Abstract:
This article presents the results of the first survey-based study in Portugal about the level of involvement of social workers in social policies, aiming to determine if policy practice is embedded in Portuguese social workers’ professional practice and which factors may enhance or constraint such practice. Combining the Civic Voluntarism Model by Verba and colleagues and the Policy Practice Engagement Model by Gal and Weiss-Gal, which were considered as the main predictors of social workers’ engagement in policy practice, this study followed a quantitative approach, based on 265 valid answers to an online survey obtained through snowball sampling. The findings showed a low level of engagement in policy practice activities among the social workers, especially those requiring a greater public exposure and acting with the media, policymakers, or public officers to share opinions, make a proposition, or report a problem. Considering the main factors of the socio-political context, the professional context, the organisational context, and individual factors, the findings showed that individual factors explained most of the differences in the social workers’ involvement in policy practice, especially when considering interest and efficacy. This study pointed out the need for further research in this area.

Abstract:
Portugal has been described as a singular case in terms of the participation of women in the labour market and work–life balance policies. Unlike the other so-called Southern European countries, where a belated and somewhat slower move away from the male breadwinner model has been found, Portugal stands out from the other EU member states with its relatively high rate of female employment and the prevalence of the dual-earner model based on continuous and fundamentally full-time employment. Moreover, the “early return to full-time work and a gender equality oriented model” calls for a separate analysis of this country’s case. In addition to providing a comprehensive overview of the singularities of Portugal’s employment patterns and work–family articulation policies, this article substantially adds to the existing literature by bringing new analytical angles to the debate. The intention is therefore to shed light on the political discourses that fuelled the policy debate throughout the three decades following Portugal’s transition to democracy, up until the latest and most decisive policy changes. This article also examines the key social actors’ views about the political process sustaining the development of policies in this area and identifies the major players promoting the most progressive legislative advances in the country.

Abstract:
Innovation public policy has an essential role in influencing the competitive capacity of companies and is strongly associated with their ability to innovate and the way they are organized. As important as the technological organization of work is the social dimension, namely, involvement, participation, and commitment of the workforce, as these are, par excellence, factors that contribute to creating added value and differentiation for companies. In this sense, the concept of innovation depends on an integrated vision between the human dimension and the other multiple dimensions that innovation can assume. Public policies, besides the goal of creating a more modern and competitive business and industrial context, also are focused on the development of the workforce, not only in digital competences but also in soft skills. This type of skill contributes to creating a more innovative context and a culture of innovation. This article's goal is to make a global overview of innovation and the public policies to promote the modernization of companies and influence the way they contribute to economic growth.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the impact of the hegemonic paradigm of global mental health (GMH) on Portugal. We specifically argue that GMH in Portugal has effected a change of priorities in health policies, favoring the prevention and treatment of common mental disorders to the detriment of the deinstitutionalizing process. Diffused through the media, this model has negative effects, such as the medicalization of social suffering, the reorganization of mental health policy areas according to utilitarian criteria, and the risk of greater invisibility of users with serious psychiatric diagnoses. However, the GMH approach, bringing to the frontline the impact of all social policies on mental health, represents a new opportunity to politically address social suffering. Characterized as a semi-peripheral country, Portugal may be representative of observable trends in similar countries.

This article explores law and social policy regarding trans* activism amongst trans* and non-binary social movements, and academic research addressing trans* in the UK and Portugal. In considering different possibilities for theorising gender diversity, this article positions a politics of difference and embodied citizenship as fruitful for synergising the issues under discussion. The authors consider recent law and policy shifts around gender recognition in each country and examine the gaps and the connections between policy developments, activism and research around trans*. Though each country has divergence in terms of the history of trans* activism and research, the article identifies significant similarities in the claims of activist groups in the UK and Portugal and the issues and questions under consideration in academic research on trans* and non-binary.

Abstract:
This paper explores the implementation of European Union (EU) Cohesion Policy in Portugal during the 2014–2020 programming period (Portugal 2020) and its contribution to promoting sustainable territorial development. It starts with an anatomization of the dominant analytic dimensions of the concept of sustainable territorial development. It then examines the approved projects under Portugal 2020 and relates them to the selected five dimensions of territorial sustainable development, which include a circular economy, social environmental awareness, environmental conservation, a global governance sustainability focus, and a global spatial planning sustainability focus. The conclusions are that the Portugal 2020 goals of supporting sustainable territorial development have been, until late 2019, achieved beyond initial expectations in terms of relative allocated funding, and that the renewable energy and circular economy components have not been sufficiently explored, vis-à-vis the sustainable development needs of the country.

