mental disturbances are a relevant at risk group. Assessment of needs of care first started in the United Kingdom as a method of care planning, results measuring and finance health care. The method involved the development of certain measuring instruments to be used by patients, caregivers and professionals in order to evaluate needs in various domains (clinical and social). Until the nineties, the assessment of needs of care in a prison context focused mainly on the service’s security needs. However, after the Reed (1992) report on mentally disturbed inmates, a much wider approach was considered, which included evaluation of the inmate’s needs of care. However similar mentally disturbed prison inmates’ needs may appear to those of other psychiatric patients, there are some differences in particular domains, namely, co-morbidity of Axis II, substance abuse and the risk of violence. For this reason, inmates’ mental health care needs are high and very often not met. In order to include these specificities, a forensic version of the Camberwell assessment of need (CAN,) designated CAN – Forensic version (CANFOR) was developed. There is now generalized consensus among international institutions of the duty under the equivalent health care principle to provide inmates with preventative health care and treatment, that are equivalent to the care available to the civil population. This investigation aims to characterize and assess the health care provision of prison inmates admitted to Lisbon’s Psychiatric Prison ward - the Psychiatric Ward of São João de Deus Hospital (HPSJD) - and inmates in the Caxias and Tires Prison Establishments (EP) undertaking outpatient treatment. In order to establish a comparison between prison and civilian patients, a convenience sample was selected from civilian patients being treated in a psychiatric ward in the same geographical area. This sample was paired by gender, age group and diagnosis during a three month period. The study was observational, transversal and comparative. The following measuring instruments were used: a purpose-built questionnaire, Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale 4.0, Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview 5.0.0, Global Assessment Functioning Scale, CAN-R and CANFOR-R. During the research period (12 months), 149 inmates received care, of whom 35 (23.5%) did not comply with the prerequisite criteria of this study. The final sample of inmates (PRs) (n=114) comprised 79 men (69.3%) and 35 (30.7%) women, of whom 77 (67.5%) were convicted prisoners and 37 (32.5%) were in preventive custody. The final sample for Civilian Participants (PCs) was made up of 121 individuals, of whom 76 (62.8%) were men and 45 (37.2%) were women. The most common diagnosis among the PRs was Anti-Social Personality Disorder (57.9%), followed by Major Depression (56.1%). More than half of the subjects in the sample (53.5%) showed three or more diagnostic categories. Approximately one third (30%) of the PRs showed a high level of suicide risk. The probability of this risk was significantly higher among Major Depression patients, those showing a higher level of psychopathology and those with a current conviction. Almost half of the PRs (47.4%) had been given two or more prior convictions and more than half (53.5%) were involved in crimes against people. The probability of multiple convictions was significantly higher among inmates with Anti-Social Personality Disorder and in those with more total needs. With regard to gender, the main significant difference among the PRs was that men were found to have a higher frequency of substance use and a greater number of unsatisfied caring needs than women. Comparison between the PRs prior to detention and PCs revealed that the former held lower educational qualifications and received less psychiatric medication, but had higher levels of employment and showed greater consumption of illicit substances. In addition Anti-Social Personality Disorder (OR=26.4; IC 95%: 10.7-64.9), Post-Stress Traumatic Disturbance (OR=15.0; IC 95%: 3.5-65.4), Substance Dependency/Abuse (OR=8.5; IC 95%: 4.2-17.6), Major Depression (OR=2.6; IC 95%: 1.5-4.4), and High Suicide Risk (OR=2.6; IC 95%: 1.4-5.0) were significantly more frequent amongst PRs than PCs. The results for needs assessment revealed that the PRs showed higher levels of unmet needs and a greater need for professional help in comparison with the PCs. Although various unmet needs may result from the inmate’s condition, other needs - in particular those regarding physical health, personal security and toxic substance use - suggest that the care given to PRs may be inadequate in comparison with that given to PCs. This implies that the principle of equivalent health care for PRs with mental illnesses may not be upheld. Furthermore, the mental morbidity results of the PRs indicated that they suffer predominantly from non-psychotic and high suicide/self inflicted aggression risk associated with depression, caring needs and a prison sentence. They also often showed characteristics that are consistently associated with criminal recidivism (Anti-social Personality, use of toxic substances, prior convictions). This result justifies that there should be special follow-up for this group in the pre- and after release period. The use of CANFOR proved to be simple and the application delay was acceptable. No difficulties were encountered in the understanding of its categories by its users. As a result, itcould contribute towards better planning, supply and assessment of results at an individual level. Given that the PRs and PCs revealed different clinical and needs characteristics, it is recommended that inmates with mental disturbances should be assisted in mental health services that are adequately prepared to address their specificities.

The main objective of this survey was to perform descriptive analysis of crime evolution in Portugal between 1995 and 2013. The main focus of this survey was to analyse spatial crime evolution patterns in Portuguese NUTS III regions. Most important crime types have been included into analysis. The main idea was to uncover relation between local patterns and global crime evolution; to define regions which have contributed to global crime evolution of some specific crime types and to define how they have contributed. There were many statistical reports and scientific papers which have analysed some particular crime types, but one global spatial-temporal analysis has not been found. Principal Component Analysis and multidimensional descriptive data analysis technique STATIS have been the base of the analysis. The results of this survey has shown that strong spatial and temporal crime patterns exist. It was possible to describe global crime evolution patterns and to define crime evolution patterns in NUTS III regions. It was possible to define three to four groups of crimes where each group shows similar spatial crime dynamics.

The management of terrorism presents an added importance because of the ignorance and uncertainty that this threat to peace launches in societies. From the globalization process has resulted a capacity of mobility and communication which allowed the spread of terrorism globally and hence the ability to be in the international agenda. Thus it became necessary a synergy between the main international organizations and states, in the common interest of managing terrorism to acceptable levels. This thesis aims to assess how much space is reserved for intelligence on combating terrorism. To this end, it carried out a literature review related to intelligence, security and terrorism, such as legislation and official documents, national and international. These allowed realize the strategies for combating terrorism of major international organizations and the Portuguese, the institutions that are in charge of fighting terrorism and related crimes, highlighting the intelligence institutions within the European Union and Portugal. Intelligence should enter on this panel by the need to meet the threat and its contours. On the one hand lies to understand the framework which establishes terrorism, tracing relevant scenarios to reduce uncertainty in decision-making and, on the other hand, also be responsible for disseminating information to other stakeholders on security, allowing its commands to use the means efficiently.

The present work aims to develop the theme "The summary procedure and the reform of 2013". The purpose of its analysis serves the interest to understand the virtues and disadvantages of the changes introduced by Act n.º 20/2013 to our Code of Criminal Procedure, and the main focus of the present reflection is to further the impact of the measures taken by the legislator to the summary proceedings. The opening of the most serious crimes to summary procedure is a reform measure duly highlighted because it is a true innovation in the Portuguese penal system. Therefore, it urges to analyse not only the consequences of this measure, as well as if the objectives of its introduction in the summary procedure system are met. It should be noted that the legislator intends to promote speedy trial, and at the same time, ensure compliance with the Constitutional rights associated to the accused. At this point it is important to realize if there is a restriction of the accused essential guarantees. On the other hand, it should be noted that the typical characteristics of summary proceedings might have been invariably modified, due to the innovative aspect of the reform. That said, the changes might have fostered a mischaracterization of the typical format of the summary procedure, both in terms of the nature of the proceedings and in terms of its space and objectives within the penal system. Reflecting on the above will provide a deeper understanding of the volatile balance between the Portuguese governing prosecution efficiency and the Constitution, as well as the future of the criminal policy in Portugal.
