El fondo antiguo: su estructura conceptual

El presente trabajo analiza los diversos términos utilizados para designar a un conjunto de objetos bibliográficos y documentales que se resguardan en las bibliotecas de manera especial. El análisis y la reflexión pretenden conducir hacia la propuesta del concepto de Fondo Antiguo como el más idóneo para designar un conjunto de objetos valiosos porque representan una herencia cultural compartida por todas las sociedades. Se pone el énfasis en el proceso de valoración patrimonial y especialmente cómo fundamentan los valores históricos, estéticos y de conocimiento la importancia de transmitir los testimonios del pasado. Finalmente se analiza la vinculación entre el concepto Fondo Antiguo, que proponemos, y la perspectiva de los bienes culturales como la categoría superior de reconocimiento y valoración que realizan los Estados sobre los elementos que constituyen su patrimonio cultural. Este trabajo pretende aportar elementos de reflexión que conduzcan a delimitar el espacio y la función de los conceptos dentro de las argumentaciones teóricas para evitar confusiones en su uso e interpretación.

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.

Photographs of secretarial staff at Lightning Fastener, ca. 1935

Lightning Fastener Co. Ltd. was a zipper manufacturer located on Niagara Street in St. Catharines. It was founded by Gideon Sundback, the inventor of the modern fastener. Sundback was born in Sweden, but settled in the United States in 1905. It was here that he designed and patented a “separable fastener” in 1913. Although he lived in Hoboken, New Jersey, he decided to establish a manufacturing facility for his invention in Canada, choosing St. Catharines over other locations such as Fort Erie and Hamilton. At the height of its success, the company employed more than 500 people and produced more than 50 million zippers annually. Over time, the company had difficulty remaining competitive and was forced to close in 1981.
