1. The Portuguese legal and political system

1.1 Introduction

Portugal became independent in 1143 and is one of the oldest nations in Europe. Except for a brief period of 80 years, between 1580 and 1640 (when Portugal and Spain were united under the same crown) Portugal has been sovereign over the same European territory for several centuries. Moreover, the Atlantic expansion between the 14 ^th and the 17 ^th century allowed Portugal to develop and maintain a colonial empire reaching as far as Africa (Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, Guinea and S. Tome and Prince) South America (Brazil), Asia (possession in India and China) and even to the Pacific Ocean (East Timor). At the same time trade with the local populations was developed and Portugal settled a huge number of commercial outposts throughout the world.

Portugal

There is a tradition of legal stability in the Portuguese legal system. Although there have been significant political changes over the centuries, the truth is that the core of the legal system seems to be able to outlive the political regime who enacted them. Portuguese legal system is considered to be a classic civil law system, with strong German and Italian influence.

The Portuguese legal system started to develop in the 13 ^th century with the laws enacted by King Afonso II in 1211, and later compiled in Kingdom’s Ordinations of D. Duarte (1433-1438?). These documents were the base for the codification of Ordenações Afonsinas in 1446 that were in force until 1521, when they were replaced by Ordenações Manuelinas . Altogether, some of the laws included in the first Portuguese code ( Ordenações Afonsinas ) were in force for about 300 years, between 1211 and 1521. The second code of Portuguese legislation ( Ordenações Manuelinas ) was in force between 1521 and 1595 , when Ordenações Filipinas were enacted; the later were, although with significant changes, in force until the 19 ^th century, when the first modern civil codification, Código de Seabrawas enacted (1867). This code was in force until 1967, when the present Civil Code entered into force.

Along with substantive law, Portuguese civil procedural law claims an equally long tradition. The first rules of judicial organization date back to 13 ^th century by the hand of King Afonso II; the Supreme Tribunal of the Court was established in this period and, after some changes in its name, became the modern Supreme Court of Justice. Some key instruments of Civil Procedural law in Portugal include the Ordinance of 1582, restructuring procedural law, the Law of the 20 ^th of August of 1774, who restructured the judiciary organization and procedural law, and the Laws 22, 23 and 24 of 1832, drafted by Mouzinho da Silveira , that operated a complete reform of the Portuguese judiciary and Civil procedure that last, although with numerous changes and amendments, until the 22 ^nd of September 1926, when all of it was replaced by the Decreto n.º 12353. Previous Portuguese civil procedural law had relied, until then, on a private conception of the procedural affaire; the main principle governing all the proceedings was the Principle of the party initiative: the parties were in charge of driving the courts action and carrying all proof for the judge to assess and finally rule. The magistrate was mainly a viewer, not an actor. The 1926 reform changed all this and paved the way for a Portuguese Code of Civil Procedure, enacted in 1939. This Code was replaced in 1961, amended for the first time in 1967, the second time in 1969, then 1970, 1974, 1975, five times in 1976, twice in 1977, once in 1978, twice in 1979, twice in 1980, once in 1982, twice in 1985, twice again in 1986, once in 1988 and 1990, once in 1991, once in 1993, once in 1994, twice in 1995, again in 1996, three times in 1998, once in 1999, once in 2000, twice in 2001, once in 2002, three times in 2003, once in 2004, four times in 2006, twice in 2007, five times in 2008, once in 2009, twice in 2010 and once (until October) in 2011. Fifty seven amendments in fifty years, nearly half of it in the last ten years!!!

It is unclear the relationship between these amendments and the dramatic situation of the Portuguese Courts. Portuguese judiciary is usually and consistently considered to be quite inefficient, both by public opinion, legal professionals, stakeholders and international organizations. A clear evidence of such inefficiency is the length of cases in Portuguese Courts: the average time of enforcement proceedings was 32 months in 2005 and increased to 43 months in 2010, whereas for civil proceedings the average time of a case was 28 months in 2005 and decreased to 20 months in 2010. Criminal justice is in no better shape: a criminal case is expected to end after 10 months – this statistics are from the first instance only: no appeals are considered.

1.3 Political system

T he Constitution of the Portuguese Republic of 1976 was approved after the revolution of the 25 ^th April 1974. This revolution put an end to the authoritarian dictatorship of the Estado Novo, which had risen with the approval of the Constitution of 1933. It has undergone seven amendments in 1982, 1989, 1992, 1997, 2004, and 2005. With 296 articles, it is one of the longest Constitutions in the World. It is the sixth Constitution in the Portuguese history and the third Republican one.

