Indeed, many studies have denoted that part of the reason for the deepening divide between American liberals and conservatives is due to the fact that both of these groups rely on fundamentally different moral principles. While this research has started to pan outside of the United States of America, it has yet to be applied to the context of the Portuguese republic, which differs from the American political reality. Portugal’s democracy is built on top of a multi-party system, and conventional wisdom divides it into a right and left wing, rather than liberal and conservative. As such, we developed a Moral Foundations Dictionary (MFD) in European Portuguese and analyzed 10 years’ worth of transcripts from parliamentary sessions through the prism of MFT, in an effort to find out which are the parliamentary dynamics in Portuguese political speech. Indeed, we found evidence that the Portuguese political parties place themselves on a right/left wing spectrum when looked at through the lens of MFT, but also that there appears to be a government/opposition dichotomy at play, which could affect party dynamics.A Teoria dos Fundamentos Morais é uma área de estudo com múltiplas e variadas aplicações, incluindo no campo da ciência política. De facto, vários estudos notaram que parte da razão pela qual a divisão entre liberais e conservadores nos Estados Unidos da América (EUA) se tem vindo a aprofundar deve-se ao facto de que estes grupos têm por base princípios morais fundamentalmente diferentes. Embora esta pesquisa se tenha começado a expandir para além dos EUA, tem ainda de ser aplicada no contexto da república portuguesa, que difere da realidade política americana. A democracia portuguesa baseia-se num sistema multipartidário e a convenção geral dita que os partidos se dividem como sendo de direita ou esquerda, em vez de liberais ou conservadores. Deste modo, desenvolvemos um Dicionário de Fundamentos Morais em português europeu e analisámos 10 anos de transcrições do diário da assembleia da república pelo prima da Teoria dos Fundamentos Morais, numa tentativa de descobrir as dinâmicas parlamentares do discurso moral português. De facto, descobrimos evidências de que os partidos políticos portugueses se encontram num eixo direita/esquerda quando são analisados pela lente da Teoria dos Fundamentos Morais, mas também aparenta existir uma dinâmica governo/oposição, que afeta também a forma como os partidos se relacionam.Pinheiro, Flávio Luís PortasOrghian, DianaRUNZúquete, Mafalda Patacão2022-03-08T14:56:42Z2022-01-212022-01-21T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/134081TID:202957985enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:12:32Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/134081Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:47:59.058671Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
