dc.description.abstractOn a recurrent way we verify annual rural fires in Portugal namely since 1975 by combination of natural factors, negligent and criminal behaviors and failure of (para) State entities. In 2017 the Portuguese were confronted with two enormous tragedies in the North and Centre of the country with losses in goods, animals and especially 112 human lives. Over two centuries the forest had a huge increase in a uneven agrarian structure, being most possessed by small owners. However, in addition to the forestation process imposed by the Salazar regime in the years 40-50, the rural exodus and correlative massive emigration since the ' 60 caused a relative depopulation, leaving the villages inhabited by elderly people, vulnerable and unable to make the cleaning of the forest once held in the traditional agricultural cycle. On the other hand, the interests of the of large cellulose companies and paper pulp production planted profitable monocultures as the eucalyptus at the expense of indigenous trees more resistant to fire. Finally, the common agricultural policy of the EU and the abandonment of agriculture and closure of forest service’s by the State plus the decapitalization of infrastructures and public services contributed to the territorial disordering, creating conditions for an explosion of rural fires.pt_PT
