Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on social science research primarily conducted in Portugal, examining topics such as political engagement, social inequalities, and cultural transformations. Recent articles explore the evolution of national symbols, youth political perceptions, and the impact of housing conditions on institutional trust. The journal also addresses issues of migration, including the experiences of international retirees and descendants of immigrants, and investigates the complexities of gender identity and LGBTQI+ rights within the Portuguese context. Additionally, research delves into the historical transition from dictatorship to democracy and the role of specific institutions like the navy during that period.
