Iscte Centre for International Studies (CEI-Iscte) invites you to the launch of the Portuguese edition of the Democracy Report 2024 on 5 December 2024.
This important publication is the result of a joint initiative between the V-Dem Regional Centre for Southern Europe and CEI-Iscte, and marks a significant moment as it coincides with the 50th anniversary of the 1974 Portuguese Revolution – the historic event that initiated the 3rd wave of democratisation. The report provides an in-depth analysis of the current state of global democracy, with a special focus on democratic developments in Portuguese-speaking countries. The Portuguese translation aims to reach a wider audience, contributing to the dissemination of knowledge and awareness about the challenges and advances in democratic governance.
The session starts at 4pm in Auditorium B2.03 (Iscte Building 2) and will be attended by the Director of CEI-Iscte, Professor Ana Mónica Fonseca, who will introduce the initiative, and Professor Tiago Fernandes, Associate Professor at Iscte, Integrated Researcher at CEI-Iscte and Director of the V-Dem Regional Centre for Southern Europe, who will present the theme ‘Democratisation and Autocratization in the Lusophone World, 1974-2024’. The session’s discussant will be Professor Rui Graça Feijó, from the Institute of Contemporary History (NOVA Lisbon University).
Admission is free.
This session is organised by CEI-Iscte, in collaboration with the School of Sociology and Public Policy and the V-Dem Institute.
You can access the Portuguese version of the report here. Other languages of the report are also available on V-DEM website.