Abstract:
Doutoramento em Economia
O terceiro sector tornou-se nas últimas duas décadas tema central no âmbito da economia e da política social. Enquanto espaço de investigação, a sua problemática atingiu particular interesse, tendo em conta os impasses e os novos paradigmas que o Estado providência conheceu a partir dos anos 70. O presente estudo vem ao encontro desta preocupação, na procura de uma análise consistente sobre o terceiro sector como suporte da política social portuguesa. Procurou-se assim dar visibilidade às suas iniciativas, ao longo do século e à sua capacidade para constantemente reagir à marginalização de grupos sociais e quando os esforços de integração sócio política do sector público falham. Neste contexto, abordam-se as perspectivas de evolução do terceiro sector, sobretudo ao pôr em questão orientações económicas e de política social dominantes, no sentido de que as áreas não lucrativas são irrelevantes para o funcionamento da economia - o grande desafio da economia social. Um balanço sobre as novas perspectivas abertas pelo desenvolvimento da economia social na Europa assenta a análise num panorama mais vasto. Pretendendo-se ir além do diagnóstico que a recolha de dados permitiu, recorremos a estudos experimentais para a definição de índices que tornem visível a evolução e o estudo da sociedade civil em Portugal na viragem do milénio. A fim de complementar o estudo, avançámos com a avaliação de duas experiências concretas, que emergiram nos anos 70, com estratégias no domínio da política social, visando a melhoria do bem estar. Constituindo-se como passo importante para uma economia local, sustentada - centrada nas pessoas e nas suas necessidades - foram também alternativa às propostas formais da política social. Reforçaram a ideia por nós avançada de que a responsabilidade multiforme e o "ser pró-activo" que caracteriza as OSC é uma mais valia para os novos rumos que despontam no domínio da política social.
Suddenly everybody is talking about civil society. In the academic debate the term reappears by the end of 1980's, at about the same time as unemployment, poverty and social exclusion emerge at a broader scale. It suggests that this is not a mere coincidence, but there is a relationship between them. Everywhere in Europe a number of specific groups search and experiment new paths to development, through new third sector initiatives, which differ from both the traditional market -oriented once as well as from those managed by public administration. The recognition of these phenomena cannot be considered as new. In Portugal, over the last 100 years a whole series of civil movements have developed. Even, near to us, the seventies have been a time of accelerated changes on social policy and on civil society initiatives. Thus, in the present research, perspectives of evolution of the third sector are approached, as well as the socio-economy challenges: a key point to the development of social policy strategies. In our study we have calculated indexes and indicators, based on experimental studies. Our aim is to make visible the scope and impact of the civil society. In particular, the study of two organisations emerged in the seventies that strengthened the third sector, through the promotion of pilot projects addressed to the solution of social problems enriches significantly the ongoing debate. They make visible the major role played by third sector economic initiatives. As a conclusion, we can say that third sector strengthens the concept of social economy as a form of attaining the connection between social and economic objectives. Therefore, organisations of the third sector are the key element to express different understandings of social policy towards not only its active participation but also its multiform responsibility.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Política Social
Esta dissertação apresenta o estudo da primeira política social desenvolvida em Portugal exclusivamente para as pessoas em situação de sem-abrigo, política essa elaborada sob a forma de uma Estratégia Nacional para tal população (ENIPSSA) e que resultou da ação do Open Method of Coordination (OMC). O OMC promoveu a cooperação entre os Estados Membros da União Europeia no desenvolvimento de uma agenda política para as PSSA. Este trabalho apresenta os resultados de uma investigação desenvolvida através de métodos quantitativos e qualitativos. Em primeiro lugar, revela a caracterização do universo de 2456 Pessoas em Situação de Sem-abrigo (N=2456) que recorreram à Unidade de Atendimento à Pessoa Sem-Abrigo (UAPSA) do Núcleo de Planeamento e Intervenção com os Sem-Abrigo (NPISA), de Lisboa, no ano de 2018, do ponto de vista sociodemográfico, habitacional, económico e do diagnóstico social. Posteriormente, apresenta um estudo qualitativo que consistiu na realização de entrevistas semi-diretivas individuais e focous groups (n=31) realizadas a pessoas com percurso de sem-abrigo (n=10), técnicos superiores (n=16) e coordenadores (n=5), com a finalidade de analisar os seus testemunhos face aos objetivos e implicações que a ENIPSSA trouxe para a Integração das PSSA. Os resultados apurados, mediante a interação dos dados quantitativos e qualitativos, sugerem que as medidas e programas que têm funcionado positivamente, discutem criticamente a relevância da Estratégia Nacional e revelam que as políticas de habitação assumem preponderância para a prevenção e erradicação das PSSA quando acompanhadas de programas de intervenção integrada.
This essay presents the study of the first social policy developed in Portugal exclusively for a homeless population. This policy was elaborated as a National Strategy focused on the Social Integration of Homeless persons (ENIPSSA). This Strategy was developed under the Open Method of Coordination (OMC). The OMC promoted the cooperation amongst EU Member States in the development of a political agenda for homelessness. The research was developed following quantitative and qualitative methods. Firstly it presents the characterization of a universe of 2456 persons (N=2456) in homeless situations, who were followed by the Public Attendance Unit (UAPSA) in 2018. This Unit integrates the Lisbon Intervention and Planning Nucleus for homeless persons (NPISA). The mentioned task is based on socio-demographic, housing, economic and social diagnosis aspects. Secondly, it presents a qualitative study, which consists of individual semi-structured interviews and focus groups (n=31) done with persons in homeless situations (n=10), senior technical staff (n=16) and coordinators (n=5). This study intends to analyse their oral testimonies regarding the objectives and implications that NPISA brought to the integration of persons in a homeless situation. Analysing the quantitative and qualitative data, the results show that the measures and programs created a positive impact, critically argue the importance of the National Strategy and conclude that housing policies, when linked to integrated intervention programs, are relevant to prevent and eradicate homelessness.

Managing forest fires is a serious national problem in Portugal. Burned area has increased steadily over the past several decades, with particularly devastating years in 2003 and 2005. Ignitions also spike dramatically in summer, which greatly strains firefighting resources and leads to fires that are insufficiently extinguished and later may rekindle. The response of policymakers and fire managers to these problems has largely been to increase fire suppression capacity and technology deployment. This research asks, what are the side effects or unintended consequences of policies dedicated to large and aggressive suppression forces? Much of the previous work in forest fire management focuses on narrowly-defined, static problems solved using optimization analysis. This research uses dynamic analysis, specifically System Dynamics, to explore how self-regulating feedback loops affect the outcomes of forest fire management decisions over time. Two models are developed. The strategic model explores the dynamic between suppression and prevention expenditure and its effect on long-term burned area. The operational model explores the dynamics through which rekindled fires occur. The results from both models show that interactions between relevant social and physical systems, in the form of public or institutional pressure, can force aggressive suppression decisions into practice. Furthermore, strict adherence to these policies can trap each system in a state of long-run worse behavior due to the overwhelming effects of negative feedback loops. Policy recommendations based on the results, and informed by an in-depth analysis of relevant stakeholders and impediments to implementation, are also presented.

Resumo: Esta tese investiga os possíveis sentidos da política cultural durante a governança de D. João no mundo luso-brasileiro entre os anos de 1792-1821. O ponto de partida da pesquisa dá-se no início de sua Regência (1792) e encerra-se com seu retorno a Lisboa (1821). Sob as diretrizes do iluminismo luso-brasileiro, a investigação das especificidades da política cultural joanina recaiu sobre quatro locus de cultura de ampla interlocução social: a imprensa interatlântica, os Reais teatros, as Reais Academias Militares e as Reais Bibliotecas Públicas da Corte. Através de uma abordagem interatlântica, buscamos compreender as peculiaridades da administração joanina no universo da cultura em um período de grave crise política no Império Português
Abstract: This thesis investigates the cultural policy fostered by D. João's government in the Luso-Brazilian world during the years 1792-1891. The project has as its starting point the beginning of his reign (1792) and concludes with his return to Lisbon (1821). In the light of the Luso-Brazilian Enlightenment, the research has focused on 4 cultural locus of wide-ranging social reach: the inter-Atlantic press, the Royal theatres, the Royal military academies and the Court's Royal public libraries. Through an inter-Atlantic approach, the present study hopes to understand the intricacies of D. João's administration of the cultural sector in a period of deep political crisis in the Portuguese Empire

