A "social rent" was paid that went towards improvements. Another organisation set up was the Federation of Shanty Town Committees. It was independent of political parties and came to represent , shanty town dwellers. It called for new housing estates to be built in place of the shantytowns, for expropriation of land and for rent controls. The housing organisations faced some of the same problems experienced by the workers' organisations.

Neighbourhood and shanty town committee meetings were seen as opportunities for party building by left parties. A lot of ordinary residents stopped attending meetings when they felt they were dominated by a particular group. By trying to run things in ways compatible with their ideologies they stifled the spontaneous organisational methods of ordinary folk.

Land Occupations At the same time one third of Portugal's population worked as agricultural labourers. They worked for half of the year and were unemployed for the rest of it. When the rural workers saw their opportunity for change they seized it wholeheartedly and began taking over farms, ranches and unused land. At the beginning the government rarely intervened. There was much positive co-operation between agricultural and industrial workers, and the various workers' organisations.

In Cabanas an abandoned farm was occupied with the help of a local neighbourhood committee. Machines were taken from a nearby factory to help clear the land. In Santarem a meeting of farm workers declared that a massive amount of land was to be occupied.

Other workers, armed with pickaxes, arrived in trucks to aid the agricultural labourers and at the end of it over ten major farms were collectivised. Socialism seemed natural to the labourers and there was never talk of dividing up the land. The land was worked collectively and owned by the village as a whole.

By August official statistics reported that over different land collectives were in operation. All these struggles happened against a backdrop of six provisional governments, a few coup attempts and rumours of NATO and right-wing conspiracies.

Where the armed forces had created a space for radical social development by workers it quickly re-invaded the space with programs for government and the economy that had little to do with the revolution. Any independent initiatives were generally stifled by the left and centre "workers parties". The capitalist system itself was never truly tackled en masse and co-ops, collectives and workers' committees had to negotiate on capitalist terms for the price of their labour.

One Trotskyist paper blamed the lack of revolutionary progress on the fact that there was not a "workers party". In fact there were at least fifteen!

Go to group. Go to group 1 event. Act now. The truth. In August an assembly of maintenance workers reduced their hour week to 40 hours by refusing to work the extra four hours. Another assembly, held without union officials, drew up a list of demands including the purging of staff who showed "anti-working class attitudes", wage increases and the right to reconsider collective contracts whenever the workers pleased.

The demands were not accepted by the government, so in response the workers declared a strike, elected a strike committee and posted pickets. All international flights were halted. The TAP workers stood fast and eventually the government sent the military to occupy the airport and arrest the strike committee. Two hundred workers were sacked but were reinstated after mass demonstrations and threats of further strikes.

The hour week was gradually introduced. The first provisional government introduced anti-strike laws around this time. This government was a coalition that included the Socialist Party and the Communist Party.

The TAP strike was the first large-scale strike after April 25th and the government's response was an indicator of how any of the 'post-fascist' governments would treat workers' struggles. The working class however was unperturbed by this.

In October another companies registered disturbances. The trade unions were relics of the fascist era and were considred treactionary by many. It had become common for assemblies of workers to elect delegates to the committees.

These committees were normally elected annually and were subject to recall. By the end of October there was about 2, of these committees. In the summer of the movement began to develop further. Frequently, when demands were ignored by management, workers would occupy their places of employment and in many cases set up systems of self-management. Anywhere from a dozen to several hundred workers would take to running the businesses themselves.

In Unhais de Serra 1, textile workers rid themselves of the management and elected a workers' committee to run the factory. It is estimated that about factories self-managed and co-ops were in operation by the summer of Like the workers' councils, the co-ops were not revolutionary.

They still had to contend with the constraints of capitalism. Despite many co-ops being able to reduce the prices for goods or services, this inevitably led to competition between different co-ops.

Amidst the growing culture of self-management the Proletarian Revolutionary Party started a campaign to launch workers' councils. The idea was to have councils based on workplace, boroughs and barracks; and from these local, regional and then a national council would be elected. This showed their very limited idea of what workers are capable of. Giving places to political parties as well as to directly elected workers' delegates not only diluted democracy but also implied the 'need' for some sort of elite to lead the masses.

A strange notion of democracy! Housing struggles After April 25th people began occupying empty property, unwilling to wait for governmental action. The government, afraid of people's anger, decreed a rent freeze and allocated money and tax exemptions to builders. The military ordered them out but were forced to back down when the families refused. In response to the housing crisis people began to organise collectively. In older working-class and lower-middle-class areas Autonomous Revolutionary Neighbourhood Committees were set up.

The committees were elected from general assemblies of local residents.
