Jaime Nogueira Pinto' is a Portuguese deep state actor who has been described as "the Great Father of the Portuguese extreme right since the end of the Salazar dictatorship".[1] He is known to have attended several meetings of Le Cercle in the 1980s.
Background and education
Originally from Porto, he is the son of spinning and textile industrialist Jaime da Cunha Guimarães, married to Rosa Maria De Sena Cardoso.[2]
Jaime Nogueira Pinto obtained a law degree from the University of Lisbon, and is Doctor of Social Sciences, the Institute of Social and Political Sciences at the Technical University of Lisbon.
In his late teens he joined the Movimento Jovem Portugal (MJP)[3][4], directed by Zarco Moniz Ferreira[5], the first Portuguese movement to officially use the Celtic cross of European neo-fascist movements.[4]
While still a student at the Faculty of Law of the University of Lisbon, he co-founded the magazine Política[6]. He was also director of the magazine, which combined an uncompromising defense of the Portuguese Empire with the cultural renewal advocated by Alain de Benoist's Nouvelle Droite[4].
Career
After graduating, he began his career in the legal department of the defunct Banco Espírito Santo E Comercial de Lisboa.
After 25 April 1974, and already married to Maria José Nogueira Pinto, he volunteered for military service in Angola, when the former overseas province was at the beginning of the aftermath of the war for independence. With the worsening of the clashes in Angola, which preceded the definitive withdrawal of troops from the former colonies, and because of an arrest warrant in their name, Jaime and Maria José would eventually have to leave for South Africa, where they were welcomed as refugees in a Red Cross camp.[3]
Returning to Portugal, after a stint in Spain (which coincided with the beginning of the transition after Franco) and Brazil, he became director of the newspaper O Século and, later, administrator of the bookshop Bertrand Livreiros.
He would also return to the University; get a PhD in Political Science, from the Higher Institute of social and Political Sciences of the Technical University of Lisbon, with a thesis entitled "Ideology and Realpolitik in the formation of the foreign policy of the powers", he became a guest assistant professor at that institute, teaching several disciplines in the degrees in Political Science and International Relations.
He also co-founded the magazine Futuro Presente, with professor António Marques Bessa, among others, where he published relevant articles in the field of Political Science.[7]
In addition to being a professor and political analyst with regular intervention in the press (especially newspapers and radio), Jaime Nogueira Pinto is an entrepreneur in the areas of business intelligence, strategic advice and private security.[8]
He is also president of the Board of Directors of the Luso-African Foundation for Culture and member of the Royal Academy of Moral and Political Sciences, Le Cercle, Institut d'études Politiques and the Heritage Foundation.[9]
He was highlighted as “the Great Father of the Portuguese extreme right since the end of the Salazar dictatorship".[10]
In 2007 on the television channel RTP, for the program Os Grandes Portugueses (The Great Portuguese), he was the presenter of statesman António de Oliveira Salazar, winner of the contest.[11]
