Abstract
In this article we deal with the political resistance of intelectual Portugueses who migrated to the city of São Paulo in the 1950s. The vast majority of these intellectuals, were persecuted for their contrary ideas to the Salazarist regime in Portugal. Such intellectuals left their homeland to avoid being persecuted and arrested by the PIDE. In São Paulo city, they began to express themselves through academic productions, conferences, publications of books, articles and magazines; later they created the newspapers Portugal Democrático and Portugal Livre, the latter being the result of dissent from the former. These intellectuals formed a platoon of resistance to the Portuguese dictatorial regime, spreading ideas favorable to freedom of expression in Portugal and the decolonization of Portuguese Africa, which consequently weakened the Portuguese dictatorial system. The ideas of these intellectuals added to the international situation and the transformations through which spans this historical period.
