Violencia política en el Portugal de la I República.

Resumen

he fin-de-siècle crisis of 1890 - known as the Ultimatum crisis - gave rise in Portugal to a long cycle of political violence, as a phenomenon with a social dimension, which lasted until the counter-revolutionary military movement of 28 May 1926 set up a new system: the Ditadura Nacional. During those years, on the one hand, an emerging mass culture fought to achieve a representative opening of the liberal oligarchic system, while, on the other, multiple uprisings of a military nature took place, which contributed to the establishment of an irreversible dialectic of political instability. The sixteen years of republican parliamentarism in Portugal (1910-1926), characterised by successive victories of the Democratic Party at the ballot box, prolonged and even stressed governmental instability and the violence of political life.
