Résumé The present paper analyses the June 5th, 2011, parliamentary elections in Portugal, and begins by introducing the reader to the background of the 2011 national elections: the exercise of power in the XI Legislature, the economic crisis, the Bailout Agreement for Portugal, and the electoral campaign. Then, the 2011 electoral results are described and compared with previous national elections. Overall, the picture displays a strong defeat of the left that paved the way for the most neoliberal government in the Portuguese history. Voters also voted for stability: the right-wing parties declared that they were willing to cooperate (and in fact they formed a coalition government very quickly), whereas the left-wing parties have shown in several occasions that they are unable and unwilling to cooperate.
