Pedro Henrique Santos de Sousa was born in Lisbon in 1950. He studied Architecture at the ESBAL in Lisbon from 1968 to 1970 when he went to Paris to avoid the colonial war. In Paris he first attended medicine school and then the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts where he obtained the Arts Degree in 1975, wining the Rocheron award. In that same year he participated in a group exhibition at the Beaux Arts.
He then returned to Portugal where he received a scholarship from the Gulbenkian Foundation. He became a teacher in 1977, first in secondary schools, and since 1990 at the Caldas da Rainha Art and Design School.
Individual exhibitions of his works took place in Lisbon in 1978 and in Sintra in 1991. He was a founder of the Almada’s Artits Association and participated in its group exhibitions from 1979 to 1984. He had an honours mention at the Caldas da Rainha Bienal in 1993.
He died in August 1994 at Coimbra. Since then his works were exhibited in Almada Municipal Art Gallery and at the Malhoa Museum in 1997. In 2001 and 2002 an exhibition of Drawings and Engravings was shown in Lisbon at the Sala do Risco Municipal Gallery and at Évora’s Museum.

The aim of this article is the study of Lisbon from the time its legal boundaries were enlarged in 1903, until the creation of the Lisbon Metropolitan area in August 1991. The making of urban population is the subject of the second part of this text. In this part we emphasise the regional origins of the majority of the Lisbon population. Only in the 1970-ties the immigration of sub-Sahara Africans became of some significance. The transport networks and the lack of control of the urban expansion in a context of poor public investment are ...

This book was born as a challenge addressed to the Portuguese scholarly community: revisiting the work of historian Miriam Halpern Pereira and develop, discuss, even refute or simply draw inspiration in some of the topics she ever addressed. The outcome is an impressive fresco. Despite the diversity of topics, perspectives and conclusions, the book as whole renovates the discussion about the process of social change and economic development in Portugal during the past 200 years. The guiding thread is a reflection on the directions followed by the Portuguese economy and society, in their successes and their failures, over the past two centuries. This was believed to be the best tribute to Miriam Halpern Pereira, a scholar who became a reference figure of the Portuguese historiography.
