Description
This nation profile brings the transformation of Portugal from monarchy to democracy into sharp focus, and in doing so, offers interesting insights into the problems of democratic regime formation. Exploring the themes that have shaped the development of modern Portugal, Professor Opello also traces the effects of democratic evolution on the people, the society and the economy of this Western European nation.
