A Câmara Corporativa e o Estado Novo em Portugal (1935-1974): competências, interesses e políticas públicas

Este capítulo pretende apresentar e discutir o papel da Câmara Corporativa no processo de definição das políticas públicas do Estado Novo em Portugal, tendo em atenção os interesses que representava e as competências que lhe eram atribuídas.1 Ainda que tenha constituído um órgão lateral na arquitetura do regime, a Câmara elaborou análises críticas que influenciaram a conceção das linhas mestras da governação e as políticas a adotar nas principais áreas de ação do Estado. Os pareceres técnicos e políticos emitidos pela Câmara Corporativa permitiram sustentar opções formuladas nos gabinetes ministeriais, avaliar consequências de certas medidas e propor correções, pontuais ou de fundo. Recorrendo a especialistas e a representantes dos interesses económicos, esta instituição forneceu aos processos de decisão uma componente técnica de elevado grau de especialização.

Aphomoioo : existir entre o processo e a obra

Coming from the need to express an image – aphomoioo – is more than a dissertation trying to prove its argument. It is the result of an experimentation born from within an anguish felt through an image. An uncontrollable desire that transforms my need into an answer to my craft. Through a discursive organization of speech enmeshed by psychoanalytic, biological, philosophical and linguistic concepts, we are allowed to discover that existing is more than agreeing on a target with an end but, as the relationship that it is, it does not define us as beings, but as an active/interactive limit. And this identity which puts us face to face with the reality - constructed and constructive - seeking to describe the similarity of the existence of things, the images. These beings from the reality that sends us to the symbolic place of our existence, the mundanity. A restlessness that is embedded into every action of knowing that, through language, establishes as true everything which silences the symbolic through a rule of conduct - the principle of reason - a formal rule of all knowledge that establishes the contemplative way for all knowledge originally set up as one signification event. The nature of our organization as living beings, our structural coupling, is what enables us to conclude that all formalities established as knowledge are born into a delirium that is expressed in the conformity of an answer. That being the end of an aphomoioo. The purpose of a "doing" that expresses itself into an image that is projected into a representation. A "doing" made after an image through an ergo genesis – the "artwork" – an answer to my making that expresses the image of my separation from myself as an image of ego established in a represented projection of my hallucinatory image
