The Quality of Democracy in Portugal
No. 79 JANUARY 2018
More than 40 years after the Revolution that returned our freedom to us, the country woke up with a controversy that began with the premise «what if we suspended democracy?» It may seem now like a political episode that was unable to withstand the test of time, but the truth is that it can clearly summarise our growing lack of confidence in the quality of democracy in Portugal. What is it that the Portuguese who have lived in a democracy actually expect? What do they think of it? What causes contributed to the low popularity of the regime? How can we deal with the consequences and chart a new course for the democratic regime in Portugal? Find out the answers to these and other questions in the barometer essay on the «Quality of Democracy in Portugal».