Partindo da identificação de problemas inerentes aos processos de produção de Diagnósticos Sociais no âmbito da Rede Social, o estudo coloca em evidência a fragilidade e inconsistência dos mesmos associados à concepção de políticas sociais e programas de intervenção ao nível local. Seguindo o percurso proposto pela orientação metodológica da investigação-acção apresentado na primeira parte, faz-se a descrição do programa Rede Social e implementação na Grande Lisboa e procura-se de seguida, compreender o contexto onde se insere, procedendo-se a uma breve revisão teórica sobre a concepção da política social e do papel do Estado ao longo dos tempos, concluindo com a noção de território como o novo paradigma da política social na actualidade. Na terceira parte e na assumpção do Desenvolvimento Social Territorial enquanto matriz da intervenção social local, analisam-se os mecanismos de produção dos Diagnósticos Sociais da Grande Lisboa e apresentam-se os resultados. Com a Equipa de Trabalho Intermunicipal criada no âmbito da Plataforma Supraconcelhia da Rede Social da Grande Lisboa desenvolve-se um processo de reflexão em torno dos mesmos e numa tentativa de incorporar esta reflexão na mudança das práticas profissionais e na natureza da própria intervenção social, definem-se contributos para a concepção de um sistema de informação que melhor se adeqúe e responda às necessidades identificadas ao nível da produção de diagnósticos sociais sempre que um profissional, um dirigente ou um decisor político deva tomar decisões ao nível da definição de medidas de política social e programas de intervenção ao nível local.
Starting from the identification of several problems with production processes of Social Diagnostics under the Social Network, the study highlights the fragility and inconsistency of information systems related to the design of social policies and programs of action at local level. Following the direction proposed by the methodological guidance of research-action presented at first, then tries to understand the context in which falls the Social Network program, proceeding to a brief review on the theoretical concept of social policy and the role of the state over time, concluding with the notion of territory as the new paradigm of social intervention at present. Thirdly, on the assumption of Social Development Territorial matrix of social intervention as a local study, were analysed the mechanisms of production of Social Diagnostics in the Great Lisbon area and presented the results of the study conducted by the team involved. With the Intermunicipal Task Team involved a process of reflection is developed on the results and an attempt to incorporate this thinking in changing professional practice and the nature of social intervention itself, contributions are defined to the design of an information system that best suits and meets the needs identified at the production of diagnostic units each time that a professional, a leader or a policy maker has to make decisions in the definition of social policy measures and intervention programs at the local level.

É a visão do Estado e da sociedade face à mobilização dos seus homens para a guerra que irá equacionar os mecanismos de auxílio, aos mesmos. O Código do Inválido (1927 – revisto em 1929) foi um dos primeiros marcos legislativos em Portugal destinados ao apoio de militares em combate. Com o fim da Guerra Colonial e a instauração da democracia, o Estado viria a repensar o auxílio e as compensações atribuídas aos que prestaram serviço militar e se acidentaram, com destaque para as políticas públicas que reconheceram o direito à reparação material e moral dos Deficientes das Forças Armadas. Na transição para o século XXI, a deficiência resultante das perturbações de stress pós-traumático foi integrada em medidas de apoio. E já em 2020, é aprovado o Estatuto do Antigo Combatente que atualizou e sistematizou o ordenamento jurídico português para os veteranos de guerra. Partindo de uma revisão da literatura pretende-se analisar a evolução das políticas públicas destinadas aos antigos combatentes, e numa perspetiva de política internacional comparada, estudar outros modelos e medidas de apoios. Pretende-se ainda identificar as estratégias positivas de coping, com práticas desportivas e de assistência religiosa, no combate ao stress pós-traumático, aspirando a servir de contributo para uma discussão no modelo de proteção social para os antigos combatentes bem como aos militares das Forças Nacionais Destacadas e suas famílias; Public Policies and former combatants: The social protection of the military and family in Portugal Abstract: It is the vision of the state and of society towards the mobilization of their men for war that will equate the aid mechanisms for them. The Invalid Code (1927 - revised in 1929) was one of the first pieces of legislation in Portugal aimed at supporting soldiers in combat. With the end of the Colonial War and the establishment of democracy, the State came to rethink the aid and compensation given to those who served in the military and were injured, with emphasis on public policies that recognized the right to material and moral reparation of the Armed Forces Disabled. In the transition to the 21st century, disability resulting from post-traumatic stress disorders was integrated in support measures. And already in 2020, the Statute of the Former Combatant is approved, which updated and systematized the Portuguese legal framework for war veterans. Based on a literature review, the aim is to analyse the evolution of public policies aimed at former combatants, and from a comparative international policy perspective, to study other models and support measures. We also intend to identify positive coping strategies, with sports practices and religious assistance, to combat post-traumatic stress, in order to contribute to a discussion on the model of social protection for former combatants as well as the military of the Deployed National Forces and their families.

RESUMO Trata-se de uma tese de doutorado em Educação que tem como objetivo analisar os sentidos e significados da experiência de educação social vivenciada por jovens afrodescendentes que participam de políticas públicas voltadas para juventude no Brasil e em Portugal. Quais os sentidos e significados produzidos sobre a experiência da Educação Social com jovens afrodescendentes a partir de políticas públicas de juventude? Essa pergunta de partida orientou outras: que concepções de juventude possuem os educadores sociais que mediam as práticas socioeducativas com jovens? Quais as implicações de práticas discriminatórias para vida dos jovens afrodescendentes no Brasil e em Portugal? Que perspectivas os jovens afrodescendentes imprimem em seus trajetos a partir da experiência de educação social? Ancorada nos estudos da Pedagogia Social, reflete em seis seções sobre a educação social e sua relação com a juventude e afrodescendência. Tomando a pesquisa qualitativa como caminho, o método estudo de caso foi construído através de observação sistemática em projetos sociais em Salvador e Lisboa e entrevistas com gestores de políticas públicas, educadores sociais, jovens, pais de jovens, movimento social e intelectuais. A cultura negra africana emerge como ação de autoria da juventude afrodescendente e as práticas educativas da educação social são debatidas em meio as vulnerabilidades e estigmas denunciados pelos jovens. A comunidade e o bairro social aparecem como lugares de pertencimento e identidade da juventude. Como inspiração para novos debates, elencamos a perspectiva de uma educação intercultural, a formação de educadores para atuação de/para/com as juventudes e a valorização da heterogeneidade e diversidade na prática social e educativa que valide a vivência étnica/racial.
ABSTRACT This doctoral thesis in education analyzes the purposes and meanings of the social education experience of young Afro-descendants who participate in public policies directed at the youth of Brazil and Portugal. What are the purposes and meanings produced about the experience of Social Education with young Afro-descendants based on public youth policies? This initial question guided others: What conceptions of youth do social educators have that mediate socioeducational practices with young people? What are the implications of discriminatory practices for the lives of young Afro-descendants in Brazil and Portugal? What perspectives do young Afro-descendants develop during their paths based on the social education experience? Drawing on Social Pedagogy research, the thesis is divided into six sections on social education and its relation with the youth and Afro-descents. Taking qualitative research as a reference, the case study method was constructed through systematic observation of social projects in Salvador and Lisbon and interviews with public policy makers, social educators, young people, parents of young people, social movements and intellectuals. Black African culture emerges as an action by the Afro-descendant youth and social education practices are debated amid the vulnerabilities and stigmas denounced by young people. The community and the social neighborhood appear as places of youth belonging and identity. As an inspiration for new debates, we highlight the perspective of an intercultural education, the formation of educators to work with and / or/with the youth and the valorization of heterogeneity and diversity in social and educational practice that validates the ethnic/racial experience

