CASTRO LEAL, Ernesto. Nationalism and Anti-Liberalism in Portugal. A Historical-Political View (1820-1940). hist.crit. [online]. 2015, n.56, pp.113-135. ISSN 0121-1617.  https://doi.org/10.7440/histcrit56.2015.05.

This article will attempt to analyze important moments in the thought and action of anti-liberal Portuguese nationalism between 1820 -the Liberal Revolution- and 1940 -the height of the anti-liberal authoritarianism of the "Estado Novo"-. This ideological field incorporated a diversity of thinkers, from different currents of civic opinion and political groups, that are analyzed here from a historical perspective that combines the history of ideas and political history. It is shown how the anti-liberal nationalist political culture in Portugal was characterized by an outstanding predominance of thinkers and of French counter-revolutionary political groups, as well as by conservative Catholic indoctrination.

Keywords : Portugal; history; political identity; nationalism; anti-liberalism.
