Resumo
Tendo como pano de fundo o Museu de Arte Popular, o presente trabalho procura compreender a decisão política que determinou o seu encerramento em 2008, enquadrando-a no período histórico vivido pela sociedade portuguesa desde o ano de 1948, data em que foi inaugurado, até aos nossos dias. É traçado o registo biográfico do Museu, assim como a matriz institucional que a ele preside, pretendendo-se, com o
auxílio de informação produzida em várias áreas científicas complementares da museologia e presente em fontes documentais de arquivo, estabelecer uma descrição
dos seus principais aspectos caracterizantes – onde se inclui a descrição do percurso institucional, do espaço expositivo, acervo, – bem como das relações funcionais verificadas entre o Museu e as diferentes tutelas dos períodos do Estado Novo e da Democracia.