Abstract:
Tese de Doutoramento em Política Social
Em todo o mundo, as pessoas com deficiência enfrentam situações de desvantagem em todos os domínios da vida. Entre estas, incluem-se maiores níveis de pobreza, piores indicadores de saúde, níveis educacionais mais baixos, menor probabilidade de participação no trabalho e no emprego, remunerações menos elevadas, piores condições laborais e oportunidades mais reduzidas de progressão na carreira (World Health Organization 2011). Como consequência desta posição social de desvantagem, as pessoas com deficiência constituem um grupo-alvo importante para a política social. Em muitos países, as políticas da deficiência abrangem áreas tão diversificadas como a saúde, segurança social, educação e emprego. Em geral, as políticas da deficiência dizem respeito à criação e implementação de leis, prorrogativas e proibições, acções estatais e estratégias de taxação que respondem a problemas e necessidades das pessoas com deficiência e das suas famílias (Pinto and Fiala 2015). Até aos anos 1970, o modelo médico da deficiência era o paradigma na base das políticas da deficiência. A preocupação central destas políticas era a prevenção, cura ou eliminação da deficiência e, sempre que tal não fosse possível, a assimilação do corpo e da mente das pessoas com deficiência às normas e estruturas dominantes. A responsabilidade do Estado, nesta abordagem, consiste no desenvolvimento e implementação de leis, políticas e práticas que promovem a segregação e reabilitação das pessoas com deficiência (Rioux and Fraser 2006; Tremain 2006). Desde a emergência do modelo social da deficiência, nos anos 1970, as políticas da deficiência têm sido crescentemente informadas por uma abordagem de direitos humanos. A responsabilidade do Estado e, por inerência, as abordagens políticas, alteram-se quando são guiadas por um entendimento sociopolítico da deficiência. Nesta abordagem, já não é a pessoas com deficiência que tem que ser curada, reabilitada ou assimilada em normas e estruturas hegemónicas, mas são estas que têm que se transformar para acomodar as necessidades das pessoas com deficiência. O direito das pessoas com deficiência a um acesso e cidadania igualitários torna-se um dos principais objectivos políticos. Nos últimos anos, as abordagens de “workfare”, que determinam quem tem acesso a um estatuto de cidadania, tornaram-se predominantes nas políticas da deficiência a nível supranacional e nacional (Abberley 2002). Em muitos países, os benefícios tradicionalmente atribuídos a pessoas com deficiência foram restringidos ou eliminados e a participação em medidas de “workfare” – a participação económica das pessoas com deficiência – tornou-se um pré-requisito para acesso a apoios sociais (Morris 2011; Soldatic and Chapman 2010; Owen and Harris 2012; Soldatic and Meekosha 2012; Bussemaker 2005a). Um dos principais objectivos destes desenvolvimentos políticos é reduzir o “peso significativo” que os benefícios sociais, incluindo as prestações por deficiência, colocam nas finanças públicas (OECD 2010, 12), mas também são o reflexo da importância que o trabalho e o emprego assumem nas sociedades contemporâneas. De facto, a ligação entre a identidade e o estatuto ocupacional, apesar de não ser necessariamente uma experiência universal, tornou-se particularmente dominante nos Estados de bem-estar Ocidentais, em que a participação no mercado de trabalho representa um marco importante de valorização da identidade social (Beck 2001b; Galer 2012; Abberley 2002). Como consequência, aspectos que tendem a ser encarados como positivos, como os efeitos da ocupação e participação laboral sobre o bem-estar individual, raramente são problematizados, tanto na literatura genérica de Política Social, como na literatura sobre deficiência. Os decisores políticos afirmam, pelo contrário, que o emprego e estatuto ocupacional são elementos centrais para a participação plena dos cidadãos na vida económica, social e cultural. O direito ao trabalho é, assim, essencial para a realização de outros direitos humanos e forma uma dimensão inseparável e inerente da dignidade humana. O trabalho deve providenciar uma base de sustento para a pessoa e para a sua família e, quando livremente escolhido e aceite, pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento pessoal e reconhecimento social dentro da comunidade (United Nations 2012b; OECD 2010). O presente estudo visa reflectir criticamente sobre a implementação do direito ao trabalho e emprego, tal como consagrado na Convenção das Nações Unidas sobre os Direitos das Pessoas com Deficiência, em Portugal e na Alemanha. Estes dois países divergem em diversos pontos: Portugal, por exemplo, é habitualmente classificado como um Estado de bem-estar do Sul da Europa, em que a família é o locus primário de solidariedade e apoio social (Karamessini 2007; Ferrera 1996). Em contraste, a Alemanha, geralmente classificada entre os Estados de bem-estar conservadores (Esping-Andersen 1990), apresenta um nível elevado de proteção social e um sistema de benefícios generoso. Adicionalmente, ambos os países têm abordagens diferenciadas no que se refere à participação das pessoas com deficiência no mercado de trabalho. No entanto, Portugal e a Alemanha integram a União Europeia e foram afectados por legislação supranacional, como a Directiva Europeia relativa à Igualdade no Emprego ou a Estratégia Europeia para a Deficiência 2010-2020 ou, de forma ainda mais proeminente, pela Convenção sobre os Direitos das Pessoas com Deficiência (CDPD), que ambos os países assinaram e ratificaram. O objectivo do presente estudo é identificar como as diferenças e semelhanças entre estes dois países afectam as realidades das pessoas com deficiência. Para este efeito, é necessária uma estratégia de pesquisa dual, que integre tanto a análise de leis e políticas (o nível dos sistemas), como a monitorização de experiências individuais. • Como foi o direito ao trabalho e emprego (CDPD) traduzido nas leis, políticas e programas nacionais, no contexto alemão e português? • Como é que as pessoas com deficiência, na Alemanha e em Portugal, experienciam, na prática, a efectivação do direito ao trabalho e emprego? • O que se pode aprender, a partir dos casos alemão e português, que permita informar desenvolvimentos políticos futuros nesta área, ajudando a avançar o direito ao trabalho das pessoas com deficiência na Alemanha, em Portugal e noutros contextos? Enquanto as duas primeiras questões visam produzir conhecimento sobre a situação nos dois países, a terceira questão de investigação dirige-se à dimensão comparativa do estudo, procurando identificar boas práticas que possam influenciar desenvolvimentos políticos em ambos os países. Enquadrando-se no âmbito da teoria crítica, este estudo inclui tanto uma análise crítica das molduras legislativas, documentos políticos e estudos de avaliação de políticas, como uma avaliação crítica da situação de facto. Para recolher informação sobre a eficácia das leis, políticas e práticas existentes, foram conduzidas 38 entrevistas semiestruturadas aprofundadas com pessoas com deficiência residindo na Alemanha e em Portugal. Os resultados deste estudo indicam que alterações legislativas recentes, em ambos os países, fortaleceram uma abordagem da deficiência à luz de um modelo de direitos humanos – pelo menos, ao nível formal. Não obstante, o direito ao trabalho e ao emprego carece ainda de implementação plena. A análise crítica revela que a exclusão e discriminação com base na deficiência, no mercado de trabalho, é ainda generalizada. Enquanto na Alemanha o emprego apoiado aumenta o risco de a pessoa se sentir excluída ou de experienciar condições de trabalho pouco dignas, também possibilita uma resposta alternativa ao emprego, numa escala elevada, que não se regista em Portugal. Em Portugal, as pessoas com deficiência apresentam maior risco de desemprego e, devido à insuficiência de medidas de apoio, designadamente medidas de emprego de longa duração, as redes familiares e outras redes de apoio, são chamadas a compensar este défice, incluindo financeiramente. A análise comparativa sistémica apontou ainda que a interseccionalidade da deficiência com outros factores interfere com os resultados das políticas e medidas existentes. Enquanto a posição de desvantagem das participantes do sexo feminino parece ser um fenómeno transnacional, regista-se uma diferenciação binacional quando a idade dos participantes é tomada em consideração. Em suma, enquanto o sistema alemão providencia os melhores níveis de proteção para os cidadãos mais velhos com deficiência que ainda se encontram a trabalhar, as medidas portuguesas focam-se prioritariamente no acesso ao trabalho e emprego e, consequentemente, são mais benéficas para jovens com deficiência em busca de trabalho. Em ambos os países, no entanto, as pessoas com deficiências intelectuais ou psicossociais encontram-se na situação de maior desvantagem. Pesem embora as lacunas e obstáculos evidenciados, a análise revelou oportunidades de aprendizagem bilateral. As recomendações apontadas pelos participantes e a avaliação crítica das leis e políticas em vigor constitui uma fonte valiosa de apoio ao desenvolvimento de políticas futuras na área do emprego. Globalmente, a tese conclui que políticas sociais que apoiem a inclusão das pessoas com deficiência no trabalho e emprego criam estruturas económicas e sociais mais justas e igualitárias, não apenas para as pessoas com deficiência, mas para todos.
The present study critically reflects on the implementation of the right to work and employment as enshrined in the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in Portugal and Germany and frames it within the wider scope of Social Policy. Including the narratives of disabled people themselves, the results of this study indicate that recent legislative changes in both countries strengthen a human rights approach to disability. However, the right to work and employment still lacks full implementation. The critical analysis reveals that exclusion from and discrimination in the labour market on the ground of disability is still widespread. Despite persisting gaps and obstacles, the analysis shows that there is scope for binational learning and presents recommendations for future policy development.

