Abstract (EN): This chapter attempts to establish a link between the phenomenological analysis of social interactions and the historical inscription of the structures of the social space. Combining a socio-historical analysis of the processes of class formation among industrialists in the Porto and North Region of Portugal with an ethnographically inspired historical reconstruction of the universe of encounters, this chapter analyses a collection of news articles published between 1945 and 1974 by a magazine belonging to the most important Portuguese industrialist class association of the time – Associação Industrial Portuense (AIP). With this inventory, the chapter defines the means by which employers (in)vested in the cognitive, verbal and corporal schemes of their authority and confronts these schemes with an analysis of the composition of the dominant classes of Porto in 1965. For this purpose, the study revisits a survey applied, during the 1960s, to employers belonging to three significant industrial districts in the North Region. With the help of multivariate data analysis, a specific configuration of relations between economics and politics is revealed.
