REGIONAL INNOVATION PROPENSITY IN PORTUGAL: AN ANALYSIS BASED ON PATENT DATA. This paper analyses the regional distribution of patents in Portugal in the period 1980-2008 using information that was recently made available. Lisbon leads the national ranking by far. However, towards the end of the period under analysis, a few regions around Oporto have increased their share in the total number of patents. This has taken place alongside an increase in the total number of patent applications from 2000 onwards, after two decades in which that number remained basically stagnant in Portugal. The main protagonists of this recent increase have been universities and other academic institutions. The paper concludes by stressing that the lack of growth in patent applications by the business sector is a cause for concern, given the gap that still separates Portugal from the countries that top the international patent rankings.

Taking as reference the social situation of Porto's historic centre in the final years of the dictatorship that lasted in Portugal until 1974, and considering the configuration of State action and the very different forms of civic and political participation of local social agents before and after the transition to democracy, this paper presents some analytic contributions to the development of the sociological debate on the relation the working classes in contemporary cities have been establishing with the State and the universe of civic and political stances.
