Manuela Arcanjo is a Portuguese university professor. She was Secretary of State for the Budget in Portugal between 1995 and 1998, and Minister of Health between 1999 and 2001.




Education


Maria Manuela de Brito Arcanjo Marques da Costa was born on 12 April 1954. She obtained a degree in Economics from the Instituto Superior de Ciências do Trabalho e da Empresa (Higher Institute of Labor and Business Sciences) of the University of Lisbon in 1978, and a PhD in Economics from the Instituto Superior de Economia e Gestão (ISEG), also known as the Lisbon School of Economics and Management.




Political activities


In October 1995 she was appointed by the prime minister, António Guterres, to be Secretary of State for the Budget. In this capacity she was responsible for preparing the annual Portuguese budgets. She resigned from the post in 1998 after disagreements with the Minister of Finance, António de Sousa Franco. In the 1999 national elections, Arcanjo was elected as a Deputy to the Assembly of the Republic of Portugal, representing Setúbal as a member of the Portuguese Socialist Party (PS). She was then appointed Minister of Health by Guterres, a post she held for 22 months before again resigning, on the grounds that she lacked the resources to carry out her responsibilities.




Subsequent career


Arcanjo became a professor at ISEG, specializing in public finance. In this capacity she continues to be concerned with the country's annual budget, carrying out annual analyses with others under the name of "Budget Watch". These often result in significant criticisms, such as one made in 2013 when she said, ironically, that the Government was hoping that people would die before it had to pay their pensions. Concern with the poverty of retirement has been one of the areas of work in which Arcanjo has concentrated.
