Immigrant Entrepreneurship
This Special Issue aims to provide an extensive mapping of policies in the promotion of ethnic entrepreneurship in a number of countries. It is motivated by the desire of national and municipal Governments to create an environment conducive to setting up and developing SMEs in general and immigrant businesses in particular. Furthermore it also highlights how the third sector has also had a crucial role in the reinforcement of immigrant entrepreneurship, and provides indications of how best to address this issue at a Governmental level in the future.
Associativismo Imigrante
Este número da Revista Migrações subordinado ao tema do associativismo imigrante tem como principal objectivo fornecer uma visão multifacetada das dinâmicas associativas das populações imigrantes a residir em Portugal. Como tal, este número temático constitui-se, como um espaço de divulgação de conhecimentos e de saberes, que pretende dar a conhecer a realidade do associativismo imigrante a partir do cruzamento de diferentes perspectivas e eixos de análise. Face à complexidade do fenómeno das migrações e do associativismo seria pretensiosa a tentativa de tratar de forma abrangente e exaustiva as múltiplas e distintas vertentes que configuram as práticas associativas imigrantes. Procurou-se, sim, oferecer aos leitores um conjunto de contributos importantes para o conhecimento do associativismo imigrante em Portugal, que evidenciam algumas das suas mais recentes tendências.
A Emergência das Migrações no Feminino
A presença crescente das mulheres nos fluxos migratórios de e para Portugal foi um dos dois aspetos da imigração em Portugal a que o Fórum Gulbenkian Migrações dedicou a sua atenção em 2010/2011. O fórum baseou-se na realização de um conjunto de workshops em que participaram atores do terreno, representantes das comunidades de imigrantes, agentes das entidades oficiais e académicos e teve por finalidade fazer um diagnóstico da situação das migrações no feminino e apresentar uma série de recomendações sobre o tema dirigidas aos responsáveis públicos, às organizações da sociedade civil e aos próprios migrantes. O presente volume dá precisamente conta da investigação, do debate e das recomendações sobre as migrações no feminino produzido pelo Fórum sob a coordenação de Pedro Góis e José Carlos Marques, ambos do Centro de Estudos Sociais da Universidade de Coimbra.
Empreendedorismo Imigrante
Este número temático procura disponibilizar uma caracterização extensa de políticas que promovem o empreendedorismo étnico em diversos países, sendo motivado pelo objectivo de governos nacionais e municipais de criarem um ambiente conducente à definição e desenvolvimento de PMEs, em geral, e de negócios de imigrantes, em particular. Adicionalmente, ilustra também como o terceiro sector tem tido um papel crucial no reforço do empreendedorismo imigrante e fornece indicações acerca de como melhor abordar este assunto no futuro a um nível governamental.
Diaspora Nationalism and Jewish Identity in Habsburg Galicia
The triumph of Zionism has clouded recollection of competing forms of Jewish nationalism vying for power a century ago. This study explores alternative ways to construct the modern Jewish nation. Jewish nationalism emerges from this book as a Diaspora phenomenon much broader than the Zionist movement. Like its non-Jewish counterparts, Jewish nationalism was first and foremost a movement to nationalize Jews, to construct a modern Jewish nation while simultaneously masking its very modernity. Diaspora Nationalism and Jewish Identity in Habsburg Galicia traces this process in what was the second largest Jewish community in Europe, Galicia. The history of this vital but very much understudied community of Jews fills a critical lacuna in existing scholarship while revisiting the broader question of how Jewish nationalism - or indeed any modern nationalism - was born. Based on a wide variety of sources, many newly uncovered, this study challenges the still-dominant Zionist narrative by demonstrating that Jewish nationalism was a part of the rising nationalist movements in Europe.

Remembering and Imagining the Holocaust
This is a meditation on memory and on the ways in which memory has operated in the work of writers for whom the Holocaust was a defining event. It is also an exploration of the ways in which fiction and drama have attempted to approach a subject so resistant to the imagination. Beginning with W. G. Sebald, for whom memory and the Holocaust were the roots of a special fascination, Bigsby moves on to consider those writers Sebald himself valued, including Arthur Miller, Anne Frank, Primo Levi and Peter Weiss, and those whose lives crossed in the bleak world of the camps, in fact or fiction. The book offers a chain of memories. It sets witness against fiction, truth against wilful deceit. It asks the question who owns the Holocaust - those who died, those who survived to bear witness, those who appropriated its victims to shape their own necessities.
Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue
A study of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue as musical work, historical event and cultural document.
Morgenthau, Law and Realism
Although he is widely regarded as the 'founding father' of realism in International Relations, this book argues that Hans J. Morgenthau's legal background has largely been neglected in discussions of his place in the 'canon' of IR theory. Morgenthau was a legal scholar of German-Jewish origins who arrived in the United States in 1938. He went on to become a distinguished professor of Political Science and a prominent commentator on international affairs. Rather than locate Morgenthau's intellectual heritage in the German tradition of 'Realpolitik', this book demonstrates how many of his central ideas and concepts stem from European and American legal debates of the 1920s and 1930s. This is an ambitious attempt to recast the debate on Morgenthau and will appeal to IR scholars interested in the history of realism as well as international lawyers engaged in debates regarding the relationship between law and politics, and the history of International Law.