Abstract:
Keeping head above water: social presence in the transitions of Brazilian women to motherhood. Com-paring experiences in Brazil, France, Portugal and Sweden The main objective of this thesis was characterizing and analysing social presence in the transition(s) of Brazilian women from privileged classes to motherhood, in Brazil, France, Portugal and Sweden, in recent years. As a final goal, it intended to contribute to de-construct the hegemonic model of ―good motherhood‖ in Brazil, which is established from the experiences of middle-class white Brazilian wom-en. As methodological strategy, it focused on Brazilian mothers‘ experiences of presences, using Com-puter-Mediated Communication and three methods in parallel: a documentary research on official re-ports of perinatal health and family policies, biographical interviews and recording of daily diaries, artic-ulated through a phenomenological perspective. Therefore, in my fieldwork I searched, in a spiral drift-ing, how certain moral rhetorics associated to gender, class and racial norms are reproduced by privi-leged mothers in maternal transitions. Beyond of this process of reproducing hegemonic representation of motherhood, I also found generating hesitations and ethical enactment among these women towards marginalized mothers such as racialized, single and poor ones. Finally, this thesis discusses how care ethics raise from daily parental relationships and how improving responsive social presence is quite significant for the promotion of such ethics beyond of feminine care work; SUMÁRIO: Com a cabeça fora d‘água: a presença social em torno da transição de mulheres brasileiras para a maternidade. Comparação de experiências no Brasil, na França, em Portugal e na Suécia. O principal objetivo desta tese foi caracterizar e analisar a presença social na(s) transição(ões) das mulheres brasileiras de classes privilegiadas para a maternidade, no Brasil, na França, em Portugal e na Suécia, nos últimos anos. Como objetivo final, este trabalho pretende contribuir para desconstruir o modelo hegemônico de ―boa maternidade‖ no Brasil, que é estabelecido a partir das experiências de mulheres brancas da classe média. Como estratégia metodológica, o estudo foi focado em analisar as experiências de presença das mães brasileiras, através de Comunicação Mediada por Computador e três métodos em paralelo: uma pesquisa documental em relatórios oficiais de políticas de saúde perinatal e em políticas familiares, entrevistas biográficas e gravação de diários, articulados através de uma perspectiva fenomenológica. Por isso, em meu trabalho de campo eu procurei, numa deriva em espiral, como certas retóricas morais associadas às normas de gênero, classe e raça são reproduzidas por mães privilegiadas no cotidiano durante as transições maternas. Além deste processo de reprodução da representação hegemônica da maternidade, eu também encontrei hesitações criativas e enação ética entre as mulheres em relação à mães marginalizados, tais como as mães Afro-descendentes, solteiras e pobres. Finalmente, esta tese discute como a ética do cuidado emerge a partir de relações parentais e como melhorar a responsividade da presença social é bastante significativo para a promoção de tal ética para além do trabalho de cuidado exercido pelas mulheres.

