?A masterful account of the first six years of the Portuguese revolution (1974-80) and the first to pay special attention to the interplay and shaping of political events by economic developments. It shows how-much of those events are tied to the particular situation of today's world of increasing interdependence among nations, and especially the dependence of developing countries on the ruling international economic organizations. . . . A must in undergraduate courses on present Portugal. Public libraries should acquire the book for informed readers.?-Choice
