An unofficial LaTeX template for doctoral theses in Political Science (Comparative Politics) at the Institute of Social Sciences, University of Lisbon (ICS-ULisboa). It implements the formatting rules published by the institution at https://www.ics.ulisboa.pt/trabalho-final, so that students do not have to translate a regulation into LaTeX settings themselves. Compiles with XeLaTeX. The included latexmkrc invokes XeLaTeX even when pdfLaTeX is selected, so the project compiles on Overleaf without changing any setting.
