"Mr Sócrates, a market-friendly Socialist inspired by what he calls “Nordic social democracy”, has had to face down strikes and protests from almost every sector of the public administration, including judges, the police, the armed forces and doctors, as he imposed stringent spending cuts, held down pay, reduced sick leave and raised the minimum retirement age for state employees from 60 to 65."

Penso que visto de fora, e através duma lente macro e capitalista, deva ser mesmo isto que se vislumbra.
