Encyclopedia > Ferro Rodrigues

Eduardo Luís Barreto Ferro Rodrigues (born in Lisbon, November 3, 1949) is a Portuguese politician and economist.


He was Minister for Social Security, and later for Public Works in the governments of António Guterres.


Shortly afterwards, in 2002, he was elected Secretary-General of the Portuguese Socialist Party, a position he retained for two years in spite of the multiple scandals that surrounded the party during that time. He finally resigned on July 9, 2004, immediately after President Jorge Sampaio announced a decision not to hold early elections when former Prime Minister Durão Barroso stepped down from office in order to be appointed President of the European Commission.

O radicalismo pequeno-burgues da alternativa socialista -- DOTeCOMe Forum (2) (3221 words)
The social democratic, Partido Socialista (PS), the largest opposition party, during the government of Durão Barroso, was involved in a paedophile scandal that involved prominent public figures, including one of the leaders of the PS and included the previous general secretary, Ferro Rodrigues.
Ferro Rodrigues while he is considered to be a "left-winger, has always been "surrounded" by PS apparatchiks who are clearly pro-capitalist and heavily involved in local councils riddled with corruption.
