Portuguese Political and Business Elites
This research project has as main objective the construction of a digital database with the identification of Portuguese political and business elites at central and local level, from the beginnings of the Portuguese Constitutionalism (1834) to the present.
It will thus include heads of government, ministers and secretaries of state, presidents of Parliament, members of the Portuguese Parliament, civil governors and mayors, but also businesspersons and entrepreneurs from the north of Portugal. To this end, a comprehensive database has already been built and is hosting the data being collected by the team members.
