MA in GLDS Study PlanMA in GLDS Study Plan

“To be bred in a place of estimation; to see nothing low and sordid from one´s infancy; to be taught to respect one´s self; to be habituated to the censorial inspection of the public eye; (...) to have leisure to read, to reflect, to converse; (...) to be taught to despise danger in the pursuit of honor and duty; (...) to possess the virtues of diligence, order, constancy, and regularity, and to have cultivated an habitual regard to commutative justice: these are the circunstancies of men that form what I should call a natural [as opposed to feudal] aristo-cracy." Edmund Burke, 1791

Message from the Chair of the IAB

“This program will not only be a home for

teaching and research on democracy, but also

provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and

experiences among scholars and practitioners

of democracy from around the world.

This strikes me as a very attractive project,

and I am honoured to have been asked to chair an Interna-

tional Advisory Board that will provide it with oversight

and guidance.

It is clear that the Advisory Board will be an advisory rather

than a governing body, and that our recommendations will

be conveyed to the scientific (i.e., academic) committee

that directs the Institute.

Marc Plattner Co-editor, Journal of Democracy

National Endowment for Democracy, Washington DC

Message from the Program Director

“This new MA program not only aims at com-

bining a strong teaching dimension with high

-quality research. It also intends to provide

permanent forum for scholars and practitio-

ners working in the field of democracy. This

third dimension is perhaps the most innova-

tive and the one that can best help define the whole pro-

ject.

We will provide students with basic knowledge of the field

through a standard course-based two-semester program.

We will add to that a very flexible program of seminars,

lectures, workshops and debates involving scholars and

practitioners from all over the world. We hope that from

this interaction there will emerge new research projects

that will attract some of our best students - who will come

from overseas as well as from Portugal and the Portuguese-

speaking countries. Professor João Carlos Espada

“Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time; but there is the broad feeling in our country that the people should rule, continuously rule, and that public opinion, expressed by all constitutional means, should shape, guide, and control the actions of Ministers who are their servants and not their masters."

Winston Churchill

“Is it well to be a gentleman, it is well to have cultivated intellect, a delicate taste, a candid , equitable dispassionate mind, noble and courteous bearing in the con-duct of life—these are the connatural qualities of a large knowledge, they are the objects of a University.”

John Henry Cardinal Newman, 1854

Democracy Defined

“… this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

Abraham Lincoln

“In the democracy which I have envisaged, a demo-cracy established by non-violence, there will be equal freedom for all. Everybody will be his own master. It is to join a struggle for such democracy that I invite you today.”
