Semi-presidentialism, moderating power and inclusive governance. The experience...

Feijó, Rui Graça

The relationship between the choice of a government system, namely semi-presidentialism, and the performance of democracy is the subject of current debate.

Memórias contestadas: monumentos funerários em Lospalos

Feijó, Rui Graça; Viegas, Susana de Matos

Após a independência espalhou-se entre os timorenses um sentimento de urgência em repor a dignidade devida ao enterro e à sepultura de parentes mortos durante a luta da resistência. A expressão de um timorense em conversa com a antropóloga Janet Gunter na região de Viqueque aplica-se, nesse sentido, ao conjunto do país: ‘sem paz não se pode fazer o enterro’. O facto de urgir dar a morada definitiva àqueles que ...