Abstract:
AbstractThe purpose of this chapter is to present and discuss the main impacts of Portuguese public policies in the area of education in Portugal, since 25 April 1974. To this end, diversified information was collected, processed and analysed involving legal and other documents about these national policies, especially those of greater impact on Ciganos, in addition to thorough mapping of ongoing projects of local and social support in the Lisbon and Porto metropolitan areas, where the empirical research is being carried out. At a later stage, interviews were held with technical staff, project coordinators and local institutions, as well as Ciganos and their families. The purpose of using various data collection techniques is to capture the reality experienced by Cigano individuals and families, namely patterns of continuity and social change, particularly in the area of education, through triangulation between the discourses of informants and scientific knowledge already consolidated in these matters. We present a critical and reflexive interpretation of the policy orientations and achieved social rights, focusing on narratives of Ciganos, stakeholders and school representatives centred on what has changed in the school trajectories of Ciganos, in terms of continuity, success and permanence in public education.

Abstract:
AbstractThe schooling process has become more widespread among the Portuguese Roma population since 1974, with the end of the Estado Novo dictatorship and the establishment of democracy. Nevertheless, the Roma nomadism or semi-nomadism, financial shortcomings and the absence of social/cultural/family stimuli are some of the reasons that explain their low school attendance rates. Only in the last decades has such attendance increased, as a result of the implementation of several public policies, particularly of the Social Integration Income. This social policy, implemented in 1996, introduced important changes in this population, especially in areas such as schooling, personal hygiene, housing, health, or sedentism.Recent research has shown an increase in the educational level of the Roma population, but school dropouts and failure remain high. This tendency was also studied in the northeast of Portugal, in a PhD thesis about the relationships between the Roma and school. In the present research work, a qualitative methodology was adopted, using direct and participant observation, as well as interviews to some Roma parents and non-Roma teachers. Both groups emphasize the main difficulties of Roma children at school.The conclusions show that several factors affect these students’ schooling nowadays, especially poor housing conditions, parents’ illiteracy or low schooling, lack of daily study monitoring at home, absence of models in their environment, non-attendance of pre-school, and discrimination against them.

Abstract:
AbstractThe purpose of this chapter is to elaborate on how different patterns of governance contribute to the contextualisation of lifelong learning policies in a specific social context. Taking opportunity structures as frames, different specific governance patterns in three different social contexts are analysed and explained. Three case studies of policies implemented in three European functional regions are described: Istria (Croatia), Malaga (Spain) and Vale do Ave (Portugal). Attention is given to lifelong learning policies that are oriented towards raising the levels of employability of young adults. The notion of employability has been put forward at the EU policy level through different strategies (e.g., Education and Training 2010 and 2020 programmes) and it informs the construction of policies on problems and the solutions to be provided. Conceptually, this chapter is based on Bartlett and Vavrus’ (Rethinking case studies research: A comparative approach. Routledge, 2017) proposal to use three axes (transversal, vertical and horizontal) to explore and compare cases. Thus, the authors explore different ways in which the “employability” and other relevant approaches are materialised in and adapted to historically situated contexts (transversal axis), by different actors involved at different levels of local/regional designs and implementation scales (vertical axis) of diverse LLL programmes implemented in three EU regions (horizontal axis).

This chapter examines the engagement of social work academics in the policy process in Portugal. It begins by presenting an overview of social policy and the historical development of the Portuguese welfare state and by discussing the emergence of the social work profession in that country. The development of social work education in Portugal and its contemporary features are depicted. Following these, the methodology and the findings of a study of the policy engagement of Portuguese social work academics are then presented. The findings relate to the levels of engagement in policy and the forms that this takes. The study also offers insights into various factors that are associated with these, such as perceptions, capabilities, institutional support and the accessibility of the policy process. The chapter concludes with an analysis of the findings and their implications.

Abstract:
This chapter sheds light on the role of political parties as social investment protagonists, consenters, or antagonists in the reform of labor market and family policies in Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain. Drawing on original, hand-coded data of three decades of labor market and family policy reforms in Southern Europe, the findings show divergent social investment trajectories. While Spain and Portugal have started to develop contours of a social investment agenda, little progress has been made in Italy and Greece. Programmatic political competition and government partisanship play a role in accounting for these divergent trajectories. Center-left parties have acted as the primary social investment protagonists in Spain, Portugal, and Italy. However, the Italian center-left remains fragmented and has rarely been in government. In stark contrast, both center-right and center-left parties in Greece have acted as social investment antagonists. Political and economic turmoil in the wake of the Eurozone crisis paints a bleak picture for the further development of social investment in Southern Europe. Once fiscal constraints can eventually be overcome, a core question remains as to what extent an inclusive social investment coalition can be formed in an ever more fragmented political landscape.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the history of regulating recreational drugs in the USA, UK and Australia. It shows that the criminalization of recreational drugs is a relatively recent phenomenon, based not on citizen welfare but on fears that drugs affect the nation’s ability to wage war, whilst some early legislation was openly racist. It argues that the continued justification of drug criminalization is moralistic and has racist underpinnings. It suggests that whilst the social problems of recreational drug use are serious, they are no more serious than those of alcohol or gambling, and legalization has many advantages over continued criminalization. It examines the results of drug decriminalization in Portugal, and the likely practicality and social effects should recreational drugs be legalized. It argues that such legalization would also require careful regulation, much as we have for drugs manufactured for medical purposes. It compares the policy stance of governments on recreational drugs to that on the other issues discussed in this book.