The 1976 Constitution establishes a democratic republican form of government under the rule of law and a comprehensive system of fundamental rights and freedoms. Initially very strongly socialist-oriented, later amendments to the Constitution made it more liberal. The Portuguese Constitution is further open to international law and committed to the European Union objectives.

The President of the Republic, the Assembly of the Republic, the Government and the Courts are the bodies which exercise sovereign power. The fashion by which the Constitution shapes the inter-relations among these bodies results in a semi-presidential regime.

The President of the Republic shall represent the Portuguese Republic, shall guarantee national independence, the unity of the state and the proper functioning of the democratic institutions, and shall be ex officio Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. The President of the Republic is elected for five years by the universal, direct, secret suffrage of all Portuguese citizens. Its competences are essentially political.

The Assembly of the Republic has a minimum of one hundred and eighty and a maximum of two hundred and thirty Members (its present composition) and represents all Portuguese citizens. Members are elected for plurinominal constituencies geographically defined by law in proportion to the number of citizens registered to vote therein. Each legislature lasts for four legislative sessions. All the discussions held in the Assembly are available in the Diário da Assembleia da República . The Assembly of the Republic has political, legislative and oversight competences, as well as the competence to amend the Constitution.

T he Government is the body which conducts the country’s general policy and the supreme authority in the Public Administration. It is composed of the Prime Minister, Ministers and Secretaries and Under Secretaries of State. The President of the Republic appoints the Prime Minister after consulting the parties with seats in Assembly of the Republic and in the light of the electoral results for such Assembly. The remaining members of the Government are appointed by the President of the Republic upon a proposal from the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is therefore responsible to the President of the Republic and, within the ambit of the Government’s political responsibility, to the Assembly of the Republic. The Government has broad political, legislative and administrative competences.

2. Legislation

2.1 Sources of Law and system’ structure

Today, Portuguese legal order includes: Constitutional laws, which comprehend the Portuguese Constitution itself, miscellaneous constitutional laws and laws amending it, the principles of international law, international agreements and the provisions of the treaties that govern the European Union and the acts issued by its institutions; Ordinary laws, which comprise laws enacted by Parliament, decree laws issued by the Government, and regional legislative decrees adopted by the Legislative Assemblies of the Autonomous Regions of the Azores and Madeira; Instruments with effect equivalent to that of laws, such as acts approving international conventions, treaties or agreements, generally binding decisions of the Constitutional Court declaring measures to be unconstitutional or illegal, collectivelabour agreements and other collective instruments regulating labour relations; Regulations, or legislative instruments of lower status than laws, whose purpose is to supplement laws and fill out the details so that they can be applied or implemented. These comprise regulatory decrees, regulations, decrees, regional regulatory decrees, decisions, rules, ministerial orders, executive rulings, and municipal orders and regulations.

The backbone of the Portuguese substantive law is the Portuguese Civil Code. This is especially true for Private law, but, to some extent, that is the case of Public law as well. Most of the basic legal concepts upon which the system is build are laid there. Such is the case of the enumeration of the sources of law: articles 1 to 5 are dedicated to this subject.

The system gives clear supremacy to the law, defined in clear and narrow terms: law is a generic rule enacted by any organ with legislative powers. Those bodies are, according to the Portuguese Constitution, the Parliament (AR – Assembleia da República ), the Government, the regional Assemblies in Azores and Madeira regions and, to some extent, local assemblies and councils. In brief, law in this sense, may be designated as legislation. Courts decisions are not a source of law. The one clear exception is the case of the decisions of the Constitutional Court. The custom is not an immediate source of law. It is only accepted as an ancillary source and only when legislation itself admits it. Equity may only be used when the legislation so determines.

2.2 Interpretation of statutes – legal hermeneutics

Legal interpretation aims to clarify the range of the factual situations and of the consequences included. Legal interpretation uses several elements. The first is the literal or grammatical element, i.e., the text of the law. The second element is the systematic element, i.e., the place, in a given legal order, where the rule is included; this element is particularly useful to broaden or narrow the range of the rule: if a rule determines that a contract must be concluded in writting and this rule is included in a law applying to the lease contract, one cannot conclude that all contracts must be conclude in writing; the command shall apply only to the foreseen contracts. The third element is the teleological one, which is used to correct the results of the application of the previous elements in light of the aims and goals of the rule and of its very existence. There is a fourth element, the historical, that places the law in the context of the moment when it was written, through the readings of any ancillary or preparatory materials.

