Resumo(s)
Development of knowledge in Portugal occurred late and slowly, mainly as a result of political
and institutional factors which persisted with democracy. Amongst knowledge key areas,
education, research and development (R&D) and innovation advanced with frequent setbacks.
This irregular behaviour induced very negative economic and social consequences given the
spillover and multiplier effects arising from those areas. Significant progress took place at the
onset of the 21st century, despite the lack of a systematic knowledge strategy that would
guarantee consistent articulation between key areas and stakeholders. Important imbalances
have thus been taking place which severely challenge knowledge regulation process, in which
public policies have played an essential role. However, despite the ratification of EU Strategy
2020, Portuguese Government has drastically been diminishing support to education and R&D
over the last years, as a consequence of the austerity programme, thereby leading, with other
factors, to the now visibly obvious regression in the development of knowledge.
