Produced by Isabel Calderon Dinis (Projecto Enclave) and edited by Rita Farinha (Biblioteca Nacional Digital--http://bnd.bn.pt) "Opúsculos por Alexandre Herculano - Tomo 04" by Alexandre Herculano is a collection of essays written in the late 19th century. This volume presents a thorough examination of public issues, particularly focusing on the legal institution of vinculos (entails) in Portugal and the socio-economic conditions surrounding them. Herculano explores complex themes of property rights, social justice, and the implications of abolition within the context of Portuguese society. The opening of this work sets the stage for Herculano's detailed critiques and reflections on legislation that affected the agricultural sector and social structures of his time. He begins with a discussion of the historical context of legislative reforms during a period of significant political upheaval in Portugal, highlighting the attempts to improve the conditions of laboring classes through legal reforms. The author addresses the concept of vinculos, arguing against their continuation as a hindrance to social progress, and emphasizes the need for a more equitable system that fosters individual rights and economic freedom, laying the groundwork for further discussion on the necessity of reforming property laws in relation to justice and economic growth.