Diagram 1 – Legal hermeneutics

Legal interpretation is also used to answer legal omissions. The result is that legal interpretation may be analogical or extensive. The first happens when a general rule is applied to a similar uncovered factual situation and the second when a special rule is applied to a similar uncovered factual situation. Some rules however, such as some criminal rules, must be subject of restrictive interpretation, thus preventing the two previously described situations. Analogical and extensive interpretation deal with three concepts: legal omission, generic rule and special rule. Legal omission happens when the law does not foresee a given factual situation. In such a situation, the interpreter may search for a general rule with a similar factual description and apply it analogically. General rules, however, may be limited in scope by a special rule, i. e., when a small change in the facts will determine a different solution. In such case, if the facts are closer to the description in this special rule, then the interpreter may apply the special rule by extensive interpretation.

4.2 Legal education in Portugal

Legal higher education in Portugal is divided in three stages: the first cycle of studies, called Licenciatura, is accessible to students after completion of 12 years of study. It last for 4 years, corresponding to 240 ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) and gives access to internships leading for most legal professions. This degree is equivalent to level 6 of the European Qualifications Framework.

The second cycle of studies is Mestrado . It is accessible to holders of Licenciatura or equivalent and has a length of two years (120 ECTS); it usually requires the presentation, in writing and viva voce, of a dissertation and is equivalent to level 7 of the European Qualifications Framework.

The third cycle of studies is Doutoramento . It is accessible to holders of Mestrado and has a duration of no less than three years or 180 ECTS. It requires the presentation, in writing and viva voce, of a dissertation. It corresponds to level 8 of the European Qualifications Framework.

All Law Schools in Portugal deliver the first two cycles of legal higher education in Portugal. The third cycle is not available in all of them. Tuition in Portugal is in Portuguese and quite often the written assignments and dissertations, when applicable, must be delivered in Portuguese.

4.3 Advanced legal education in Portugal – English taught programmes

Some Portuguese Law Schools and Faculties have introduced, in the last years, taught programmes in English. This is the case of University Católica LLM , Minho University School of Law LLM and IJP – University Portucalense LLM and Joint European PhD (under accreditation, at the time of publishing of this article, in Portugal, Slovenia and Croatia).

4.4 Legal Science Research in Portugal

4.4.1 The Portuguese system for research in Legal Science

Portuguese research in Legal Sciences is performed at a reduced number of Research Centres (13, although this number includes some more Political sciences specialized institutions – see R&D 2007 FCT assessment ). All Research Centres are integrated in Law or Political Sciences Faculties, reflecting the structure of the Portuguese Legal Higher education system. There are several consequences of such an organization; in the first place, most units have only legal sciences researchers – the teaching staff of the host Faculty or School; in the second place, the number of doctorate researchers or teaching staff in Portugal is quite limited (374, including retired staff – see http://www.dgeec.mec.pt/np4/39/?page=0 ); the third consequence is that Legal research is usually focused strictly in Law, most of the time in black letter Law or history of Law, mainly about National law, performed by Legal scholars with no assistance or help from researchers of other scientific areas, and at a distance of the issues arising from the Law in action; the forth consequence is the small level of international integration of research, mostly expressed in advanced formation, delivered by the Faculties and aimed at Portuguese speaking countries nationals; finally, the aseptic Legal research environment thus created induces faculty inbreeding and, as a result of the traditional approach to Legal research common in Portugal, research methodologies and the relevance of contemporary Comparative law research and methods are often undervalued.

4.4.2 National competitive funding and Research units assessment

The Portuguese national science policy is performed by the FCT – the national funding agency for science, technology and innovation , in all scientific domains, under responsibility of the Ministry for Education and Science.

FCT’s mission is to continuously promote the advancement of knowledge in science and technology in Portugal, attain the highest international standards in quality and competitiveness, in all scientific and technological domains, and encourage its dissemination and active role in society and in economic growth.

FCT pursues its mission by funding fellowships, studentships and research contracts for scientists, research projects, internationally competitive research centres and state-of-the-art infrastructures, via competitive calls with international peer-review. FCT ensures Portugal’s participation in international scientific organisations, fosters the participation of the scientific community in international projects and promotes knowledge transfer between R&D centres and industry. Working closely with international organisations, FCT coordinates public policy for the Information and Knowledge Society in Portugal and ensures the development of national scientific computing resources.

FCT is also responsible for the assessment of the national research units in all scientific domains. The research assessment exercise takes place every five years and the last one occurred in 2007. There is an ongoing research assessment exercise and the results are expected to be published by the end of 2014 or early in 2015.
