History as Civic Action. An Interview with James Naylor Green
In this interview, James Green, a prominent Brazilianist, tells us about his interest in Brazilian history, his life as a civic and political activist against authoritarianism in Brazil and for gay and lesbian rights, and his academic work and career. The purpose of the interview, besides bringing his work to a wider audience of European historians and social scientists, is to reflect on the relationship between academic work and political and id…
Contraband, Crisis, and the Collapse of the Old Colonial System
As much as I understand Ernst Pijning’s desire to engage in the controversy over the breakdown of the Portuguese-Brazilian colonial system, and unreservedly welcome his comments, I fear that the discussion will now be confined to a subsidiary point that I tried to avoid in the essay that prompted Pijning’s response.

From Growth to Collapse: Portugal, Brazil, and the Breakdown of the Old Colonial System (1760-1830)
The breakdown of the Portuguese-Brazilian empire has been a topic of controversy for a long time. The dispute has converged on matters of fact as much as on matters of interpretation.

Thus a variety of explanations …
To Have and to Have not». The Economic Consequences of Empire: Portugal (1415–1822)
The assessment of the economic consequences of empires from the fifteenth century to the present raises a set of problems which should not be concealed, if we are to provide any meaningful answers to the questions implied in such a survey. First, it is useful to remember that these questions, as so many addressed by social scientists, are immersed in the interminable ideological debate about the development of nations. For example, it is not easy…
