LOCAL NOTEBOOK – FLAVORS OF DOWNFALL: WHEN POWER IS HUNGRY FOR MIRRORS

Castelo Branco hosts the "Sabores de Perdição" festival, a four-day celebration of the flavors, knowledge, and identity of Beira Baixa. In a critical editorial, the author questions the boundary between promoting the city and promoting those who govern it, warning of the risk of confusion between the municipal institution and the executives' image. Using satire about political merchandising, Fernando Pires argues that a city council is not a private company, that producers and artisans should be protagonists and not extras, and that true territorial development requires policies with continuity beyond the festive calendar. The article includes the festival program, featuring local artists such as Cordinhas da Beira Baixa, Viola Beiroa, and the Sinfonietta of Castelo Branco.
