A forma como viveu os mais importantes momentos da História contemporânea de Portugal e mais ainda, o protagonismo que assumiu em muitos deles, conferem à vida de Norton de Matos (1867-1955) uma riqueza e um colorido ímpar. É esse relato, auto apresentado, que nos deixou com as Memórias e Trabalhos da Minha Vida, obedecendo ao impulso irresistível de submeter ao juízo da História a sua ação como político, patriota e acima de tudo como administrador ultramarino. Todos os factos da sua vida são apresentados como obedecendo, quase de forma predestinada, à concretização da sua ideia de um Portugal democrático, que fundisse não só as glórias do passado com o progresso do futuro, mas também a metrópole e as possessões ultramarinas num todo pluricontinental, ideia a que viria a dar o nome de Nação Una, e pela qual se bateu até ao último sopro de vida. Um sonho? Para muitos um devaneio incompreensível, despropositado e fora de tempo. Mas hoje, numa altura em que colonizadores e colonizados, se apercebem de que a verdadeira democracia tarda em chegar e tentam vencer as barreiras dos preconceitos para reencontrar o caminho comum, é mais do que oportuna a reedição na íntegra dos quatro volumes publicados ainda em vida do autor e o quinto e sexto volumes até agora inéditos das Memórias e Trabalhos da Minha Vida, assim de novo apresentados, pela mão da Universidade em que o autor estudou, ao juízo dos homens e da História.

Exploring international contexts and transnational connections, this 'civilising mission' is analysed and assessed by examining the employment and distribution of African manpower.

This history by celebrated Africanist David Birmingham begins in 1820 with the Portuguese attempt to create a third, African, empire after the virtual loss of Asia and America. In the nineteenth century the most valuable resource extracted from Angola was agricultural labor, first as privately owned slaves and later as conscript workers. The colony was managed by a few marine officers, by several hundred white political convicts, and by a couple of thousand black Angolans who had adopted Portuguese language and culture. The hub was the harbor city of Luanda which grew in the twentieth century to be a dynamic metropolis of several million people. The export of labor was gradually replaced when an agrarian revolution enabled white Portuguese immigrants to drive black Angolan laborers to produce sugar cane, cotton, maize and above all coffee. During the twentieth century Congo copper supplemented this wealth, by gem-quality diamonds, and by offshore oil. Although much of the countryside retained its dollar-a-day peasant economy, new wealth generated conflict which pitted white against black, north against south, coast against highland, American allies against Russian allies. The generation of warfare finally ended in 2002 when national reconstruction could begin on Portuguese colonial foundations.

Long recognized as having played many important roles in the slave export trade of western Africa, foreign alcohol and its various functions within this context have nevertheless escaped systematic analysis. This volume focuses on the topic at Luanda and its Hinterland, where the connections between foreign alcohol and the slave export trade reached their zenith. Here, following the mid-1500s, an extremely close relationship developed between imported intoxicants and slaves exported, by the thousands in any given year, into the Atlantic World: first, fortified Portuguese wine and, following 1650, Brazilian rum emerged as crucial trade goods for the acquisition of slaves. But the significance of Luso-Brazilian intoxicants goes far beyond this singular fact: they also served a number of other functions, some of which were directly tied to slave trading and others indirectly underpinned the business. The volume addresses the problem of alcohol in African history, historicizes “indigenous” alcoholic beverages in West-Central Africa at the time of contact, analyzes the introduction and increasing use of foreign intoxicants for the acquisition of exportable slaves, ponders the profits that such transactions generated within the Atlantic world, reconstructs the other uses of imported alcohol in directly and indirectly underpinning the export slave trade of Luanda, and assesses the impact of foreign alcohol upon West-Central African consumers.

Pretende-se demonstrar que a falência militar do Corpo Expedicionário Português (CEP) em França, durante o ano de 1918, não foi uma consequência exclusiva de ordem castrense, mas, essencialmente, o resultado da falência da política de guerra desenvolvida pelos partidos intervencionistas a qual se prende a duas causas quase concomitantes no tempo: a negação de transportes navais ingleses para colocar reforços em França e o golpe militar de Sidónio Pais, em Dezembro de 1917. O autor desenvolve o texto segundo duas vertentes: uma, orientada para a criação, instrução, instalação e vida do CEP em França e, outra, buscando o levantamento da situação económica, social e política de Portugal durante os anos de 1916 e 1917. Depois, debruça-se sobre a atuação de Sidónio Pais, não só quanto à preparação do golpe de Dezembro de 1917 como, também, quanto à condução da política de guerra face às constantes imposições da Grã-Bretanha. Apresentam-se achegas originais e importantes para a compreensão da História da 1.ª República.

The book is the first comprehensive study of race relations in Angola. It covers the entire five-century-long relationship between the peoples of Angola and Portugal. Portuguese imperial thinkers asserted that they were unique among European colonizers in their ability to establish and maintain egalitarian and non-discriminatory relationships with tropical peoples. This concept was elevated to a philosophical plateau and given the name Lusotropicalism. Propagated with fervor by Portuguese colonial thinkers, Lusotropical doctrines were widely accepted as being valid by twentieth-century diplomats and political thinkers in both Europe and the United States, many of whom believed that Portuguese colonialism in Africa would continue indefinitely. The evidence presented in this work indicates that Portuguese rule in Angola was deeply racist. This conclusion is based on a considerable body of data gleaned from archival sources, personal collections, and systematic interviewing of racially diverse Angolans and Portuguese functionaries in the colonial administration and the private sector. Special emphasis is placed on devices that the Portuguese used to delude themselves and others about the realities of their attitudes and behavior as ruling elites. The study concludes with an assessment of the impact of Lusotropical myths on independent Angola.
