While Europe is growing old and has been recognizing the limits of its social model in the global world, new actors have appeared in the international scene. Portugal is in a region that globally has lost importance and that also felt specific constraints resulting both from its characteristics, and from its vulnerability to the changes in the relative prices a consequence of the pressures motivated by the increased search of raw materials and fuel.

Keywords : Portugal; economic crisis; investment; external trade.
