Guidebooks as a mirror of Portugal’s economic convergence
Keywords:
Guidebooks, Portugal, Economic developmentAbstract
This research aims to study the way how the economic and civilizational development of Portugal was presented on the 1980’s and 1990’s guidebooks, using textual and imagery components. A content analysis of the texts and pictures of 31 portuguese and foreign guidebooks was developed, confronting the discourse, looking for commonalities and inconsistencies. The research allowed us to conclude that Portugal was presented during the 1980s and 1990s as a country in convergence with the Western Europe, however, signs of rurality and underdevelopment persists. The pictures partially corroborate the discourse of the texts. Of the 811 pictures analyzed, 42% illustrate a rural country, the last stronghold of the rurality in Europe.
