 The death of Portugal's richest man: a lesson in how a revolution was betrayed
In 1932, Salazar created the so-called Estado Novo (New State), a fascist state in which he exercised all executive and legislative functions, controlled local administration and the police, and was head of the only legal political party—the União Nacional (National Union).
His life illustrates how a pillar of the Salazar fascist dictatorship, forced to flee during the 1974 Portuguese revolution, was rehabilitated after the revolutionary threat to the bourgeois order was diverted by social democracy and Stalinism.
The most important function of Salazar’s regime for Portugal& ruling elite was to prevent any struggle by the working class crystallising at home and opposition developing in the colonies.
