The postmodern interstices within modernity: interpreting the historical controversy
2010
Será que existe algo como um postura pós-moderna? Propomo-nos reflectir sobre a postura cultural que está por trás da teoria pós-moderna. Se nos debruçarmos sobre os fundadores desse movimento, percebemos a que ponto a divisão moderno/pós-moderno constitui, de alguma forma, uma dicotomia artificial. Para além dos aspectos descritivos das mudanças sociais envolvidas no pós-modernismo, olhamos para a intenção originária que orienta os autores pós-modernos.

The file on operation “Priboi”: A re-assessment of the mass deportations of 1949
2002
Abstract Using information from documents found in the Russian State Military Archives, this article discusses the organization and execution of the Soviet mass deportations from the Baltic States in March 1949 — code-named Operation “Priboi” by the USSR MVD. These findings are presented for the first time in English, in the context both of established historiographical interpretations and recent literature on the deportations. The aim is to encourage a scholarly reassessment of Operation “Priboi” as a crime against humanity perpetrated by the Soviet occupation regime, but supported by indigenous collaborators to a far greater degree than previously assumed.
