Vila do Porto
Initially supported by the popular masses, the Portuguese First Republic was marked by social, political and economic instability, and a weak participation in World War I. The period from 1910 to 1926 was characterized by a partisan struggle for power, political and social agitation. Improvements since 1923 were not enough to counteract the growing discontent stimulated by intellectuals; a persecuted Church; an army and civil service without resources and an economically oppressed industry. The coup of May 28, 1926, put an end to this democratic regime starting a new cycle that, despite maintaining the previous political instability, prepared the Estado Novo, under the control of Antonio de Oliveira Salazar, interrupted in April 25, 1974.

State-building, social movements and political economy
Modernity was marked by the edification of increasingly complex and sophisticated state system, committed to governing territories and populations, through a multiplicity of administrative, fiscal, police and judicial networks. At the same time, new mechanisms for legitimizing political power emerged, based on the building of a public sphere and the dissemination of different forms of collective organization and mobilization: from associations to petitions, from political demonstrations to strikes and riots. Finally, a new regime of production and consumption was created in the form of a Political Economy directed to the creation of markets, the movement of goods and the accumulation of capital.

Victor Segalen, exoticism in question
Yesterday and today, distance and proximity, similitude and otherness
À la faveur des commémorations du centenaire de la mort du romancier et poète français Victor Segalen, et alors que l’émergence, tant théorique que critique, d’une « fiction-monde » s’impose dans les études littéraires - laquelle met le comparatisme à l’épreuve et complexifie les prémisses des études postcoloniales -, et que la perspective classique dégagée par Edward W. Saïd sur le constructum de l’Orient par l’Occident ne rend plus compte, à elle seule, de l’étendue des questions soulevées par la globalisation des faits, des enjeux et des fictions, il nous semble pertinent de nous pencher, avec un recul théorique et dans un empan qui inclut les XIX, XX et XXIèmes siècles en langue française, sur la notion changeante et transversale d’« exotisme ».

This conference will address modes of conviviality that cultures may have resisted, promoted or facilitated down the ages and especially in the present. It will reflect upon the role and effects of cultural literacy in different media, in the shaping of today’s politics and global economy.

Amílcar Cabral: The “Anonymous Fighter” for the Mankind Fundamental Freedoms
In 1971, Amílcar Cabral presented himself in the United Nations (UN) as an “anonymous fighter” engaged in the struggle for the fundamental freedoms of the populations of Guinea and Cape Verde, as well as of all mankind. Such affirmation was not casual, since Cabral adopted the status of “anonymous fighter” in other circumstances, arguing that he was struggling for the human dignity, progress and happiness. The main goal of the conference is to bring together academics studying Cabral trajectory, institutions involved in preserving his memory and personalities which became acquainted with him.
