LOFF, Manuel. The Portuguese Revolution (1974-1976), a Specific Model of Democratization in the 20th Century. Revista Crítica de Ciências Sociais [online]. 2024, n.133, pp.13-34.  Epub 31-Mar-2024. ISSN 2182-7435.  https://doi.org/10.4000/11pr1.

The Portuguese revolution, in addition to being viewed as a logical consequence of the last 15 years of the Salazar dictatorship (war, migrations, urbanization, deruralization, feminization of the public sphere), must be read in the context of the new political culture which, since the end of the 1950s (anti-colonial emancipalism, the Cuban revolution, 1968), gave the Left a boost. This, however, has little to do with the start of a third wave of democratization, as defined by Samuel Huntington and negotiated transitions with a liberal-democratic genesis that are very different from the political and social rupture that happened in Portugal. The most studied example of this third wave is the Spanish. In this article, I discuss the comparison that has been more or less systematically drawn between the Portuguese revolution and the Spanish transition, the latter taken as a positive counter-model to the former based on binary arguments such as moderation/radicality, violence/reconciliation, negotiation/rupture.

Palavras-chave : democratization; Portuguese revolution; Spanish transition.
