- Abstract
The article discusses the relationship between revolution, tourism, and anthropology in Portugal during the PREC period. After the Carnation Revolution in 1974, the country became a destination for journalists, photographers, filmmakers, and foreign intellectuals interested in witnessing and reporting on the revolutionary events. Additionally, political activists, students, and professionals traveled throughout the country to engage in the struggle for peace, bread, housing, health, and education. Tourism also played an important role, with politically engaged tourists and others seeking extraordinary experiences visiting revolution sites and actors. The text explores how tourism can be understood as a field of revolutionary performance and how the revolution influenced tourism, highlighting the different views and interests involved in this interaction. It also analyzes how the landscape of the revolution was commodified by tourism while responding to socialist and internationalist sensitivities. The importance of considering power and labor relations, structural inequalities, and political economy when thinking about revolutionary tourism is emphasized.
