DESIGNING AN IDEOLOGY<br />

TWO CASE‐STUDIES IN THE PORTUGUESE CONTEXT<br />

Abstract |<br />

This paper has the purpose of delimiting the Political, Economic <strong>and</strong> Educational Policies<br />

associated with the Estado Novo as well as providing a vertical interpretational between these<br />

themes <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Architecture</strong> of two case studies – Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) <strong>and</strong> Cidade<br />

Universitária de Lisboa (UCL).<br />

Architectonic <strong>and</strong> Urban options are explored while establishing relationships between these<br />

<strong>and</strong> the modernity ordered by Estado Novo while patron searching for recognition through the<br />

constructions of equipments reflecting both its Monumental character as well as an<br />

Interventive <strong>and</strong> Modern one; later on, this position is inflected aiming then to achieve an<br />

image associated with Tradition, Nationality <strong>and</strong> an Extra‐temporany one.<br />

Key words |<br />

Educational Policies, Estado Novo, Educational <strong>Architecture</strong>, Campus, Urban Planning in Lisbon,<br />

Public Works Policies<br />
