At the end of his two terms in office, Ronald Reagan viewed with satisfaction the achievements of his innovative program known as the Reagan Revolution, which aimed to reinvigorate the American people and reduce their reliance upon Government. He felt he had fulfilled his campaign pledge of 1980 to restore “the great, confident roar of American progress and growth and optimism.”On February 6, 1911, Ronald Wilson Reagan was born to Nelle and John Reagan in Tampico, Illinois. He attended high school in nearby Dixon and then worked his way through Eureka College. There, he studied economics and sociology, played on the football team, and acted in school plays. Upon graduation, he became a radio sports announcer. A screen test in 1937 won him a contract in Hollywood. During the next two decades he appeared in 53 films.From his first marriage to actress Jane Wyman, he had two children, Maureen and Michael. Maureen passed away in 2001. In 1952 he married Nancy Davis, who was also an actress, and they had two children, Patricia Ann and Ronald Prescott.As president of the Screen Actors Guild, Reagan became embroiled in disputes over the issue of Communism in the film industry; his political views shifted from liberal to conservative. He toured the country as a television host, becoming a spokesman for conservatism. In 1966 he was elected Governor of California by a margin of a million votes; he was re-elected in 1970.Ronald Reagan won the Republican Presidential nomination in 1980 and chose as his running mate former Texas Congressman and United Nations Ambassador George Bush. Voters troubled by inflation and by the year-long confinement of Americans in Iran swept the Republican ticket into office. Reagan won 489 electoral votes to 49 for President Jimmy Carter.On January 20, 1981, Reagan took office. Only 69 days later he was shot by a would-be assassin, but quickly recovered and returned to duty. His grace and wit during the dangerous incident caused his popularity to soar.Dealing skillfully with Congress, Reagan obtained legislation to stimulate economic growth, curb inflation, increase employment, and strengthen national defense. He embarked upon a course of cutting taxes and Government expenditures, refusing to deviate from it when the strengthening of defense forces led to a large deficit.A renewal of national self-confidence by 1984 helped Reagan and Bush win a second term with an unprecedented number of electoral votes. Their victory turned away Democratic challengers Walter F. Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro.In 1986 Reagan obtained an overhaul of the income tax code, which eliminated many deductions and exempted millions of people with low incomes. At the end of his administration, the Nation was enjoying its longest recorded period of peacetime prosperity without recession or depression.In foreign policy, Reagan sought to achieve “peace through strength.” During his two terms he increased defense spending 35 percent, but sought to improve relations with the Soviet Union. In dramatic meetings with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, he negotiated a treaty that would eliminate intermediate-range nuclear missiles. Reagan declared war against international terrorism, sending American bombers against Libya after evidence came out that Libya was involved in an attack on American soldiers in a West Berlin nightclub.By ordering naval escorts in the Persian Gulf, he maintained the free flow of oil during the Iran-Iraq war. In keeping with the Reagan Doctrine, he gave support to anti-Communist insurgencies in Central America, Asia, and Africa.Overall, the Reagan years saw a restoration of prosperity, and the goal of peace through strength seemed to be within grasp.

