História de uma rua sem nome

Synopsis of História de uma rua sem nome

«História de uma rua sem nome» is the historical essay by Sidónio Garcia, published by Boutique da Cultura in hardback, in Portuguese.

The book reconstructs the history of Rua particular à Azinhaga dos Lameiros, in Lisbon, and of its creators: residents who self-built their houses on their own land outside the law during the dictatorship of Salazar and Caetano. After the 1974 revolution, legalisation remained difficult; with Law 91/95 and the AUGI, the path was opened to regularise those dwellings.

The work was published in 2020 and its cover indicates the subtitle: «Meio Século para a Legalização da AUGI da Rua Particular à Azinhaga dos Lameiros em Lisboa». It includes a preface by Paulo Quaresma.

For readers interested in Portuguese social history and in processes of self-building and urban regularisation.
