In the first third of the nineteenth century, the rule of D. Miguel constituted the main fracturing element within the Portuguese society, shaping a process of political radicalization with consequences of enormous gravity, which resulted in a brutal civil war and national trauma that took decades to overcome. Far beyond the dynastic question, the Portuguese Civil War (1828-1834) translated a barely reconcilable ideological rivalry, two antagonistic views of the world, positioned under the political banners of absolutism and liberalism. It is from this perspective that we will take a brief look at what was undoubtedly one of the most troubled periods in the history of Portugal, a painful stage in the transition from the Old regime to the contemporary.
Resumo
No primeiro terço do século XIX, a governação de D. Miguel constituiu o principal elemento fraturante no seio da sociedade portuguesa, moldando um processo de radicalização política com consequências de enorme gravidade, que redundou numa brutal guerra civil e num trauma nacional que levou décadas a ultrapassar. Muito para além da questão dinástica, a guerra civil portuguesa (1828-1834) traduziu uma rivalidade ideológica dificilmente conciliável, duas visões antagónicas do mundo, posicionadas sob os estandartes políticos do absolutismo e do liberalismo. É nesta perspetiva que faremos uma breve abordagem daquele que foi, sem dúvida, um dos mais conturbados períodos da história de Portugal, etapa dolorosa na transição do Antigo regime para a contemporaneidade.
