Jacques Marcadé also wrote Le Portugal au XX° siècle (1910-1985) [Portugal in the 20th century (1910-1985)] for a wider audience. This was a dense and educational book that covers both the country's geographical background and the historical stages of the period concerned, from the First Republic to the consolidation of the Carnation Revolution and from the end of the Empire to Portugal's entry into the Common Market, based on a detailed and objective chronology. Marcadé's view of the composition of the political class after the revolution of 25 April, the Church's reaction and the role it plays, and the issues raised by economic factors leads to a lucid and premonitory assessment of great interest.