Bienvenus dans La zone critique, le podcast consacré aux questions et pratiques humanitaires. Animé par Judith Soussan et Fabrice Weissman, La zone critique est produit par le Crash, le Centre de réflexion sur l’action et les savoirs humanitaires de Médecins sans frontières. Récits d'opération, partage d'expérience, points de vue d'experts, critique du langage humanitaire: deux fois par mois, retrouver un nouvel épisode dans l'une de nos trois séries:
Besoins, principes, qualité, accès, sécurité, communauté, acceptance, développement, santé globale... C’est quoi le problème ? décrypte le jargon humanitaire et ses clichés. Chaque épisode s’empare d’un terme ou d’une formule à la signification flottante ou discutable. Il montre en quoi leur sens peut être est problématique, trompeur ou galvaudé. Certains épisodes sont issus des archives sonores des formations destinées aux cadres opérationnels de Médecins Sans Frontières ; d’autres sont des entretiens originaux avec des chercheurs et des spécialistes.Comment j’ai négocié avec al-Qaeda, géré un conflit social explosif, raté ma réponse à une épidémie de choléra, tissé des contacts avec les chefs de gangs haïtiens, convaincu le ministère de la santé d’adopter un nouveau protocole de soins, réglé un conflit d’équipe, sorti un fret coincé en douane, compté les morts d’un massacre… Les ficelles du métier s'intéressent aux savoirs pratiques des travailleurs humanitaires. Au cours de conversations libres et ouvertes, nos collègues relatent les opérations auxquelles ils ont participé, commentent leurs succès, leurs échecs et décrivent la manière dont ils s’y prennent pour surmonter les aléas de leurs missions. Les experts sont des chercheur.ses, journalistes ou praticien.nes qui nous présentent leurs travaux sur des sujets permettant d’éclairer les pratiques humanitaires et les contextes dans lesquels elles se déploient – l’histoire de la distinction migrants/réfugiés, la compréhension des violences de masse, ou encore une anthropologie des rumeurs… L’occasion pour les acteurs humanitaires de faire un pas de côté et de mieux penser les situations qu’ils rencontrent. Certains épisodes sont la version audio des conférences organisées par le Crash depuis 2005 et disponibles en vidéo sur notre site ; d’autres sont des entretiens originaux.Bonne écoute !

O podcast Gungunhana. Quando Portugal Raptou um Rei revisita a história de Gungunhana, o último imperador de Gaza, capturado em Moçambique por Mouzinho de Albuquerque no final do século XIX e exibido como troféu em Lisboa.
Nesta série de oito episódios narrativos, exploramos as camadas complexas desta história e o impacto duradouro do colonialismo português. Gungunhana não é apenas um símbolo da resistência africana. A sua trajetória revela as profundas feridas deixadas pelo domínio colonial, que ecoam ainda hoje em Portugal e nas antigas colónias.
Cada episódio reconstrói a vida de Gungunhana e a experiência dos homens que o acompanharam no desterro nos Açores, através de reconstituições sonoras e entrevistas com especialistas moçambicanos, portugueses e europeus, revelando realidades que se escondem sob uma narrativa muitas vezes simplificada.
Este podcast não é apenas sobre o passado. É um exercício de escuta e compreensão crítica do presente. Ao recuperar a história de Gungunhana e contextualizá-la no vasto sistema colonial português, pretendemos lançar luz sobre as formas subtis e explícitas em que o colonialismo ainda se manifesta hoje, quer na cultura e identidade, quer nas dinâmicas sociais e políticas.
Através de uma investigação rigorosa e de técnicas imersivas de storytelling, o podcast convida o ouvinte a refletir sobre as heranças deste período e a reconhecer a importância de um passado que, longe de estar encerrado, continua a moldar as realidades e relações contemporâneas.

Narrada pelo ator José Mata, e com banda sonora original de Moullinex, esta é a história de Vera Lagoa, a mulher mais temida pelos poderosos de todos os regimes: afrontou Salazar, desafiou os militares de Abril e ridicularizou os que se achavam donos do país. Em 1966, uma mulher está desesperada à procura de emprego quando bate à porta de um dos maiores jornais do país. Quer escrever uma crónica de costumes, algo diferente, que Portugal nunca viu. Só há uma condição: vai ter de mudar de nome. O preço é pequeno e está disposta a aceitar. Para trás, fica Maria Armanda Falcão, filha de um revolucionário injustiçado, firme opositora do Estado Novo, secretária de Humberto Delgado e primeiro rosto da RTP. Mas na história de Maria Armanda ainda hão–de caber muitas vidas. Como primeira cronista social do país, organizadora da Miss Portugal, fundadora de um jornal polémico, vítima de atentados à bomba, manifestante, jornalista, contestatária, polémica. Em todas elas será conhecida por outro nome: Vera Lagoa.
