Resumo: The research unit, OBSERVARE, has formulated a working group for the research project designated Cities and Regions: paradiplomacy in Portugal. This project is
linked to one of the three major lines of inquiry by the Scientific Council of OBSERVARE
entitled Peoples and States: Constructs and Interactions, envisioning a contribution to understanding the role of international actors seen in its genesis, dynamic and evolutionary dimension, and manifold relationships.2014-01-01T00:00:00ZOn the dual and paradoxical role of media: Messengers of the dominant ideology and vehicles of disruptive speechRebelo, Joséhttp://hdl.handle.net/11144/7922020-11-25T11:05:08Z2014-01-01T00:00:00ZTítulo: On the dual and paradoxical role of media: Messengers of the dominant ideology and vehicles of disruptive speech

Resumo: This article aims to evaluate the dual function exercised by traditional media - TV, radio
and press – as a place of ideological production, assuming the power of communication
as a method of naturalization, and as a place of confrontation, giving voice to alternative
projects. First, the function of ideological production, in regards to the national and
international media coverage of the financial crisis in Portugal, warrants consideration.
Furthermore, the role of media confrontation is illuminated by the coverage of protests in
Portugal and Brazil. Concluding, if traditional media convey dominant norms and
hierarchies, notwithstanding the pressure on social networks, this mode indicates a
deviation, thus contributing, even if indirectly, to a redefinition of people and culture.2014-01-01T00:00:00ZFrom war to peace.

Resumo: The nature of conflict is changing. The occurrences of formal international intervention, in a
complex theater of operations with operational requirements, necessitate the engagement of
international forces with military and civilian capabilities, namely a distinctive type of police
force. Since the end of the last century, the Portuguese Republican National Guard (GNR)
has deployed to stabilize various conflicts throughout the world.
The GNR contributed when UN resolutions mandated constabulary requirements, but this
participation was never framed within a multinational force of NATO. However, the GNR
works under the same NATO doctrine for force employment constituted on the basis of
military units with police functions, called the Multinational Specialized Units.
The Guard is a military organization with the expertise to contribute to peace. This unique
competence stems from capabilities over the entire spectrum of police functions within
unstable environments, including a unique ability to overcome the Security Gap. Likewise,
by concurrently deploying with the military forces, the GNR demonstrates the ability to use
force in a legal manner by fostering a comprehensive approach within the security and
judiciary system.
This holistic capacity goes beyond a purely institutional approach. By executing police
functions in unstable environments the GNR contributes to the pursuit of credible
Portuguese foreign policy interests in Peace-Enforcement Operations..2014-01-01T00:00:00Z
