CAVACO, Suzana. Opportunities and Constraints: Portuguese Press during the Last Years of the Authoritarian Regime (1968-1974). hist.crit. [online]. 2014, n.53, pp.177-198. ISSN 0121-1617.

The objective of this paper is to analyze the situation of the Portuguese daily press during the last years of the authoritarian regime of the Estado Novo, deposed in 1974, by identifying the opportunities and constraints placed upon the press industry. To this end, we will explore external forces (or macro-environmental elements) that influenced the production and reception of newspapers. We will focus specifically on political, economic, and technological forces. With this, we hope to contribute to a deeper understanding of the Portuguese newspaper industry in a time in which large economic and financial groups purchased many newspapers.
