Em Torno de Abril, 25 anos que mudaram Portugal (1961-1986) offers a concise historical overview of Portugal during the 25 years spanning from the start of the African wars in 1961 and its entry into the EEC in 1986, from various perspectives: politics, society, the economy, culture, the media, mentalities, and the country’s position in the world. The complexity of the April Revolution justifies this contextualization, which is essential for understanding the country’s 50 years of democratic existence and its current situation.