Abstract:
In order for regions today to be globally competitive, their smart specialization strategies cannot be created by an approach limited to one particular region only. The grouping of objectives emphasizes the need to create greater external dynamism by coordinating and maximizing synergies with policy initiatives, instruments and infrastructures in other regions. In this regard, trans-regional cooperation is a central aspect and a challenge of «Smart specialization», especially for neighboring regions with a cross-border dimension. EU best practice shows that cross-border Smart Specialisation Strategies (RIS3T) are singular in the practice of the cross-border RIS approach in the EU. The examples of innovative crossborder cooperation between Portugal and Spain, Germany and France, show that the main objective of this approach is to generate economic knowledge, quality employment through localised smart infrastructure and social well-being by jointly promoting strengths and common challenges. Thus, the Cross-Border − RIS3 aims to enhance the Euroregion's participation in European tenders for inter-territorial cooperation and provides a framework for launching coordinated actions and projects capable of competing with great success in attracting funding within Horizon Europe. The development of such a strategy should be agreed and coordinated on both sides of the border − innovation organisations, clusters, universities and representatives of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre Smart Specialisation team.

Abstract:
The socio-economic environment of the outermost regions of the European Union was severely affected by the COVID-19 crisis. Due to their geographical and historical specificities, the outermost regions were significantly lagging behind the rest of the European Union in terms of economic indicators even in the pre-pandemic period. Expectedly, COVID-19-induced shocks additionally potentiated their development gap. The purpose of this paper is to summarise the multiple impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Guadeloupe, French Guiana, Réunion, Martinique, Mayotte, and Saint Martin (France), the Azores and Madeira (Portugal), and the Canary Islands (Spain), and the related legislative responses of the European Union aiming at eliminating adverse effects of the crisis and building more resilient societies. The factual assessment is carried out primarily through the prism of the European Commission’s 2021 Study on the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Outermost Regions, which underlines the health, economic and social repercussions of the crisis as well as a recommended set of recovery and resilience-building measures in the outermost regions. The legal analysis focuses on the ongoing codification of the rules and measures regulating the governance of the outermost regions as integral parts of the European Union. Pursuant to Article 349 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), the European Union shall adopt specific measures for laying down the conditions for the development of the outermost regions, such as those in the area of fiscal policy, European Structural and Investment Funds, State-aid, agriculture and fisheries policies, and others. In that regard, the paper looks into the recently adopted regulations facilitating the use of EU funds and particular benefits (e.g. tax exemptions) in the outermost regions. Special emphasis is put on the currently tabled initiatives for an updated regulatory framework enabling the outermost regions to improve and strengthen their overall socio-economic position. That mainly refers to the forthcoming European strategy for the outermost regions, to be adopted in 2022. The respective strategy shall lay the foundations for a new strategic approach of the European Union to shaping a sustainable and resilient future for the outermost regions apt to face the challenges of the 21st century, notably those related to green, digital, and demographic transition.

In spatial, social and cultural pluralism, the questions of human intentionality and socio-spatial emergence remain central to social theory (Portugali 2000, p.142). The correlation between individual preferences, values and intentions, and actual behaviour and actions, is subject to Portugali’s theory of self-organisation (2000). Compared to Gidden’s structuralism, which focuses on society and groups, the point of departure for Portugali (2000) are individuals and their personal choices. The key feature in how complex systems `self-organise', is that they `interpret', the information that comes from the environment (Portugali 2006). The current study explores the urban environment formerly inhabited, and largely constructed, by Jews in two central Polish districts: Mazovia and Lodz, before the tragedy of the Holocaust. While the Jewish presence lasted from the 11th century until the outbreak of World War II, the most intensive development took place in the 19th century, together with the civilisation changes introduced by industrialisation. Embracing the everyday habits of Jewish citizens endows the neighbourhood structures they once inhabited with long gone meanings, the information layer which once helped organise everyday life. The main thesis reveals that Jewish communities in pre-war Poland represented an example of a self-organising society, one which could be considered a prototype of contemporary postmodern cultural complexity. The mapping of this complexity at the scale of a neighbourhood is a challenge, a method for which is addressed in the current paper. The above considerations are in line with the empirical studies of the relations between Jews and Poles, especially in large cities, where more complex socio-cultural processes could have occurred.

Title: Internet resources for special educational needs and inclusion Vrasmas, Traian, Ovidius University Constanta, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, Bd. Mamaia Street No.124 Email: traianvrasmas@yahoo.com Vrasmas, Ecaterina, Bucharest University, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, Sos. Panduri nr.90, Email: ecaterinavr@yahoo.com ABSTRACT Introduction The importance of educational and social inclusion for all children and adolescents is clear in the modern world and particularly in Europe, with an emphasis on marginalized and vulnerable groups. Children with special educational needs (SEN) are one important group in this social and educational area. Main objectives: 1. Explore the internet resources in connection with the SEN and inclusion (criteria based), in order to identify the amplitude and the main meanings of the two concepts 2. Built lists of publications available on internet from major resources and making short reviews for some of these Methodology and process Based on the two key words (special educational needs and inclusion) hundreds of websites and blogs were explored, during the first phase. In the second phase some of them were selected – on a short list - according to the consistence to the key words: special educational needs and inclusion. This short list – including resources in English, French and Romanian language - was explored more in depths, following the indicators of: a) Terminology and meanings – for the two main terms b) Coverage (components) for special educational needs c) Linkage between the two terms In the third phase internet resources from UNESCO and European Agency for Development in Special Needs Education (EADSNE) was reviewed, in order to build - for each one - a short list of publica-tions and studies. Findings The main results are presented in synthesis. Objective 1 There is huge amount of web sites and blogs connected with SEN and inclusion. Of course this is more obvious from the internet sources in English. Due to the dynamics and complexity of internet communi-cation (direct and linked sources) is very difficult to make a quantitative estimation, but there are certainly thousands of links in the international arena. From a qualitative approach some major findings were: a) In the English sources from Europe SEN and SNE (Special Needs Education) are by far the most frequently used words. In the USA and Canada SEN is used interchangeably with ‘special needs’ and/or ‘spe-cial education’. In Europe SEN and SNE have a wide usage, particularly in the UK, Spain, Portugal but also at the level of the EADSNE (2 countries from EU as members). In the French sources there is less usage of SEN and SNE terms, but the term “besoignes educatif particuliere’ (particular educational needs) has emerged recently (EADSNE, 2009). In the Romanian sources there is a mixture of using SEN (a little bit of SNE) and also traditional terms as handicap, impairment, learning and language disorders etc. b) There is some variety in Europe, when scrutinizing the coverage (components) for SEN, but the tendency is to take the OECD definition from 2000 (IE: Hungary). Some countries have made recent changes in legislation in connection with SEN meaning and coverage (Scotland and Spain). There are similarities between the content of SEN in Europe and that of ‘special needs; or special education beneficiaries’ in USA. An interesting term in USA is “exceptional children’ (The Council of Exceptional Children), which refers both to children with disabilities and to gifted children. In Romania a pilot project was undertaken by RENINCO in 2007 – in cooperation with the Education Ministry - using the OECD definition of SEN. This definition is also present in a draft strategy for special needs education in the context of inclusion, posted on the Ministry website since April 2010. c) In all languages and geographical entities explored there is a clear and strong connection between SEN (or SNE) and inclusion. UNESCO and the European Agency for Development in Special Needs Education are two important leading organisations in this field, also emphasising a strong connection between SEN and inclusion. Objective 2 After reviewing various resources two of them where selected for a thorough inventory of relevant publications and other resources. UNESCO (www.unesco.org.) is offering, in particular, a lot of information on inclusive education, like for instance the following publications and eReports: - Open file on inclusive education, 2001 - Case studies on inclusive education, 2001 (comprising Romania too) - Guidelines for inclusion. Ensuring education for all, 2005 - Positive discipline in the inclusive, learning-friendly classroom: a guide for teachers and teacher educators, 2006 - Policy guidelines on inclusion in education, 2009 EADSNE (www.european-agency.org) offers resources both on SEN and inclusion, like for exam-ple: - Development of a set of indicators – for inclusive education in Europe, 2009 - Inclusive Education and Classroom Practices, 2003 - Multicultural diversity and special needs education. Summary Report, 2009 - Special Needs Country Data, 2008 - Thematic Key words for Inclusive and Special Needs Education, 2009 The paper presents a short summary for each of these publications. Conclusions The internet resources for SEN and inclusion are very rich and diverse. The idea of Inclusive Education for pupils with Special Educational Needs is widely spread and emphasised on the internet. In spite of the diversity, there are some important common features and clear tendencies in terminology and in the definition of the two terms. The UNESCO work posted on internet – particularly on inclusion – and EADSNE – both on SEN (SNE) and inclusion – are very important and could be wider accessed and better valued in this context.

