O pensamento central do chefe integralista teve como base a criação de uma concepção de nacionalismo com o objetivo de atingir a construção de uma identidade nacional. O texto propõe uma análise da influência sofrida pelo autor em Portugal de grupos conservadores de base cristã, como os integralistas lusitanos e da própria política salazarista que ocorreu no período do exílio, momento em que passou a definir novos caminhos políticos para a fundação do Partido de Representação Popular.
