Talk:Marcelo Caetano

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is part of WikiProject Fascism, an attempt to better organize and unify articles relating to the fascist ideology, its impact on history and present-day organisations closely linked to both of these (ideology and history). See project page, and discussion. This article may be listed on an index of fascist movements or people. Such listing may be controversial; feel free to contribute to discussions there. The presence of this Talk page-only template only implies that the subject is of interest to the associated WikiProject.

Marcello Caetano is the correct spelling, although the usual spelling nowadays for that name is Marcelo.

[edit] Factual accuracy

I find the statement that the war in Africa was consuming 40% of the national budget dubious. That is the sort of figure associated with a national war of survival. It needs a credible source or to be removed. CalJW 20:08, 11 September 2005 (UTC)

I have seen it cited many times here in Wikipedia and, having studied the Portuguese economy during the 60's and 70's to a rather extensive degree, I can confirm that it is definetely not true. --MiguelFC 19:25, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