Abstract:
- O fenómeno do arrendamento de curta duração tem crescido muito na última década e tem ganho um peso de grande relevo na utilização do stock habitacional de algumas áreas, especialmente dos centros históricos. Nas áreas com maior concentração deste tipo de alojamento, a oferta de habitação para arrendamento de longa duração passou a ser escassa. Consequentemente, nestas áreas a habitação perdeu a sua função residencial, tendo esta sido substituída por uma função comercial ou turística. - Perante os impactos negativos do arrendamento de curta duração, alguns governos locais (e.g. Barcelona, Paris, Berlim) têm procurado regulamentar este mercado. - Em Portugal, o arrendamento de curta duração é enquadrado, desde 2008, na figura jurídica do Alojamento Local (AL), cuja atividade é regulamentada por um regime jurídico próprio (Decreto-Lei nº 128/2014). - Em Lisboa, o número de AL tem vindo a aumentar exponencialmente, passando de 46 unidades em 2009, para 19.300 em 2021. A concentração de AL é particularmente significativa nas freguesias do centro (Arroios, Misericórdia, Santa Maria Maior, Santo António, São Vicente), onde se localiza 71% da oferta e onde em 50% dos edifícios existe uma ou mais unidade de AL. - A alta concentração de AL tem contribuído para o surgimento de externalidades negativas. Assistiu-se ao aumento dos valores da habitação, tanto para venda (+118,5% em Lisboa e +169,5% nas freguesias do centro, entre 2014 e 2020), como para arrendamento (+77,4% em Lisboa e +86,4% nas freguesias do centro, entre 2010 e 2020). - Perante o aumento das dificuldades de acesso à habitação por parte da população local, em 2019 a Câmara Municipal de Lisboa (CML) criou o Regulamento Municipal de Alojamento Local (RMAL), limitando, assim, a abertura de novas unidades de AL em algumas áreas da cidade. - Em última instância, a valorização do sector do turismo tem criado dificuldades de acesso à habitação. O aumento exponencial do número de AL tem contribuído para a criação de desigualdades sócio-espaciais e sentimentos de injustiça social, com destaque para as áreas centrais da cidade.

Abstract:
- Ao longo das últimas duas décadas o Estado Português e a Câmara Municipal de Lisboa têm fomentado políticas públicas de reabilitação destinadas a incentivar a atração de capitais transnacionais,encorajando o seu investimento no imobiliário e no turismo. - Em Lisboa, o setor do turismo tornou-se um dos principais eixos estratégicos da retoma económica pós crise financeira de 2008, merecendo especial destaque as freguesias centrais da cidade. - Neste período, os registos de Alojamento Local (AL) e os hotéis têm vindo a aumentar. Segundo o Turismo de Portugal, os AL passaram de 46 em 2009 para 19.300 em 2021. Este aumento é especialmente relevante nas freguesias centrais da cidade (Arroios, Misericórdia, Santa Maria Maior, Santo António e São Vicente) onde se localiza 71% do AL. A mesma fonte identifica que desde 2009 abriram mais 137 hotéis, sendo que 106 destes se localizam nas freguesias centrais. - Paralelamente, entre 2011 e 2021, perderam-se 1,2% dos alojamentos familiares. Este valor aumenta nas freguesias centrais para 18%, onde se nota, também, uma perda populacional (-19%). Destacam-se as freguesias da Misericórdia e de Santa Maria Maior que perderam, respetivamente, 17,9% e 27,8% dos seus alojamentos familiares, e 26,1% e 22% dos seus habitantes. No total das 5 freguesias centrais nota-se também uma perda de população (-19%) (INE). - Verificámos a substituição da habitação por estabelecimentos turísticos relacionada com processos de reabilitação. Apurámos que 34% dos edifícios existentes nas freguesias centrais tiveram, na última década, alvará para reabilitação, sendo que 82,3% dessas reabilitações deram lugar a AL e a hotéis (CML). - Em Lisboa, a habitação disponível quer para venda, quer para arrendamento sofreu um aumento exponencial do seu valor/m2. Entre 2010 e 2009, o valor da venda aumentou 70,9% e o do arrendamento 54,7%. Nos mesmos anos, nas freguesias do centro da cidade o valor da venda/m2 aumentou 99,4% e o do arrendamento 50,4% (Confidencial Imobiliário). Contudo, os salários médios, entre 2009 e 2019, aumentaram 15,85% (INE). - Em última instância, uma parte consistente da reabilitação de que foi alvo o edificado da cidade, não foi destinada a melhorar as condições habitacionais dos residentes. Criaram-se desigualdades sócio-espaciais evidentes, que se destacam nas freguesias centrais, em que a habitação perdeu a sua função social, dando lugar a edifícios para uso turístico.
